I didn't I put a meter on it it was reading 5.3 volts and I did the math. So its 9.36 watts

Honestly I don't know yet I just got the 3.0 in the mail about 5 hours ago

regarding warranty on my XL ... i got an email today which repeats that it takes 4 to 6 weeks for warranty work.
btw, i don't know that i even registered my XL ... there's a page on the Vapage site to do that.... but they do have my sales record, so maybe i did...

I'm guessing that registration was for any that bought from another vendor--not direct from Vapage. (There are some brick and mortars that sell them and maybe even some non us vendors.)
I don't think there will be an issue, Ukeman.
But, if anyone finds out we Must register -- please pass that info on!
and --- Chopperized is pretty sweet!

I have for you some interesting:
1) i lost my bottle seal - two 5,7x1,2 orings founded on the bottle does the trick
2) O-ring on the atty to regulate the air flowYou can also put it under the nose cone:
2) stand the bottle improves airflow, plus a bottle sitting stiffly:
3) my XL second skin v2:
5) and skin voltage meter for XL:
"processing" horror's been a month ago -
I STILL LOVE MY XL!

Has anyone tried the 4.7 volt Meglodon battery sold by electronicstix in the XL ?
Until The Kick becomes more widely available looks like a reasonable bet for $6.50.

I'm not saying it's not a good idea, I don't really know. I've heard good things about the 4.8v batteries, but even though I bought some I don't have anything yet to try them in so can't speak from firsthand experience.
To get HV vaping for not much more than 3.7v is a pretty good deal (2 batts + charger is like $25?). However, it is just ONE voltage and I personally wish I'd saved my money and just bought the Kick (little more money at $45 but then it'd work with all my other batteries and charger!).

Think I hit your realisation. Not only do you have the flexibility of voltages but you are not limited to a single mod with The Kick.
I have close to more 18650's than I know what to do with and they are a rock solid performer for me. Think I will stick with them.

I've been trying so hard to make my HH.357 510 1.5 ohm short barrel perform as well as my Aero 1.5 510 on the XL and it just won't do it. The HH.357 on the XL makes me spit out juice so much I look like I'm dipping.
The Aero hardly ever floods, rarely spits juice into my mouth and produces more vapor and taste on the same battery (at the same discharge state).You hit the nail on the head, I've had consistently awesome experiences dripping with the HH.357s but it has been almost impossible to make them hit that well on the XL. That chamber under the coil that makes them so perfect for dripping makes them hard to manage on a bottom feeder.
The Aero is the atomizer that turned my XL from being a potential paperweight into being my (current) main PV.
I've been playing around with the idea of creating a fixed wattage regulator using a capacitor based circuit for my XL. I.e. instead of providing a constant voltage/amperage for as long as you hold the button, this would provide a 3 to 4 second constant ~8 watts at 1.5ohms and then when you depleted the capacitor you'd be down to whatever the battery could provide. While you aren't holding the button the capacitor is recharging. This should be a simpler/cheaper circuit to implement but as it stands right now it would have to be an "outside" the XL kind of mod. (Breadboard strapped to the side).
Hopefully this doesn't need one of the coke can sized capacitors the kids use on their car stereos. (edit... looks like it would... a 4 farad capacitor is about 11" long...) I must have been vaping a dry carto when I came up with this idea...
Whatever I come up with, I'll make the design Open Source (of some flavor that allows for commercial use).

I've posted this before to get the 1.5 357 to stop spitting use a drip tip with a wide hole in it and it will stop spitting try it it really works if you go on the 357 thread hannan even recommends using a wide hole drip tip i never had good luck with the aero atty I couldn't get them to work at all and gave up on them

It is so odd to me to hear people say the reservoir is the thing that makes the 357 not work good on the xl to me its the best part of the 357 on a bottom feeder once you know how much to feed it it can't be beat way less time feeding a atty and more time vaping
