So just for kicks, I have a feeling it has to do with the Joye Tech chargers. I say that because I opened a couple of new ones from the VT store and plugged in the eVods, they charged through without a hitch. At least in my case, it seems to only be an issue on my generic chargers :/

You know, mine do this sometimes too. I have 5 chargers here with Spinners and eVod batteries and the eVod batteries will sometimes blink. I never really thought much of it until you mentioned it. They all seem to charge and work correctly.

and if you ever do run into issues with our store don't hesitate to open a support ticket and one of us will always be happy to assist Sorry to hear about Ms T's !

Sorry to hear that your device didn't work great! Next time you order shoot me a PM and we'll see if we can't hook you up with some swag in the store

Hi Folks, The new section of our site which will contain the new location for our Online Store, Blog System and a number of other features is almost ready to go. We're looking for a few members who are willing to click around and point out any issues that we may have missed. We're also happy to take some feedback. If interested please reply here if you're willing to dedicate a little time back to Vapor Talk. I will pick users at random. Bug Testers will be the first to use the front end of the site. VIP members have priority. Thanks Folks!

This is a 3rd party App (Tapatalk) so we're limited on what we're able to do. If you open a support ticket I'll see if we can't figure something out.

I'm going to sticky this topic with a title change because as has already been said, battery safety is a serious issue. One I think some of the newcomers don't take seriously enough. Great video.

Hi Folks, I've been popping in and out of some of the sub forums as we look to expand our product line in the Vapor Talk store. I'd like to get some feedback on the most popular used batteries. What is your go to battery? (Brand, Model Number) I appreciate the feedback!

There seems to still be a little confusion so I've updated the primary post for this topic. It explains in greatly details your temporary restrictions. -

Typo 3 posts is fine. Once you hit that 4th post (which is when the system moves you) you'll be switched over to the regular group (Quote my post and say thanks! and that'll push you over) -
You're most welcome, glad to see a happy customer

Does anyone occasionally have an analog?
Christopher replied to robv1978's topic in General Vaping Discussion
I haven't smoked a cigarette in years now, but when I first started vaping, occasionally, I would have a cigarette. I think I've been smoke free now, I dunno, 4 + years? -
There are a number of suppliers (located on the front page of the forum) that offer great e liquid. Our own store has 3 different lines currently (with another one being added soon) https://www.vaportalkstore.com/PG-and-VG-based-e-Liquid-s/1845.htm This answer is biased, but I figure I'd get our shout out in too

Thoughts on vaping around children?
Christopher replied to LOSTSOUL VAPORZ's topic in General Vaping Discussion
I vape around my kids but generally not in an environment that's closed off. I tell them it's medicine. The reason for this isn't because I want to lie to them but because my daughter is 4 and my son is 2 while smart, they're both too young to understand what Nicotine is and why as adults we use it. (I enjoy the vice!) I do this to ensure if they come across my e cigarette when I'm not around, they don't try it themselves for their own safety. (They'd probably try to take a huge whiff without pushing the button and end up with a mouth full of e liquid. Not good) They both know that medicine is a good thing but can be harmful if too much is taken. "It gives you "boo boo's" if you take to much!" They understand this concept well enough. They've asked to look at my e cigarettes and I've shown them and let them hold it. (After that they've shown little interest) When they're older I'll explain to them what a vice is and why as adults we sometimes use them. When you've had a bad day don't you want to play a video game or have a juice? Mom and Dad vape. It's a way to relax after a long day. No point in BS'ing them about it. They'll probably drink wine, beer what have you when they're older. Some might not agree with this but you can't bubble them forever. My supplies are put into a lock box (One of these actually) just to stay on the safe side and my e cigarette is almost never out of my site anyway. As to whether or not I vape around them in the car, office etc the answer is no. I generally try not to vape or doing anything around them that could be potentially harmful that they don't have a choice in. While I think most of us know e cigarettes are safer than cigarettes (who could really argue that) we don't really know if they're "safe" (which is relative anyway) So if I'm in the car, I generally hold off on vaping. My son, like Dad has asthma so it's not something he really needs to be breathing in. No matter what environmental toxins he might be taking in as it is. I'm not going to lie and say I never have but I'd say 90% of the time I hold off until we're out of the car. I can generally wait until we get to our destination. At home I generally vape in the office with the window open, if they come into say hi, I generally put my e cigarette down and there's plenty of fresh air coming into the office. I can hold off long enough to chit chat with my kids without having to constantly vape. This is just my personal preference -

What you're actually talking about are product codes. Let me copy and paste this from CreigHB (I've quoted this before) It's 4am and easier than typing it all out IMR is a product code. "I" stands for Lithium-Ion, "M" stands for the Manganese based chemistry, and "R" stands for rechargeable. ICR is again a product code. Same as before except "C" stands for the Cobalt based chemistry. Only the round cells commonly use these designators. There are flat cells or prismatic cells that use a Li-Ion chemsitry, but it's usually polymer based (plastic). I've never even seen the code designator for that. Everybody just calls them LiPo cells. High drain means that the cell can handle high output currents. ICR cells are usually limited to 2 times the charge capacity in output drain. So, for example, a 750mAh 14500 ICR cell would be limited to two times 750mA or 1.5A. This is why this type of cell must be protected. It has the lowest drain capability and the highest volatility or flammability in composition. IMR cells typically have an 8C drain limit which is 8 times the charge capacity. A IMR 14500 with 600mAh can handle 4.8A. This chemistry is less volatile than the Cobalt chemistry and has much higher drain limits so they are typically not protected internally. Though, they should have some kind of external protection because they can burn too, just not as easily. LiPo and prsimatic cells can range in drain limit anywhere form 1/2C to 60C. They are slightly less volatile than ICR and a little more than IMR. They are typically not protected internally and should have external protection electronics. These are the type of cells you find in digital cameras and cell phones. Generally speaking, you only use an IMR cell when the device specifically calls for one. IMR cells are required for boosters (single cell VV or VW) because boosters require higher drain. With a booster, you're going from lower voltage to higher voltage. That means you're going from higher current to lower current. IMR cells may also be required for unregulated mods if the cell is small. For example, you are limited to 1.5A with an ICR 14500. If you want to use an LR atty with a cell that size, you need an IMR cell. In the end, the size of your cell boils down to what you want in run time versus size. That's always the big trade-off. If you want a smaller device with a smaller cell, you'll have less run time. If you want more run time, you'll have to tolerate a larger device with a larger cell. Size numbers are based on a metric scale. An 18650 is 18mm x 65.0mm. A 14500 is 14mm x 50.0 mm. A 14500 happens to be the same size as an AA battery.

Bump Everytime You Buy Something New
Christopher replied to blucavvy's topic in General Vaping Discussion
What the hell, I'll join in on the fun This week I upgraded to the Aerotank Mini. Didn't like it at first, figured it out finally, love it (Though it burns through juice likes nobody's business) -

You can also simply visit the forum from you forum (Android or iPHone) and the mobile version will auto load. I will however address the tapatalk issue shortly
