JT! Posted November 2, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 2, 2015 I don't think the mod is going to make much of a difference to battery life. It's more down to your batteries and coil resistance.What batteries are you using? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've got some decent batteries and a charger though from when I was using a different mod. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JT! Posted November 2, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 2, 2015 Looks like the battery in that is 1500 mAh. Look into a mod that takes two 18650 batteries. I use sony vtc 4's. That will give you 2100mAh per battery, so 4200mAh combined. Almost will last you 3 times longer.I don't think it matters what regulated mod you get the battery life is going to be the same in any of them... unless of course you buy a mod that only takes one battery.What batteries do you currently have?

FamilyBiker Posted November 2, 2015 Report Share Posted November 2, 2015 heard good things about the istick 50,has 4400 mah so should last the average vaper like 2-3 dayz and the advanced 1-2 what i am using atm is the kanger KBOX,just simple and sturdy,works a treatits using 18650s though, a freshly charged one is lasting exactly a whole day for me (veritas @0.4ohm @20-25W) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best 18650's for a regulated on the market atm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weirdoku Posted November 2, 2015 Report Share Posted November 2, 2015 Anyone got experience mixing vanilla custard flavour? I've tried 3 times now, 10%, 20% and 25% flavour to VG base but they all taste like wet socks haha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JT! Posted November 4, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 4, 2015 Can anyone give me a quick rundown on TC. Why doesn't it work with Kanthal? How does it detect temperature? What are the pros and cons of nickel, titanium and steel for TC?I think I'd like to switch over to using TC especially on my RDA so I don't get a lungful of death when I forget to drip.

*gentlydoesit Posted November 4, 2015 Report Share Posted November 4, 2015 It works on resistance gain in vir. As the wire heats up so too does the resistance of the wire in a mathematically similar way. That's why only certain wire works, kanthals heat v resistance curve is too flat, given kanthal has been designed to keep the same resistance under load.Nickel has recently gotten a bad name, because of leeching and being poisonous mostly. Ti can burst into flames if it gets too hot and if 'glown' will produce Ti02, also fairly poisonous to us humans. Not sure what steel your referring to??Not trying to put you off, just a general heads up to tread carefully with a tc build. That lung full of death may well take a different form from a dry hit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JT! Posted November 5, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 5, 2015 (edited) Me either with steel. I just noticed it was an upgrade on the app.Does nickle / ti wire have the same resistance as kanthal (when they're the same gauge?)Would you suggest I go with nickel or titanium?

Pashley26 Posted November 5, 2015 Report Share Posted November 5, 2015 (edited) I bought an Aspire Nautilus tank, because I was fed up with my Kanger Sub tank leaking. How anyone can rate the Kanger tank so highly amazes me, the Aspire tank and coil is worlds better, and £5 cheaper. Loads more vapour, a better taste, no leaks, no burning, no spitting. Very happy with it. Edited November 5, 2015 by Pashley26 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
*gentlydoesit Posted November 5, 2015 Report Share Posted November 5, 2015 Stainless upgrade. It's so the ohm meter is more stable using it ;)No, it has way lower resistance. I'd recommend 30awg to start. 10×2.5mm wraps will come out about .05Personally I prefer ti, though it's much harder to use Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weirdoku Posted November 5, 2015 Report Share Posted November 5, 2015 My factory coils haven't leaked either, but they aren't suitable for high watts though. My 0.5ohm coil started burning about 25 watts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

*gentlydoesit Posted November 6, 2015 Report Share Posted November 6, 2015 Between 30-28awg should work.Thinner wire has less flavour, 30awg is the lowest I'll go for a single strand coil. 28awg is going to need quite a few wraps so the coil will be on the big side. Alternatively it can be twisted with kanthal to raise the resistance. Kanthal doesn't get as hot as nickel at the same voltage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bellus system looks immense! I really like the design of how it all goes together.How long is the lead time? Never looked at a twin coil set up, I assume it will rise batteries twice as fast as they are in parallel? Anyone tried this?Also battery tanks. How bloody expensive are these! WTF. Not sure I can justify the cost on them. Does the battery box really matter? Or is it just the quality of the batteries? These are the batteries I currently have Torchy 18500 so it looks like I will need another size anyway as most box mods seem to take 18650Cheers, Ash Edited November 6, 2015 by Ash-Kennard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ash-Kennard Posted November 6, 2015 Report Share Posted November 6, 2015 Right, So I really like the Bellus tank. Buying it now. Found it in stock from evolutionvaping.Need a regulated battery set up. Help please. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
