| My first attempt at using a 14670 battery (~1300maH) wasn't too swift, because the battery was really stuffed into the case. These were on sale at Thansgiving at Homer, MUCH better housing for the battery.

THe only problem is the batteries are something like $14 from Lighthound...

| Well, that's what you get for buying batteries that nobody else uses!

| That is pretty cool looking. When I was at HD I was really eyeballing those rechargeable led flashlights but at 25.00 I could just buy an ego LOL

They still had them today. This one was actually from a set of 6 lights for $9, I have some of the dollar ones. The part the switch is mounted in is from one of those.
Oh, and today I was eyeballing the 2 wattage Weller battery soldering iron. But, like you say, at $19...
PS: Nice avatar...

| I just want one that would take protected 14500 batteries. That'd rock. I'd only need to buy 1 kind of battery. /sigh That'd rock.

| With the fluted bowl it certainly would. The part it attaches to could lead to the atomizer connection on the stem. I'd say 2/3 the way up the stem, cut it there so that the tank mod could sit upon it and look freaking amazing. It's doable, but I don't know shit about doing stuff like that, let alone the tools.

A) Why I keep buying all of those cheap flashlights, and
B) Why they keep burning out so quickly. (Li-Ions will pop those little halogens before you get the switch pressed all the way, LOL).
Click-POP! Dang! What's wrong with these darn things?! Guess I need another flashlight... | |

I put a 2 ohm cart on it and it cooks it so much it tastes a bit burnt. I put a 2.5 ohm CE2 on it and...niiiiiiiiiice!

| Nice little mod, the black gives it a little mini light sabre look.
I almost picked up an 18650 flashlight that had a light sabre look to it, but it was $10, a bit over my spending limit for flashlights.

Click-POP! Dang! What's wrong with these darn things?! Guess I need another flashlight... | With a simple 6' USB cable, a 510 connection and a cheap $1 flashlight, a buddy of mine made me a nice little pass-through. I just need an outlet to USB adapter. I'm not burning out the buses on my PC for a PT.

I get that it's 14mm x 67mm, but what's the mAH and native voltage on a 14670?
