Looking for a nimbus?

    Uuuuugh... Noooooooo... No more spending... Pleeeeeease!?!

    Thanks superneat! I dunno. I'll be checking out how that list fills out for sure, but I'd prefer to turn the iGO into a clone so I don't keep excreting money.

    An aside: Mech Mods -> more like Meh Mods. I just can't get past the dwindling voltage issue. I need it regulated.
    It vapes fantastic for an hour or two (with an 18650) and then it stops hitting the spot. Really píssing me off. :mad:

    I make my resistance to suit the voltage, I find on most things 1.5 gives me the best vape between 4.2 and 3.5.

    A little high at first but when the battery plateaus at 3.7 I'll have a cracking vape for the longest part of the charge.

    Well I'm down for two nimbus/nimbi?

    So keep an eye on the for sale thread (",)

    I've got 2x1.2ohm coils on the SSTS/DS/Drawtube Smart/MadeUpNameFireChinaTubeTeleLavaSmoke at the moment and it really pains me that the voltage drops the way it does. I've already sanded down the chromed brass contact points after I found the button heating up too much (do this now, anybody who has one! Initial voltage drop due to internal resistance was about .7 and now it's at .4 - the steel connector at the base is a major flaw but the pin that hits the steel connector is chromed brass as is the adjustable pin up top. Amazing the difference a bit of pointless chrome plating makes).
    Maybe that's the flaw with the DS. When the battery's off the charger it's at 4.2v but under load I'm only getting ~3.8v, which drops quick enough to 3.7v/3.3-3.25v under load and once it gets past that I'm left feeling defeated. Definitely not going under .6ohms for the battery's sake. Not sure how to replace the steel yoke in the bottom of the DS, or what with.
    Why the hell are they chrome-plating instead of brass-plating the steel?

    I saw. Nothing makes you want something more than somebody else having it. Terrible the way the mind works, isn't it?
