    The G Pen by Grenco Science

    Omicron and Thermovape are spoken of well here because they generally work for most users. AFAIK, the only people getting paid are registered as such on this BB. Many of the rest of us have had no lack of complaints, suggestions and general gripes, but these two brands offer products which are...

    Gentleman's Brand Vapes

    I think I see the bias here. You don't actually mean "used for hash oil vaping", you mean _marketed_ for such. I know people using (happily for them) eGo-C with both oil and ejuice. I've even "hit" off one (much harder than a milkshake in a straw and wispy vapor) AND they do work FSVO "work"...

    Gentleman's Brand Vapes

    I believe you are ignoring the two currently most popular (AFAIK) ecig types - the eGo-T and eGo-C. Both of these use a "tank" which feeds an atomizer by the Venturi effect - No wicks and no batting. For the smaller cigarette size models (dying out) there is still batting and many (most?) of...

    Discontinued ThermoVape Revolution for concentrates

    You seem to have completely missed either part of the point or just lack some understanding. Simply 12 volts or 5 volts is fairly worthless for any case we're considering. Yes, you could use a voltage divider: A passive divider would be at best 50% efficient going from 12 to 6 volts. If you...

    Discontinued ThermoVape Revolution for concentrates

    Gee, If you'd sell your mini-tube pass-through with switch (in the DIY forum), I'd maybe buy one just for this case - Handle all TV and D9/W9 parts (assuming your wiring and switch can handle the current). Add you micro/mini volt meter to the deal and you''ve got a sale :) -NDA

    Discontinued ThermoVape Revolution for concentrates

    Your computer supplies haves very low efficiency when run well below near the maximum rated load. Expensive ones may approach 85-90%, but most are closer to 65% at low loads. They're also much larger, noisier and are not variable voltage or packages for table top usage. They do make good...

    Discontinued ThermoVape

    Manufacturer's specs: http://www.tenergy.com/RCR123A-3-0V-750mAh-LiFePO4-Rechargeable-Battery Notice the MAXIMUM capacity is 750 mAh - MINIMUM is only 450mAh. Also the recommended charge rate is a very low 90mA with a rate of 450mA being "Rapid" - I'd guess 250mA is a good middle ground...

    Discontinued ThermoVape Revolution for concentrates

    Part of the problem is knowing what to look at and where to look :) There is at least one industry who uses 3-10 Amp power supplies in the interesting voltage range. AND the parts intended for this purpose have already been used by many vape (mostly log, but also D9's VV looks like one)...

    Discontinued ThermoVape Revolution for concentrates

    In a perfect world that would/should be true. Here, on my (was >$3k) notebook, many devices do not work on all but one port. As an example to many here, most 510 ecig 420mAh chargers (well within spec) don't work, but cheaper 220 or 240mAh ones do. Not slower, but not at all (usually its is...

    Discontinued ThermoVape Revolution for concentrates

    You are correct that the USB spec allows devices to "request" only up to 500mA of current. However many non-computer devices ignore the logical protocol and simply tap power from two of the four wires. As a result, nearly all A/C (mains for non-US) and car adapters are rated at 2Amps of...

    Discontinued ThermoVape

    Did you ever try out the 14250s in a 6v Ultra? If so, how did a SV DART (or anything else besides an AVA) do with them? Could you make those (i.e. the 14250 IFR/LiPO4 cells) available from TV directly? -NDA

    The only thing I know of close to your price point is the Riva Indulgence - about $40-50. http://www.liberty-flights.com/product.asp?id=152 http://www.ecigg.org/Indulgence-p/indulgence.htm It has a mechanical switch and can do 6 volts. IMPORTANT NOTE: The Indulgence V4 is 3.7v only. Only...

    Discontinued The Persei Vaporizer for herbs and concentrates.

    Good news about the HVD tops. Who might have guessed there would be an issue with spring compression with 2x18350s ? ;) -NDA

    Discontinued The Persei Vaporizer for herbs and concentrates.

    G, The Persei SS upgrades have appeared on the D9 web site. You said there would be caveats when they got released. Is the fact that the web pages does not mention support for 7.4v operation with 2x18350s in the long tube (that had been my initial guess) one of the caveats? You did say that...

    Discontinued Omicron Vaporizer for oils

    This has been covered elsewhere. Maybe try email or a PM? Also, for the second time in as many weeks - Please look up "Special Pleading" (and don't be foolish enough to ever try it in traffic court :) ). -NDA

    Discontinued Omicron Vaporizer for oils

    There are problems with the regulator used/chosen for the V2 Omicron heads - It wasn't LDO (enough). The circuit works pretty well with a 2.4 Ohm load, but sags significantly under a 1.5 Ohm load. The difference with 2.4 carts is mostly that the new top has "bulletproof" threads for the...

    Discontinued The Universe Adapter for herbs and concentrates.

    Which is better, or is either usable, with bubble or "full melt"? That is more interesting to me than flowers. NOTE: I've never yet found any vape that does a good job with full melts without being a PITA to clean. The PD does handle SOME bubble well (if it doesn't melt and clog -- learning...

    Discontinued The Universe Adapter for herbs and concentrates.

    G, I'm not asking how it is designed, I'm asking about how to use it. For some of us, cleaning when traveling is VERY important - *I* will travel with a DART, but not with a used Omi cart. Straight forward 1: Can it be cleaned (easily) so that it can safely be "examined" by people who don't...
