no 400mah is the smallest they will go

Oh noooooooo.

OK, question.

As it is with the 400s, those at 3-1/8" plus a Stallion and a regular dp at about 2-7/8", I end up with a total length of right at 6 inches.

Would it be possible to shorten the new Ravens 1/2 inch, at the top end, and use a stubby(the short ones) dp to arrive at about 5 inches total length? I can use a shorter tank to accomodate the shorter Raven.

If I understand the Ravens there is no functional guts to the thing at the top end of them, the Ravens I mean.

I need the shorter length to be more shirt pocket friendly and not tend to fall out so much.

I was just chatting with zippersnapper about this issue ( size ) earlier... If you don't like the technical aspects, you may want to skip the rest of this post... lol


Variable voltage/wattage devices require a lot of amperage output in order to work. This is why they use the high drain LiMn batteries instead of just the ordinary Li-on.

A high drain LiMn like we are using here are capable of providing up to 10 times their rated MAH rating... normally this is refered to as it's "C" rating.... in this case/example a LiMn provides 10c of current. Examples would be a 300mah battery can provide up to 3 amps, a 400mah can provide up to 4a etc.... While these batteries are well capable of providing current up to their rating, constantly pulling that amount of current can shorten their lifespan. To help avoiding a shortened lifespan on your bats... you try to use one that can provide more current than you may end up using so you are not working the battery too hard.

Now you should know what the maximum could load that COULD be used ( not that they will ). These provide up to 4.8v and commonly go down to 1.5 ohm ( lower is available but not as common ). The load that running a 1.5 ohm carto/atty at 4.8v is 3.2 amps ( and over 15 watts which is very hot btw ) ... This amount of load would be more than just a 300mah 10C battery can provide and a 350mah battery wouldn't have much more "overhead"... So that is part of why a 400mah battery is around the smallest you want for VV use.

While the 400 mah version isn't going to be an all day PV.... it should be perfect for those short trips out providing a few hours of vaping give or take depending on use.

Norman, Ok
the main use for me is the size for when im out and about, carrying 2 of these for me does the trick , i like the bigger brothers and they serve their purpose at home or when im somewhere were size isnt the issue but these 400 mah's are just right for out on the town usage,

That is exactly my own use for the Smoktek mini eGo's that I currently use in that spot... The addition of VV will allow me to tune the vape now, which has been missing in this size range of a PV until now... Hopefully they will eventually do these using VW instead at some point in the near future.

I don't see why not dodari. Bad said there was no center tube again in the new versions so as I assume you could cut the cart and the tube the same amount and you would be good to go. Not a bad idea. I'll probably do the same with a couple when they come in. The only effect I can see would be a slightly warmer vape. The original tanks are just shy of 1 inch on the inside of the caps so you would also be halving your capacity.

Yep, that's what I recall Bad said. Soooooo, I guess I'll wait and see. If you get there afore I do, let me know what you did. The capacity of the stock tank would definitely take a serious hit. Therefore I would consider using a mini subsurface vessel(like a sub-something or other) with an increased internal diameter as a somewhat increase in capacity. Besides it would have a filler screw in the side of the tank. I can carry a syringe or 2 or 3 being a diabetic, no problem. Besides, at 72, I'm just plain lazy. I just want to have something that hides fairly well in my shirt pocket that has a high PG juice in the tank(low short lived vapor) to have in court and want a quick rip and I'm particularly p*ssed at the ... of a judge behind the bench. Contempt of court? I wouldn't dare say.

Anyway these short drip tips: Home :: GV Atomizers & Accessories :: Drip Tips 510 :: GotVapes Aluminum Pawn 510 Drip Tip - BLACK

Thanks.

P.S.: Dang it, I can't figger out how to make the above link for the drip tips to work. RATS! Sorry.

If they are the new colored ones that went up a couple days ago they are the standard drip tip size. one inch overall with 3/4" out of the cart. I got the green/gold one.

yes standard, 3/4 inch out of your carto/atty...

OK, the drip tips referenced are 1/4" shorter, mine are presently 1" out of the carto. If, then, I can get away with shortening the new Ravens by 1/2", that would put me at about 5-1/4 inches tall, which would be just fine. Thanks for the answers.

Thing is it all swings on what can be done to the Ravens without wrecking them. I(we?) will just have to wait and see.

Maybe Bad do a vid with a hack saw and a grinder to remove the burrs and demonstrate? That oughta scare hell outta everybody.:p

you can cut them down and i dont see why not, i do recommend to use a filler for them as once you get juice inside the main chamber you will cause it to leak.

Hmmmm. OK, Bad, you've got the experience with these Ravens. I am believing that you indeed had the experience of getting juice into the main chamber and having leaking. Was it then down past the coil and wick and out the bottom or what did happen? Was it experienced as a result of filling? Trying to learn how this would happen. Maybe shortening them a bit is not such a good idea afterall?

Awesome vapor clouds in your vid. BTW.

Thanks

a result of filling, thats why using a juice filler or when the new tank with easy fill arrives to use that, it just causes pressure,so of you get juice in the main chanber the juice sits on top and pours through slowly and causes the juice coming form the tank to syphon along

Ah, OK. New tank with "easy fill"? Sounds like a big help. Coming soon hopefully.
