MarcTenn Posted September 1, 2013 Share Posted September 1, 2013 Just got this kit and wanted to know any tricks or tips to getting more Vapor out of it. I'm using the 18650 battery w/ kick chip and X8 clearomizer/atomizer. I don't get as much Vapor as my Ego Twist / Kanger T3 combo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rixter Posted September 1, 2013 Share Posted September 1, 2013 (edited) What power is your Kick set at? Just remember that the mod is just a battery holder...the vapor produced is going to be directly dependent on the power setting on your Kick. I have Two KTS+ mech mods and with a Sigelei Kick in them (set to 9 watts), they are fog machines.

MarcTenn Posted September 1, 2013 Author Share Posted September 1, 2013 It came with the Kamry Kick Chip. I don't see any way to "set" it. The chip just says Kamry and nothing else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeffb Posted September 1, 2013 Share Posted September 1, 2013 Looks like the Kamry chip only provides protection and doesnt do what the original Kick does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rixter Posted September 1, 2013 Share Posted September 1, 2013 (edited) Looks like the Kamry chip only provides protection and doesnt do what the original Kick does. If that's the case, then the culprit is likely the X8's resistance level. Since we apparently aren't able to adjust your mod's power level with the equipment you have, we'll have to reduce your tank's resistance, which will increase the power to your coil. Gimme a few minutes to do a little research and I'll get back with you. Edited September 1, 2013 by Rixter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rixter Posted September 1, 2013 Share Posted September 1, 2013 (edited) Okay. The Kamry Kick Chip is just a protection chip...no power adjustment. Nice research, jeffb. The X8 is a carto tank that uses standard length (35mm) tank cartos...not XL (45mm). You can use the XLs, but they'll stick out of the top of your tank a pretty good bit. If you want to up your vapor production, you'll need to get some low resistance (2Ω) tank cartos for it. I use Boge LR tank cartos in my carto tanks...the best price I've found for what you need to get (Boge 510 LR Stainless Laser Slotted) is here. Your X8 probably came with a 2.5Ω carto, which will put around 5½ watts on your carto's coil at 3.7v. A 2Ω carto will give you close to 7 watts. Just remember this...without a variable power chip (like the Sigelei Kick), your voltage will drop from 4.2v (freshly charged battery) to 3.5v (time to recharge) with use, which in turn will cause your tank's power to decrease as well. If you do get a Kick, you'll more than likely need to get an 18350, 18490, or 18500 IMR battery, because I don't think an 18650 plus a Kick will fit in your mod.

MarcTenn Posted September 1, 2013 Author Share Posted September 1, 2013 That's exactly the help I was looking for! Y'all are great, thank you so much! Rixter 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can only vouch for the IMR 18350s working with a Kick in the KTS. That's the only configuration I've personally tried since I don't have any 18490s or 18500s.
