Would that be the same for the Woodvil?

It should be, size wise, but to be able to use it in a WOODvil, you will need to mod it. The negative contact, on chip, has to have contact with the ground of the mod, which is the metal interior of appropriate mods. That's why they are used only in metal mods, so that the contact, which is on side of chip, makes contact with the metal. You can sand a small bit of anodization off of the contact point in the Grand interior to make that contact but it will take some modding with wire or metal strip for a Woodvil. And it will work best if you put a piece of eraser or such to keep the chip in position as there is enough room in a Grand to allow the chip to move. Somewhere on this thread a couple of people showed what they used to hold the chip in contact with the side of the Grand.

Thanks. Good thing BF knows how to do such things. :p I don't know if I'll be getting a kick but it's good info to know. I'd rather have a VV mini Woodvil.

I would probably not have gotten a kick if I didn't have a couple of metal tube mods to use it in and had already discovered the wonders of VV by purchasing a Buzz Pro because I was dyeing to do VV while waiting for the VV Woodvil. It works great in the Roughstack (well it will when I locate it, in the house, where it is hiding) and Don, which I already had.


Hugs, Feisty Alice

A little while ago the BP stopped. The particular set of batteries didn't last as long as the others. They may have sat too long, in storage. Probably been at least a week since they were charged. AW LiFePO4 3v 500 mAh 16340. I did get the subtle hint that voltage was dropping because right before they stopped I turned the voltage wheel up just a bit. When I took them out they were 2.26v and 2.71 volt. They lasted such a short time, after about an hour of vaping, in past day, they only lasted a few minutes in the switched position.

As I've said before, I'm using the one year old LiFePO4s because I have them and they fit the Buzz Pro, 16 mm diameter. I'm getting much more vape time from the Powerizer set from NotCigs and the AW IMR 3.7v 550 mAH 16340 although they are about the same age as the LiFePO4s.

Using the 18340s in REO will be a nice step up.

I get the same hint before mine stops working .I check the voltage on the batteries I am getting the same results 2.7 volts when the mod no longer fires. I find this odd shouldn't there still be enough juice left to run the atomizer in a stacked configuration.
I noticed some people saying there batteries come out of there vv mods at different voltages mine are always exactly the same .I was poking around Mikes forum the other night trying to take in some info and he said not all batteries are created equal, they have to be hand matched to get them to discharge at the same rate

Is there any info posted there about how you go about hand matching them?
