Evic or Vamo?

[matt1988]

Ok thanks, next pay day I shall order a charger, spare battery, 2 18350 batts and a 18350 tube

This vaping lark was (initially) meant to save me money lmao!

It could save your life almost makes saving money of secondary importance.

I'd save the money by not getting the 18350 stuff unless you really want it for a reason.

Good luck getting an 18350 tube. I've searched the world and can't find one in stock

They were in stock at pink mule last time I looked...

evic users - do you find the 5v/11w limit to be a pain?

am I right in thinking that this limit would only be overcome with a new control head release, and is something that couldn't be changed with an update to the software?

[womble]

I've never found it a problem, but then I've never been over 5 volts on any mod.

i.m.o. an eVic with an 18350 is kind of mad. A standard mini LT using 18350s gets through the batteries in no time. An eVic would be worse.
Looks gorgeous though.....possibly the best looking thing ever.
Even an AW 2000mah in an eVic is kind of disappointing.

oh, in relation to the 5v thing - I've no idea. Most of my atomizers are 1.8 or 2.2/2.4 and even 4v is plenty for me.

I use that battery in mine, I hadn't thought about it, but I suppose it does go through it a bit quicker than say my provari. Not that much that it bothers me though.

Maybe your AW 2000mah is on its way out. Mine lasts about the same that its does in the vamo.

Ive bought 3400mah batterys and they do last an awful long time but they take a day to charge, so Id say its best having a couple of each.

I haven't really needed more than 11W on an eVic, Vamo or Tesla and most of the time I'm at around 9W or less unless I'm outdoors. I use an aga-t2 coiled at 1.8-2.0 Ohm mostly.
I'm not sure if it would be firmware or new head to increase the limit.

I have occasionally found the 10 second cut-off to be inconvenient though for when I want a nice long draw.

what battery charger are you using as i have 3400mah batterys and they take about 3hrs im using the nitecore intellicharger v4

[matt1988]

It may have been through the eVic its taking that long to charge? Its ok ill just stick it on whenever I'm close to a power supply, that way it will keep it topped up

[djs]

I'm lost with all the quoting..

My 3400 batteries take whatever it takes to charge 3400 @ 420mah per hour taking into account normal variables and "loss".

3hrs is mental. That's some serious bit of charging.....

My AWs are on their 10th cycle at most. I would expect them to last no more or no less in a Vamo or eVic. Either way. 3400 is the killer option.
