Yeah I guess I don't understand what the inside of a T1 looks like. My bad, I didn't know it had a 510 connector inside.

I believe you need either the Evolution interface or the ThermoVape Adapter Interface. I don't think it'll work without one of those pieces. I don't see the Evo interface on the site... e: PB88123 has the link down below.

It sure does. I was never talking about anything but the DART/Rev. You're coming out of left field with talks of T1s and Evolutions. Notice the thread title? If you need proof my question used DART and my initial response to you used Revolution. This post from Tim is pretty informative. I may...

Sure, 6A is enough but hardly necessary for a 2.5A load. I asked if you were thinking of the Evolution since a device capable of 6A is necessary appropriate for that. Thanks for setting me straight I guess, but you haven't told me anything I didn't already know. edited because you can get...

I guess all I have to say is... lol? The ProVari V2 will throw 10W all day. Not sure about the 'tude, you said the Rev LV draws 6A and that's clearly not right...

Er, uh, are you sure you aren't confusing it with the Evolution? Any chance you could grab a resistance reading of a Rev LV sometime?

OF, I was under the impression that the Revolution runs <10W and the LV has been metered at around 1.5 Ohm. I'm using a ProVari V2 (or at least intend to) so this ought to work out if that's the case. Your bit about loaded voltage is part of the reason I'm asking. I'll probably ask ThermoVape...

I just ordered a DART LV. I plan on using it on a variable voltage device and am under the impression that ThermoVape tests their LV products at around 4.1V. I do not want to run it out of spec, but I'm wondering if it's OK to use it regularly at say, 4V instead of 3.7V and further, if I...

I just know from prior experience and frustration that making sure everything is designed to work at the current you plan to use is a good idea. The load on my units was an e-cig atomizer and not a TV product (...yet) but that's really irrelevant to the physics involved. The fact that TV...

Sorry I can't mind my own business but that looks like a Roughstack. Its switch is rated at 3A so you'll probably kill it with the Evo LV. New switch assemblies are only $15 and it's a solid piece of work for the price so if you feel like trying it, go ahead, but be mindful that the switch isn't...

Roughstack has a 3A switch. I'm not sure about the Bolt but they're made by smoktech and I wouldn't expect it to be over-engineered so it probably has a similar limit. And those 1200 mAh 18350s are probably not high-drain batts. Their protection circuit may have been cutting you out.

Doing the math was what set me off in the first place. I don't plan to use it with a 14500 anyway.

I'm a lot more comfortable with a 0.9ohm load on an AW IMR 14500 than my calculated 0.7 ohms. Cool!

Actually up until last week I'd only ever used AW IMRs and started with a 14500. I hate those small battery ecigs and vape like a fiend. I'm lying, my first mod came with CR2s for 6V, those batts died after about two weeks of use. Heh. Quite frankly I think the Evolution looks fucking awesome...

Just the normal ones associated with using rechargeable batts at their limits. I wouldn't worry about the battery venting but it IS a possibility. LiMn is safer than LiCo in this respect but not immune from catastrophic failure. As for the MFLB, it mostly came down to the fact that I don't...

That's the reason I don't own one. And part of the reason I really want an Evolution. Well I didn't say "large" but more voltage drop is expected at higher discharge rates. The battery will probably perform a little better once it warms up, but at 600 mAh you won't have much opportunity...

All I'll say further is that the poor performance reported earlier with the Evo LV on an AW IMR 14500 is consistent with voltage drop associated with running a battery beyond its means. This will significantly reduce the battery's life and may contribute to a catastrophic failure. Batteries...

kewpcer, they told us they're 20W, that's enough to figure out that the Evo is ~1.8 ohm and the Evo LV is at ~0.7 ohms. Just in case anyone sees this, the Evo is a beast and most e-cigs will not work with it. You need relatively big batteries and switches designed for more current than most...

KillFace, it's more appropriate to say the ProVari V2 has a 14.5W limit, unfortunately. It provides 3.5A up to 4.2V and a max of 14.5W at higher voltages. It is, and I share your pain, not enough to drive the Evo.

The AW IMR 14500 has an 8C discharge rating, at 600 mAh that means the battery is only good for 4.8A. The Evo runs at 20W, which would mean 5.4A at 3.7V. The Alpha Ultra isn't enough to drive the Evo with these batteries.
