That's looking really good bud, my woodworking skills leave a fair bit to be desired, I'm great at building with large scale think 2*4 lol. Nice to see you using my favourite pocket blade as well. The Stanley 5901 pocket knife was my workmate when I used to do firework display, used to go through a boc of 50 blade's in 2 months lol.

Well I was making a brew and needed to put fresh batteries in my parallel mod. Pulled old ones out and it ripped the wrapper. Had a look in mod and noticed the tab was snagging on the wrapper. Reached over and grabbed 2 fresh batteries ( paired Sony vtc4 ) and poped them in checking I had bent the tab properly so it doesn't snag. Well it dident snag but idiot here put one battery in upside down. Holy hell do these get hot fast. It was less than 1.5 seconds till I had ripped the batteries out and they were 70°c + smoke pouring from the posi terminal
It goes to show do not get complacent. 99.99% I allways double check the polarity before putting bats in this time I was distracted. The mid thankfully survived but looks like I've destroyed £14 worth of batteries. Please don't be a muppet like me and double check your polarity.
Question these still have 4v in each cell according to multimeter, what's best way to discharge so I can recycle them safely.
Cheers ( the new forum idiot )

Yep it is that simple, don't use a naked flame , if the insulator disk is torn,damaged you can replace with a bit of thin plastic cut from a milk bottle

Lots of schematics here www.modmaker.co.uk/Mod-Making-InformationWith the pure unregulated builds the vape will decrease in quality when batteries drop to about 3.8 with parallel or 6.9 with series. Much the same as a "mech" mod. Regulated devices the vape stays consistent till battery cut off point. Parallel box will last me a full day on 1 set of batteries. If I'm using my series unregulated mods batteries last about 2-3 hours lol

Hiyas Q I have a sneaky suspicion it was you that mentioned vanilla mint in a thread yonks back and I was rather unsure , however it's turned into one of my favourite adv. I have to variants that I've made up and both are scrummy. Version 1 Tpa french vanilla delux 4% Lt natural mint 4% ( inawera mint mix 2% ) can be used instead Tpa vanilla bean ice cream 8% Steep 10 days Version 2 swap the french vanilla delux for tpa Belgium waffle @4% this is very moreish as well but requires a 3 week steep

Don't have any pics but I noticed this in a series mod I built, to correct this I ripped out the contacts and made some out of 0.8mm thick pure copper with a few turns of a stiff spring behind ( spring takes no current) .
