I also bought SKU 2249503 in May for $27.41. If you ever considered a Phantus now would be the time. For how much these have been reduced I wouldn't be surprised if they're going to be discontinued soon. Dammit FT, couldn't you have done this a little sooner? WTF? This was part of an order that sat for nearly two weeks before shipping...lol Illegitimi Non Carborundum est Working...

You can get 12000mah (yes, 12ah) of hard plastic cased lipo for 286. 6000mah hardcased rated for 130c (690a although lets say 500 amps for a safety margin) for 143g If there was a mostly aluminium and thus very light (and more conductive than copper) one i'd be all over this at this price. pity :( Edited on 7/9/2016 at 8:09 PM.

Combined with 18350 life an excellent way to gradually quit vaping lol Green Screwdriver for LIFE Working...

johnny_469 Member JoinedOct 2013 Posts 23118 Reviews 288 Kudos27286	I doubt it's actually 300g. Probably the package weight, not the mod. This should be the lightest of them all based on the construction materials. Woah, mama! Working...

It's a single 18350 mod. I wouldn't go below .4-.5oHm on it with pretty much any 18350 myself :-\ Woah, mama! Working...

rangermsr Member JoinedJun 2013 Posts 7958 Reviews 29 Kudos12022	+1 details It may not be the most practical device, but I do like the way it looks :) I figure it will likely sit on the desk as an always ready, and double duty as a paper weight :D I still have aluminum Nemi tubes setup for 18350's. I usually have one riding shotgun in a cargo pocket when I'm working. I could even use this to set on my amp. It's low center of gravity, and weight should keep it put even if I crank up some power chords :D I'll likely set it up on a single coil running at what johnny mentioned. I normally get decent battery life out of 18350's this way :) unrealistic expectations lend to disappointment Working...
