rbalenbin Posted May 4, 2014 Share Posted May 4, 2014 Been lurking here for a couple months, been vvaping for the same amount of time. Any hoo, current set up is a pro tank 3 mini 1.5 ohms, with a ego c twist 1100 mah (just found out its a knockoff). Smokes great, thick white clouds, superior flavor compared to ce5 clearo with same battery. Thought I'd go out and treat myself to a new battery but my wife brought me home a 1300 mah ego twist (also fake). The flavor isn't there with the new battery though. Same tank same everything. I tried finding a voltage with better flavor but it's just not there. Is this a battery quality issue? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bebop Posted May 4, 2014 Share Posted May 4, 2014 Boy that's hard to say. 'Bout the only thing you could do is check the actual voltage with a meter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joe2003 Posted May 4, 2014 Share Posted May 4, 2014 The amount of air draw the new batt allows could maybe cause that. You might try setting it at ~3.8 and blocking air holes to see if that helps. That and checking the voltage like Bebop said may help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rbalenbin Posted May 4, 2014 Author Share Posted May 4, 2014 Air draw isn't an issue because I also have the bottom valve from the aero tank and even when fully open taste isn't quite up there. It does make it better but no where near as flavorful as with my 1100 mah. Guess I'll have to get a meter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rbalenbin Posted May 4, 2014 Author Share Posted May 4, 2014 (edited) I don't see why but could it be that the max amps on the 1300mah fake is lower? What are thoughts on innokin v3? Edited May 4, 2014 by rbalenbin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bebop Posted May 4, 2014 Share Posted May 4, 2014 Are you saying that the same tank, same coil, switched between batteries gives significant flavor difference? Even with vv adjustment? It just doesn't make sense. I could definitely see how airflow could be a huge factor in flavor. But you're saying it's not an airflow issue at all? I'm stumped......

rbalenbin Posted May 4, 2014 Author Share Posted May 4, 2014 Same mini protank 3, same coil (brand new), same flavor. Just unscrewed from 1100mah ego c twist at 4.0 volts put on 1300mah ego c twist at 3.2v, 3.8v, and 4.0v and flavor taste just isn't the same. Superior taste on the 1100mah. Tried with aerotank valve with air open, little better but not as good. With air closed it was about the same flavor but better hit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bebop Posted May 4, 2014 Share Posted May 4, 2014 Well, I have found that not all batteries are created equal when it comes to connection and airflow so I would guess that is the factor contributing most to your problem as joe2003 has stated.

fishguy1123 Posted May 4, 2014 Share Posted May 4, 2014 If you look at both batts air notches do you see any difference? Could the new one have shallow notches on the 510 connection? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dasfriek Posted May 4, 2014 Share Posted May 4, 2014 I'd say yes, a weak less quality battery can couse these issues. Especially with a low ohm coil such makes them stress even more. A voltage meter will show the batteries output, but what is more important is the batteries droop under load. Say it puts out 3.7v into the meter with no tank attached, my bet is once a tank is attached the batteries output is dropping way down and possibly under 3v. I'd return it if possible and if you can't try a higher ohm coil at 2ohm or 2.5 ohms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rbalenbin Posted May 5, 2014 Author Share Posted May 5, 2014 I have a innokin vv/vw coming in this week. For my backup battery. Hopefully it'll be better than this one. Not possible to return Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mtdobies Posted May 5, 2014 Share Posted May 5, 2014 Innokin vv/vw is a good battery IMO, to start w or a backup, I still use mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rbalenbin Posted May 5, 2014 Author Share Posted May 5, 2014 Thanks. I appreciate everything. I can't wait to vape my grape out of that thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
