Yes, the LG D1 is indeed a nice cell, but... You may not have noticed that the voltage of the D1 is 4.35V, not 3.7V. The chemistry of the D1 cell is different. It does have great capacity, but it also has quite a bit of internal resistance. Note how much and how fast the voltage drops when the...

I forgot about my 6v DART; so I have 5 DART cores, all full wrap (No windowed Revos). My 6V DART has four holes too...

So, like OF, I'm waiting to hear from those of you that are having trouble with combusting in a Cera LL core. Have you tried hand crumbling your load instead of grinding it, and if so, did that help to prevent combusting? (Just wanted to ask since a bunch of us patted themselves on the back...

You're missing one clause in your question: "for our particular usage". There is no one battery that is the best for all usages. You have to look at what the use characteristics are. In this case, we have a gizmo (the Cera) that wants to draw between 4 and 5 Amps. It works best when a fresh...

Isn't that interesting. I just checked the four DART cores I have handy, and three of them have four air holes (at 90°) while one of them only has two (at 180°). The one with two holes is a virgin (still has white ceramic) that I got from TET as part of one of the very last Ultra kits they found...

They're actually not bad cells. Not as good as either of the Panasonic's we've been throwing around here, but not terrible. They're rated at 2C discharge (5.2 Amps), which is enough for the Cera. But they will not heat up a Cera core any faster (in fact, slightly slower), and they won't last any...

Though slightly off topic, I thought some of you might find this $10 gizmo as great an idea as I do. If you have a bunch of 18650 batteries sitting around because you jumped on the "CH" sales that have been posted here (as I did), how about a little plastic case that holds four of them, and...

Now this is the best method I've seen so far for pre-heating your Cera without wasting precious battery life...

How can that picture and those words go in the same message?:o

Umm, thanks. I should probably mention that I didn't make either of the nice wood mods, I bought them. Guy named "Matador" made them, and they're called MCM's for "Man Cave Mods". He just retired from making them, but don't tell your wife or she'll give you the finger again.

2x4 indeed. I really haven't used the big boy out and about, but I could. Half the time all I need is "smell stealth", and I could be using a monster bubbler for all anyone would know (Concentrates are your friend). The other half the time I need "visual stealth" as well, in which case I usually...

As long as the topic has gravitated towards MODs and External Power, I thought I'd show a couple of pictures of what I've been up to getting the most from my TET stuff. TET makes the tastiest (and healthiest) vaporizer cores, bar none. Whether I'm vaping botanicals with my T1 or Evo, and...

For right now, while you can still get them, the CGR18650CH is a better choice for the Cera line than the NCR18650PD. Even if it weren't available for 1/4 the price. It has lower internal resistance (which means it doesn't get as hot in use), it uses a more stable and safer chemical composition...

So what (output) voltage have you found to your liking? Are you using different voltages when switching from the LL core to the EO core? I've been having a lot of fun playing with different voltages. Instead of using a specific strength and length of inhale to dictate the quantity and quality of...

Not sure what link OF posted, but the original link I posted is still active. Try this link. They still have 20 sets of four left, though it looks like the free "Prime" shipping is no longer being offered.

In the future, to avoid double posting, you can use the "edit" button in your first message, and add what you said in your second message to your original post.

mod note: This thread is the result of topic drift in the TetraLabs California: GoldPen thread, so it doesn't get immediately to the subject. Do not be alarmed. Remain calm at your screen and all will become clear. I haven't noticed any difference in PG over the past year. And I've also tried...

Can you (throw my batteries on the charger right after using them)? Yes. Is it good to do it? No. You should let them rest for a bit, regardless of their temperature. You've just been whacking them by drawing 4 amps until they're depleted. That's OK, they're designed to take it, but they...

With regard to Lithium cells: Your batteries hold their charge for a very long time (months) without losing a significant amount, so you should charge them whenever you have the time, whether they're partially discharged or mostly discharged. You should avoid discharging them completely unless...

This is a great tip!
