Good stuff, nice multimeter.....no smoke? :D I was being generous. I previously measured .4 -.5 ohms for load so one can calculate from there. amps = volts/ohms watts = volts X amps With your valued measurement we have 9.7 = 3/ohms or ohms = 3/9.7 = .31 ohms. (3X9.7= 29.1 watts) This is good to...

My AW 3100's kick out almost immediately. Must have a 6 amp kicker circuit. Those must have a 10 amp protection (or thermo protection as should not take time to come back on). My guestimates puts the FV at around the 9 amp mark. Pipes

This is a reasonable quality solution to a portable power handle with a latching switch. Reasonably cheap to make and is very nice quality. I purchased mine through ebay here. for $10.25 It is a "TrustFire TR-801 Cree Q5 5-Mode 300-Lumen waterproof LED Flashlight torch Lamp" for when the link...

What's this cupping and squeezing all about. LMAO. For safety sake, would it not be best to have to squeeze and cup at the same time. Wouldn't want it to go off in your pocket. Specially without the condom. Pipes

Just guessing but suspect the hose from a dead bbq type lighter would work. Nice and long so can even screw up a couple times....hehe Or look for old dead lighters, might get lucky. Pipes

Yes it does. A quick tug and the device will detach. The 90 degree elbows stays cool enough to grab and pull to remove even while fired. I wouldn't hold on for any length of time but long enough to get it off and switch hands to hold the top by the mouth piece. With the TET handle the way it...

Thanks 2click. It's been a journey into the unknown for sure. Good for those who like to tinker but would not recommend if one is not comfortable with rebuilding the rebuildable if need be. Remember there is no warranty with this project but really nothing to fail that can't be fixed. I'm...

Your welcome, glad to be of service. See above as I edited and you may have missed it. Pipes

The hose I would likely attempt repair/replace. The tank, nope, but really doubt if that's the trouble though. EDIT: The main switch is between the tank and hose so you should already have a good idea which it is. If will not hold gas then the tank is likely cracked. Not worth even opening if...

It did work but removed I guess.

Welcome to the fun Epic. I've been inside that unit more than once. For some inside pics and a couple other mods check it out Iolite vaporiser It's not too hard to take apart but need to be careful. I have heard of the gas hose getting cracked and it is protected by running inside a spring for...

Welcome to the fun Paperc, think you will enjoy this forum. If you are happy and IO is working good, than why change your mind? The IO is a great proven portable. I have one but confess I haven't used is a while as have moved onto the battery powered units. The units which are just turn on and...

Thanks Flash, love the news. I should have added that stripping down is not a normal thing to do, but I'm not a normal guy. Have a terrible habit of wanting to know what makes things tic. I can see once apart that the exposed ss heating element is very vulnerable without the top ceramic locking...

Yeah, I was checking out what unscrewed and found it comes off quite easy. The ceramic top just pulls straight out and has 2 guide pins so easy to put back. Never touched the heater screen at all while open. Just measured the resistance along the side rails. Would make it easy to clean the...

OK, have had my first night last night to give a small test drive. Doing the instructions gets a small hit but really not what I was hoping. Now I know I'm in training and have never experienced the MFLB so hard to judge what I should expect. After a few small puffs I tried a bit more. Started...

Sooo.... I made a 510-RCA adapter with an LED indicator. This could just as easy be a 3/8" thread as in OF's unit. I used a red LED (typical specs I'm assuming) and a 180 ohm series resistor. Turns on at 2.2 volts and reaches good brightness well before 3 volt. Once the soldering is...

Thanks guys, feel better now. Will keep an eye on it. BTW, the VaporGenie stem does work well. Just had to shorten it up a bit and add the shrink tubing. Found 1 layer fits loose and 2 layers fits really tight. A little short but can stand on either end. Pipes

OK, now you have me a little worried. Now when I received I immediately put the batteries on the charger. Tic Toc Tic couldn't wait for the Toc. I figured giving an IMR a shot. Loaded up about 1/4 bowl and pulled the trigger and sipped for vapor which happened in 3 seconds. Got into a pulsing...

Got it today and going trough the learning curve. Getting there, First impressions are looking good. Couple questions, Is it normal for the glass top to rattle? I tightened the top as much as I can. Am I missing a washer or something? Is it normal for the screen to get black spots as the...

Mine is finally showing "out for delivery". Stayed home today to finish some bathroom renos. Yep, that's my story, or excuse? Can't wait, and testing with 3.7 is definitely on my list. After I get my spars into the 3.2 volt. My buddy received his Friday and is enjoying it immensely. He said it...
