Wow, that did make it quick. A postal wonder. So guys, the list for batch 3 Portsides is now full and the enclosure supplier has being restocking for over a month now. This means I cannot commit to anymore PSs currently but will post if things change. Will also be looking for a replacement...

The mouthpiece will come apart. It's a standard 510 tip and I added the shrink wrap to aid pulling out of the joint. Just be careful as glass will be glass. ISO or even soapy water and a Qtip will suffice. :science:

Did you try changing the TCR with extreme changes? Like 50 or so. Really sounds like the Mod thinks it's not TC material and assumes it's Kanthal. Keep in mind that lowering the TCR will cause you to go higher in temperature values to achieve vapor. You are trying to go low enough to stop the...

It's possible as never had anyone give feedback for that mod. You could try and play with the TCR value. You're right that the firmware can do this, as it's limits or tolerances are all set there.

@KeroZen, the collar is too wide to go through the hole. Was snipping it off and then started to just install flipped over so lip is towards the small washer. @luke00978 , only move a tid at a time, centering as best you can. You will likely overshoot a couple times and have mod say it's...

Your very welcome and glad it was so quick. Mods will go into watt mode when the coil resistance doesn't behave or change as expected. Have you tried getting another initial ohms measurement? Should be around .5-.6 ohms. Take out the battery also forces the settings back instead of...

They do feel like they are floating or spongy. This is normal as there is two layers of double sided tape and has some give. Unless it's pealed away, should be fine. Good work, Very well done!! Now take that wire off the ground pad and put it on the trigger. BTW, bet the small switch is now...

The switch goes between the + voltage and trigger input. Leave the ground beside the trigger alone. You can see how it's wired in this picture. :science:

The power supply is indeed a good question. Many units just don't work even if rated to 6 amps. I believe it has to do with the way any one model is designed to handle initial surge. The delay before going into auto shut off mainly. I have gotten 3 different, 6 amp units that just go into over...

Cool you got a little test drive. Your charger is in the mail, you should get hopefully by next weekend. The rear switch only takes the actual coil off line. The charger stays charging regardless. Once it's done charging and light turns green the charging stops. It will start again at 11.x...

I'll get another charger out to you right away. If you have an external charger or device which takes the 18650s, you can charge up externally. You'll likely get the replacement charger by the time you need to charge again. :) It appears the charger likely blew before much got into the...

Glad shipping was so quick. Let's try a couple things. First off., leave the rear power switch in the "on" position all the time as is only needed as a kill switch. 1/With the charger plugged into the wall but not the PS, is the light still green? This will tell us if charger died as still...

Here you go, Glass Tube.

Into the bottom. Once head comes off, it will push through. Careful not to use too wide of bit, as don't want to shave the inner lip off. Following that, I use a vise to get the new nylon insulator into the hole. It's very tight and sometimes some nylon will shave off the side. Which hasn't...

Quickest and easiest way to get the original pin out is a drill press or drill with vise. Don't need to drill right though as it will come out once the head is drilled off. Once you do a couple, you'll see. BTW, Good stuff!

No problem. I went directly to the theory end of it. It would be the one with the lowest internal resistance which is a real number but we have to go with the provided, shaky spec of continuous current rating. Without testing, it should be the one with highest output rating. As for a...

I get many charge cycles out of the VCT4, lower capacity at 1500 mAh, but more cycles...? The VCT5A looks very similar but a little higher rating. But does that translate to less cycles as well? Not sure but have tried many cells and keep going back to the VCT4s. Also, best price wise too. But...

IMO, either of those will work fine, I have to correct one thing though, the AWTs are actually rated for 20 amp not 40 amp as that is a manufacturer pulse test. No matter, as still enough current. 1/The running temperature of cells is a result of the cells "internal resistance". This spec is...

Yes it does, specially if your putting something non-inductive in the hole, just to turn it on. I found that if you use the VC to activate, this lid heating is much less. The VC takes most of the eddie field energy. And yes, lol, don't put your finger there. :p

It was nylon on the bottom. Took some pretty extreme heat to travel down the bolt. The nylon was just warm enough for the bolt to move for my Jerry rigged connection to touch ground. Don't think that should be a concern as would never drive that far in real life. IMO, you can still use the...
