1. Welcome to Thailand Vapers, an English language forum for members in Thailand and the rest of Asia to talk about vaping.
    Commonly referred to as e-cigarettes, vaping is really about the use of personal vaporizers (mods) and atomizers (tanks, clearos, RBAs, RDAs, RTAs) filled with e-liquid.
    Are you looking to get started or an old hand at vaping? Everyone is welcome here so sign up today and talk vaping with us!

    Strange, his post disappeared.
    Odd things going on today, whether it's Tapatalk or the website?

    What, you asked advice after you bought them?

    Yeah, don't know enough about batts I suppose. But, looked to be the same batt that sold here by Big. So what's you advice? I didn't see any thing about ratings.

    It depends...in what mod will you be using them? What's the resistance of your coil and at what power setting do you normally vape?

    I wouldn't use the Panasonics based on those parameters...they're just not a high-discharge battery. Get some Samsung 25r's, LG HE2/4's or HG2's (i.e., a battery rated for 20 amp continuous discharge)...then, you'll know you're safe when you push the fire button!

    Thats the same as I did when I upgraded my earlier mods and had these batterys. I have to say the ruinovo has provided good service for over 18 months now.

    Apart from mobile phones, what outlets does this Ruinovo Charger have-- or, is it primarily for mobile devices?? Just looking for devices that take 18650 batteries that we would be 'allowed' to pack in cabin baggage, that isn't Vape related-- just in case things get even worse.

    It has 2 USB outlets...1 amp for Android and 2.1 amp for Apple. It takes some work to open & close...wouldn't recommend it as a stealth battery carrier. You'd be better off carrying a flashlight and spare 18650's in a dedicated battery case.

    What I mean is having devices that justify flying with 8-10 18650 batteries, while the Atomisers would probably be in Check Baggage. Might be a bit of a convoluted plan, since last time I flew, even though they 'stole' my iStick, they didn't bat an eyelid at the 8 x 18650 batteries in the other carry on bag, it's possible they didn't notice them but I think they did, of they could detect an Aspire BDC tank sitting on its own- they should have probably been award of the batteries.
