All parts have arrived and she is up and running. Wow now I believe the hype. This a fine little machine and so easy to use. Thanks Super X. This little charmer has a happy home and will get a lot of use. Plus your videos have been very helpful. I really like the fit and finish of everything. Thank you everyone for your help. I will be asking for more help as I go along.

Very nice! Just ask away - plenty of helpful folks here!

Roughly how long will a charge on an aw imr 18650 battery last with moderate usage? What is the best way to test the battery level?

 

[ElConquistador]

I was curious about the battery time, and worried I would over-discharge the battery. But carrying it around all day, vaping moderately, I don't think I've drawn my battery down much below 3.9 volts, I'm surprised by that.

I just pull my battery out when I start wondering about it and check it with a cheapy Harbor Freight meter, you can usually find a coupon for a free one if you have a store nearby. It's not good for resistivity, but fine for voltage.

Battery life is dependent on ohm of coil, length of hit and frequency of hit. I run a 1 ohm coil and the battery will last between 1/2 a bottle and 3/4. So I just change it every morning and at about 3pm. You'll need a volt meter or charger with a built in meter to test the battery.

On a AW IMR 1600 I can get about half bottle before i know the vape is weak and the flavor profile changes. On a Sony or LG I can get a bit more. It will not take long before you will know when to change. When you start cranking down on the button or it takes longer for a good hit it will be time to change. I spent the first week or so checking the battery often and now I am always in the 3.7-3.8 range when I reach for more power. I like the xtar VP1 charger because it lets me know the voltage of the battery when I charge it.

I have a few volt meters kicking around. Thanks for the info. Time to buy some lower nic juice!

 

[Rat2chat2]

to you 2buildawall . That is absolutely gorgeous.

 

[FACE MEAT]

Russ, looks like it went to a worthy home.

2buildawall,Congrats! I've found that 12mg in a RDA kicks harder than 18mg in a clearo. In a pinch, you could add some PG or VG to your existing liquids.

 

[super_X_drifter]

Yes congrats. That is a beautiful mod that was cherished by its previous owner. I'm very glad to see that you are as happy to get it as I was when I got it

I am really enjoying my new REO! I am going to purchase some VG to cut my juice. I must say I like the draw on the RM2 without the hole drilled out. Glad I tried it first before drilling.

Russ, in one of your coil wrapping vids you have a jig. How helpful is the jig for rolling coils? My coils are ok but they always have a slight angle to them. Not sure that matters. I am getting the ohms I want. Thanks!
