3x 1300 mAh in series is still 1300mAh no matter what the battery...

so a 1300 mAh 3 cell battery will be equal to about 14.48 Watt Hours.
2x 18650 at 2500 mAh will be equal to 18.5 Watt Hours.
My 2 2800 mAh 18650 equal 20.72 watt hours..

Simply put the dual 18650 will just outlast the 1300 lipo, plus you can change easily to a new fresh pair if your out and about and no usb charge available.

It was a 2S Lipo I ordered so 2x1300mah, although I know it doesn't work that was it was just for representative purposes. It worked out at around 9.75 Watt hours according to Escribe

I couldn't find a 3S Lipo above about 500mah that would fit in the space.

Just sat down with some paper a pencil and drawn everything out so I can make sure my measurements are correct.

The box internally is 78mm tall and 56mm wide.

I'm going to have to put the Keystone battery sled on a serious diet.

I need to lose a chunk off both corners one side to get it to fit flush against the wall due to the bits in the corners for the magnets.

I then need to do the same the the top corner the opposite side to clear the of the 510 connection


Here's a photo showing it roughly, albeit with the 510 connector needing to be around 3-4mm further to the right

if you think that box is tight, you should have tried the 1550p.. its a bit smaller again lol
I had to grind down the top and bottom of the sled, plus the corners of the sled, slightly grind a half mm of one side and the other ground away completely... but i also had to grind out the corner screw posts in the box, but leaving the tops intact for magnets, so from about 1.5mm down was ground away. Plus i completely ground away one bottom corner post.
For your box you should be able to get away with grinding down the corners of the battery sled on one side so it can fit in between the upper and lower magnet posts, it should squeeze in and give you another 1.5mm space between the sled and the side the chip will go on, i also ground down the spacers on the chip fitting kit so i could get the chip closer to the box side, might help you too...
I would suggest you get a 22mm 510, that 28mm will never look right as its too big for the box and a 22mm will fit in your box as it sits if you grind the sled corners to get it closer to the right hand wall... but stick with varitube, Not a fat daddy, its wider around the threads and longer so not a good fit...

Here is a close up of mine inside...

Stealthvape haven't got any 22mm Varitubes at the moment so I ordered a 28mm as I can swap them over once they get them back in.

I see what you mean that 1550p is even tighter, is it wider but shorter?

I'll need to grind both top corners of the sled as the box is 56mm wide internally minus the magnet posts. The nut for the 510 is 12mm plus 7mm to clear the post plus 39mm for the sled so I need to lose 2mm off that corner to get the nut on the 510
 
Yeah i know stealthvape are out of both the 14 and 22mm 510 :( but they do a generic which is just the same as the veritube :)

The 1550p is shorter and narrower than the CNC box....

CNC box is listed as 84/60/24...
1550p is listed as 80/55/25

If i place the 1550p on top of the CNC box and line up one side and the bottom... you can easily see the CNC box is taller and wider. It actually looks like the 1550p would almost fit inside the CNC box.

So I found that my 0.6ohm single coil wasn't cutting it. At 40w, an extended hit would deplete the wick and I'd get a slight burnt taste at the end. So, dual coils should give me a greater juice capacity, right?

Since the Lemo 2 has very small post holes (and I'd rather use them than wrap round the screws), I picked up some 30ga wire, wrapped two coils, 10 wraps, 2mm inner diameter, and plugged them both in. Came to 1.3ohms, a bit of a tight, fiddly build, but it came out spot on with even heating. Better flavour, better clouds, much faster ramp up, and at 40w, I can't even inhale enough to get a dry hit.

Have been considering building my own mod next, good to see what's going on here! :D
 
You managed to squeeze a dual coil build in a Lemo 2... damn... i use a .2ohm titanium coil, 24awg around a 3mm bit, about 4 wraps... hitting it at 100w for 1s, then 40w till temp limit drops the power to hold it there... love these wee tanks, have two of them with different juices in each. but never thought about putting a dual in them... then again i could do it with NI200.. but i prefer TI wire now too much..

You should give your own build a go, there is something so satisfying about vaping on a mod you built yourself, im proud of all my builds, especially my dual 18650 hammond boxes as they are so tiny for the power they pack. and i know few people will ever have a similar mod.
 
Indeed, I love my Lemo 2, granted I haven't tried many other high end tanks (V2 cigalike -> basic vape pen -> odyssey -> aspire nautilus when the POS odyssey tank broke -> istick 20w -> wismec presa 40w + lemo 2), but I'm so satisfied with this I feel no need to.

Temp control is the next step, and it seems silly to me to go and buy a new unit when I definitely have the capability of building one. Limited at the moment by working in a vape shop though, really helps to be using the products I sell. Soon as I start again at uni though, it's happening, and seeing your steps is really helpful!
 
So I've had a few days now with the aromamizer RDTA few pros and cons I've found over the last few days.

Pros:

Big big flavour
lots of airflow
nice cloud production
Build quality is nice but could be better
very simple tank
Doesn't leak whatsoever
Wicking is very easy, just like a basic dripper build

Cons:

Some threading is rough, once its bedded in it should be fine though
AFC ring is essentially a vape band with holes in it, it does wriggle loose in my pocket
Stock deck isn't the easiest to build on, 2 post 4 hole velocity style deck is out on the 22nd though
Guzzles juice like you wouldn't believe, 12ml so far today!
Is roughly 23mm not 22mm OD - not a biggie for me as it still sits nicely on all my mods

Can't wait to pit the cthulhu V2 against it tomorrow - with a bit of luck.
 
Just ordered a Billow V2 because it looked good, should be here within 3 days if it comes into stock today. Hopefully I won't get dry hits with an RTA because it has massive air and juice holes
 
Vapemail, my Coilmaster Tab 521 and Free coil wraping V3 kit have arrived, nice bit of kit, all be it plastic...

Will be purchasing one of these so will be nice to read your comparison.
 
Mine should arrive today. Only problem is that I can't remember whether I put my delivery address as work or home. I hope I put home as I'm on site at the moment and won't be back in the office for a couple of weeks :(
 
Is there such a thing as a small/compact vape stick I can buy that takes juices ? I currently have an MVP 2.0 ... buts its not exactly something I can take about with me.
 
Jeezy... upgrade the firmware, install this chip, reconfigure that coil, ID vs OD, this wattage over that wattage...??!!

I don't know whether to run and hide over in the advanced overclocking threads (whichI seem to understand better) or start building my own box mod using a Corsair 900D and a 1600W EVGA SuperNova P2... The latter at least would be impressive!!

Actually, joking aside, I think I do actually have 'coil whine' on my Vape... a little electronic whine when I hold the fire button down, which you can hear before teh atty starts crackling!

Some cheaper mods do actually whine when under stress, this is down to the way the mod is trying to undervolt to get your desired wattage.
