It sounds like its time for a new battery. There's a link in my FAQ. My records show you've had it just over two years now. Since you are a fairly heavy user, I'd say you followed the rules fairly well. To answer your question of doing anything different, kinda hard since I don't know what you...

This comes up from time to time and boils down to the user pressing too hard. Now, this could just be you have a heavy hand or the switch is too hard to press. If you find it hard to push, check the Orings seating around the pearl center are not displaced. Either way, please PM if problem...

So we are back on track! :clap: All needed parts have been received. Now to get busy....er. :science:

PMed.

@MinnBobber, Check your PM. :tup:

Hi guys, I have some bad news but hoping it's a very temporary situation. My parts sources from China have become very slow and in fact, haven't actually received anything for a few weeks. I even have shipments with tracking numbers but couriers have not picked up. Not sure how things will pan...

He never made it past the jeans. :cool:

Just use 2ea LM338 in parallel for a 10 amp limit. (or 3 for 15 or 4 for 20 amp limit.) The balancing is just adding a couple of resistors. Check out the circuit here.

It's so hard to troubleshoot from that video but can see a couple of things you need to improve. First thing is to solder the work coil as those blue connectors cannot be trusted. One just needs to give an intermittent connection and the FETs will instantly blow. Not as important on the power...

Once it's conditioned, it can be charged at any point of discharge. Always good to do complete discharge/charge cycles once in a while. The main rule about these batteries is that they do not like being stored at either full or empty.

The problem with using a portable is the same as with a laptop PC. For home use, it generally gets plugged in and battery maintenance gets forgotten about. Then when you unplug to use on battery, it goes flat quickly. Batteries like being used and not left to be continuously topped up. This...

A slight angle will not affect performance.

Leave in the coil as can get into trouble if you remove. Just use a qtip and ISO to clean the inside. :science:

I have never gotten into 3D printing myself (yet). Interesting thought though. It needs to be heat resistant and no off-gassing when heated as well as odorless. A tough goal for something that needs to be melted to form. Another medium is to stick with the theme and use more SS piping. Here is...

I copied these links from my bookmarks. Some are good but most are dead but at least there is a description. I started getting from Amazon after. The 14mm ss pipe is hit and miss on eBay. Here's an important improvement. Peek center pin Insulator Pipes Project Vaporizer 510 Ego Adapter 510 Heat...

Correct, the p[hysical size is the limiting factor. It's already got the biggest that will fit. :)

People have successfully used cork disks to raise the height or a 12mm disc cut from a high heat silicone oven glove. Cut with 3 small protruding bumps equally spaced around the circumference to friction hold in place but still has easy movement. Just raise by 1-2 mm will make a noticeable...

That unit is only rated for 3 amp output on the 12 volt out. However, that maybe just because of the battery-grade they use. Might still work with some voltage sage if there is no protection before that 10 amp BMS they look like they use. This unit is rated for 6 amp but the price along with the...

This link takes you back to assembling that battery scheme. The BMS lets charge pass but does not control anything as far as regulating charge current. This is why you need the smart 12.6v 3S charger.

I don't think UF4007 is a SCHOTTKY Diode but rather a standard diode. Therefore, I do not think it will oscillate correctly if at all. Also, the wire gauge you are using is too thin. You need a schottky type diode like a 1N5819 or from Ali. Also, you are using the tact switch for the main...
