I'm just going to leave this here for your viewing pleasure.

Removing the internals will void your warranty. I'd wait to hear from RBT before doing anything that drastic. So it will still heat up? Just has a bad odor and taste? That might go away over time. Maybe set it aside awhile and try again? Your battery should be okay as long as the casing didn't...

Yep. Illumn and IMR are the two best vendors for batteries, cases, sleeves, and wraps. Advice to 18650 noobs: Pick up some battery rewraps as well because the original wraps on your batteries will start to wear over time, and that can lead to shorts. I like getting multiple colors so I can...

Wrap it up. With high-powered batts, safety is all about responsible use.

Not quite. The female GonG came loose on my beta Zion, and I took that opportunity to take it apart and see what made it tick. That was a choice I made because it was a beta unit that I knew would eventually be replaced when the production units began rolling out, so I figured I would see what...

The battery choice was one of the very first features that drew me to the Zion (and then Milaana) in the first place. Since I vape eliquid as well, I already have a full set of 18650s anyway. I always have three sets fully charged at any time. One set drains, I flip batteries and set the drained...

Bought this Palm 2.0 in hopes of it being a good "concert vape," but it wasn't what I needed. It's seen some use but still works exactly as it did the day I bought it. I have cleaned the screens thoroughly, and there is no odor, but as you can see in the pics, there is quite a bit of...

Selling my Solo equipment to raise some needed funds. The Solo itself it practically brand new -- used only a few times -- but is missing the cap. Here's the story: The battery in my original Solo crapped out on me while still under warranty, so I got a new unit to replace the old one. I also...

This is a good place for info and updates. Here's a pretty in-depth explanation, maybe more than you want, but I couldn't resist linking to an ironically named vape vendor. :D

My advice, go with these or these. Cannot offer personal experience with efest, but I've not heard stellar reports on their batteries. Their chargers are solid. A lot of good info in the 18650 battery thread pinned in the related equipment forum.

I notice Wake and Vape and Vape Dr. both have some...I'm guessing it's the mesh?...in the air intake next to the stem port. Mine came with nothing in that space. Wonder what the difference is. Is the mesh there to keep particles from entering the air path? Of course I am still waiting to be...

The Mighty/Crafty look like they were put together in a Chinese plastics factory. Give me woodshop any day.

You definitely want IMR (or INR even better), especially for a non-regulated device. ICR batts are less predictable and more volatile. A good general explanation. Edit: Another good source with more in-depth explanations.

RBT included some lavender in a little bag with my package, which gives it legitimacy as a device for legal use.

Fits perfectly in this style case. http://www.illumn.com/batteries-chargers-and-powerpax-carriers/efest-3-x-18650-zippered-carry-pouch.html

It fits perfectly length-wise, but the GonG end is just a bit too fat to close the case. I'll come up with a solution, though. Yeah, man, it's like the perfect storm. My contact recently moved, and my own supply is still maturing. I'm certain it's not dry around here -- just is for me. Having a...

I would love nothing more than to provide that for you right now. Unfortunately, it will be a few weeks before I will be able to accommodate (see above.) I'm sure others will produce in the meantime.
