Okay - Given recent discussions . . .

Just an few FYI's directly from the ECF BIG WIG HIMSELF - "rolygate" :




http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/fo...9007-warning-rechargeable-batteries-apvs.html

(That also includes this statement:
"Stacking batteries and then overdriving them by a factor of 4 or 5 above
their safe marked limit IS NOT SAFE and CANNOT BE SAFE.
")


In Addition there are these ECF - "IMPOTANT NOTICES":


They are Short and Sweet Easy Reading with a lot of Information that is very Interesting . . .
Just Sayin' . . . ;)

well... i sat thinking about this a few minutes to make sure I had it clear in my head... and if the setup will work for the 18350's at the same voltage it should work for 18650's.

One thing to mention is that configuring batteries in serial essentially doubles the voltage.

Seeing voltage is equal to current x resistance, and our resistance isn't changing on our coil I can only assume the vamo has an internal potentiometer to change the perceived resistance across the circuit. Resistance creates heat, so even though the Vamo can handle the stacked batteries, I am sure there is a shortage of lifespan due to this extra heat that is created.

This is purely speculative based on my assumptions of how the circuitry is designed though.

5. 9/17- Long day for me... just got caught up on this thread... even speed reading that took quite a while.:facepalm:

Hipsters vaping- if Apple made a PV they would buy it.

RPAD- Your blog got exciting today! I'm not touching that one. It's a hot topic, and I don't mean the hipster/wanna-be-punk store. :p BTW, if they sold PVs... ugh... "hipsters". Austin, TX has tons of them. :facepalm: I haven't met one that didn't smoke cigarettes.

If the 10 millionth post contest winner really was bilboda, then I do feel a bit sorry for him. Only one friend.
