    Well after just over a month 2 out of my 3 GHB1 batteries start flickering near the end of one bowl. This is with even rotation of the batteries. Also my bowls are small and I vape between 3-4 temp. I will be waiting for more accurate specs on these supposedly new GHB2 batteries before I buy.

    There is nothing wrong with that, working normally. Most chargers will charge between 4.1-4.2v

    I don't mind paying premium for a custom battery but then I want them up to spec. If they are 750mah then thats what it should be or pretty damn close. If I remember correctly in mooch's test he tested eight batteries and not one had 750mah, I think the closest was around 610mah and all eight...

    A lot of great info coming out. So according to what @Joel W. is seeing with the Amp draw makes more sense. 5.6A I can definitely see these batteries handling. But the reddit link, thanks @MoltenTiger, is worrisome. Never mind the fact that, if I am paying $7 a battery, I want them to...

    Yes they do. This is most likely for venting reasons. Instead of a battery exploding when to much amps are drawn it will vent easily through those holes.

    Your absolutely correct. I am in no way saying they don't know what they are doing and using the wrong battery or anything like that. Obviously it works or we would have batteries venting left and right. Its just I am trying to understand how they are doing it. I am almost 95% positive that...

    The size is on the GH site, also another member measured much earlier in this thread. They are 12630's or 12.4mmx63mm to be exact. In order to custom make their own battery would cost a hell of a lot more R+D and production costs then the GH itself. There is only about 4-5 major battery...

    BY the way it seem these batteries, 12630 are possibly used in battery packs for notebooks and wheelchairs. Although I can find them referenced for those battery packs I cannot find specs on the individual batteries.

    Yes these are most likely IMR "Safe Chemistry" batteries. IMR are the only batteries used in the e-cig/vaping world, especially when vapers use mechanical mods that have no circuitry. But once again there are no batteries on the market right now that are as small as the GH batteries that can...

    I've said it before and I'll say it again there is no way these batteries can handle that many Amps. I have been e-cig/vaping for a very long time so have extensive knowledge when it comes to batteries and their specs. These batteries are just too small to be able to handle that amount of...

    Don't use it. The bare metal of the battery will touch the GH body and could short out. Never use a battery with damaged wrapper. And since you will be throwing it out if you could rip the wrapping all the way off the battery and see what is written on the battery itself. Most batteries...

    There is no way in hell these batteries can handle 10A or above. They There is no way in hell these batteries can handle 10A or more. In fact I highly doubt they are able to handle even 7A. The fact its a 45W heater has always perplexed me. Just to get a 10A rating you have to go to at...

    The screens get turned if you have a some resin at the top of the threads on the body. Acts like glue against the screen and will turn the screen when you unscrew the mouthpiece. Just keep that top part clean and the screen will never unscrew.

    This is something I did with all my vaping mechanical mods. ISO cleaned all the threads and contacts. Make sure no grit or machine oil.

    Yay! Yesterday I finally got my May 21, 2015 pre-order shipping confirmation. Boo! Canada Post will be locked-out on Monday so my GH will be at the border limbo until Canada Post gets settled. Hopefully it won't be long.

    I wish the cutoff was a little lower at 3.6v These batteries drop down quickly from 4.2v and level off the longest at 3.7v. Might have gotten an extra bowl if they did this and it wouldn't harm the battery.

    In their announcement they said they all shipped May 2015 pre-orders but mine is a May 2015 pre-rder and although I got an Address confirmation June 22 they still have not shipped mine. And since Canada Post is going on strike Thursday, even if they ship soon my package will be held at the...
