depends on the resistance of the coil!
batteries tend to go from about 4.2V at full charge down to whatever - I charge mine when they get to about 3.7V
wattage = volts² / resistance

oooo shiny very nice indeed

where did you get the box?

UKDTweak said:
That's a smart looking box, 18500.. how many batteries does it take and any chance of a picture of the internals?
I see the same picture posted on the SVB FB page

They come from SoulVaperBaby on UKV and/or Facebook.

I have my eye on one of his new DNA40 'Trigger' designs.

As Monkeyspank said, you work it out based on the resistance of the coil you put in verses the charge on your battery, that's why as your batteries drains, your power diminishes and your vap weakens with each hit on a mech, this is why I prefer regulated mods.

This may be a silly question, but its bugging me.

What wattage does a mechanical mod fire at is there a way of figuring it out?

it depends on your battery and resistances of coil... ohms law.

for example a freashly new good battery will be around 3.7v depending on make and model, using a 1.5 ohm resistence.. will give you 9.1 watts of power.

There are kicks and other devices to boost power.

Thanks for the replies, using my manhattan mod, Efest 18650 , coils are 0.18 ohms at the moment.

I'm struggling to get a good vape (I want to be chuckin dem cloudz) at the moment, my builds just aren't what they use to be! building on my Geyser quad coiling this morning, done two builds so far, both have been a absolutely terrible vape.

I think its about time I got a Boxmod, Just cant bring myself to spend some of the prices for a plastic box and some wires.

Anyone recommend a good one?

How long does ground shipping from Fasttech take? The package was sent on 29/12/2014 and it says that it's departed HK yesterday, how much longer should I wait? (Darn Batteries!)

Thanks

For a battery order you could be waiting 2 months for them from FastTech.

On a fresh charged battery with a 0.18 coil you will be pulling ~ 98 watts.

Edit: I use an IPV3 regularly and its a nice mod, will go to 165 watts if you are so inclined and have lungs of steel!
The Sigelei 100w is worth a look too.

I sometimes wonder if I'm the only person that doesn't care about clouds of vapour. I never cared about what I exhaled when I smoked and don't now either. Seems to hit everyone but me, been vaping over 4 years now and all I want is flavour and the hit.

Try fresh batteries or a kick; which would require smaller poss. new batteries anyway.

Not at all, there are plenty of people who chase the flavour and not the clouds. Its probably the safer way to vape TBH.

This. Clouds are fun and all, but I like a good flavour much more.

ah so I'm going to be looking at 100w device minimum to get around the same performance?

a kick? never heard of this

Yeah

kaptainmarc said:

A kick module tops out a 15 watts IIRC so may not be for you.

My Cloupor Mini just arrived, got to say im impressed with it, very sturdy and heavy little mod, tested the voltage output using an inline voltmeter and my magma running a dual 1.1ohm coil and its damn near spot on, far better that my
Hana Clone that at 30 watts is 1volt under what it should be, the Cloupor is within 0.3 of a volt

Great stuff, every ones feedback on this little guy seems to be really positive so far, it seems like the Istick has really met its match.

You don't need to be building that low or using 100w to chuck a decent cloud mate

Also, clouds and flavour are not mutually exclusive IMO.

^ This is very true.

Dunno what I'm gonna do with all these empties.... :S
20ml glass bottles with pippets on the left, 15ml ones on the right.

Uncle Petey · 9 Jan 2015 at 12:07

^Make your own juice and fill 'em up?

Oh yeah, it seems my issues with the Plume Veil may have been down to the juice - Strawberry fields...
I've since done another build (0.9/28g dual) and I dunno what it is about it, but it seems to have a very narrow range of niceness and it likes to be on almost empty wick or it gives a harsh throat hit for some reason.
It does it in either the MX2 or the Plume, whereas my own juices vape smooth regardless.
I dunno...

I have my istick with me and set them side by side, the Cloupor mini looks barely a mm longer and wider... but is a Lot heavier, I actually think its heavier than my Hana Clone and not far off the Vaporflask.... its surprising, but comfy to hold.

From my limited testing, works great and hits very close to the volts it should for the coil im running, plus tried a friends atty on it too and ran the same tests/wattage on my Hana Clone to compare, the hana is way off the higher the wattage you go up, at 30watts the hana is 1volt under what it should be, but the Cloupor is damn near spot on, im very pleased and glad I have 2 more on order...
