    I currently have the white and black vtbox 200 and I am just subscribing to this post so I can figure out a good battery to replace my unbalanced battery that I actually got from vapecige

    I replaced mine with a Turnigy 1300 but ended up that the Lion Power battery was OK, just unbalanced.
    Take a look at this post: https://forum.evolvapor.com/topic/67772-topic/?do=findComment&comment=910038
  2. I thought I'd do mine here at work but don't have a small enough Philips screw driver. I did look at the tutorial and suggest putting tape across the up and down buttons and face plate prior to removing the face plate to hold them in place.
    Here is the link to the FB page: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1057199624324956/

    EDIT:
    I do have a precision straight edge screw driver set here at work so I used it with no problem but I did need some assistance getting the screws started back in, that was accomplished using the same round tooth pick that I used to fold the screen back as a screw starter. Done, easy job.

  3. The first thing I'd be looking at are those rings around the positive connector for the batteries. If the wrapper is to thick or the positive button on the battery doesn't protrude as is should no contact will be made. This is how they did the reverse battery protection (with the rings). The rings should be left the way they are and the battery replaced or corrected (if that's the cause)
    If just the two inside batteries make connection the board is still able to power on but not vape...BTW

  4. From their web site:

    "Dear WISMEC Customers:


    Breaking news!
    Because we are now limited by the capacity and supply chain of our materials (screens), we cannot possibly meet the huge and evergrowing demand for the Reuleaux DNA200. In an attempt to satisfy this enormous demand, Wismec will be launching the Reuleaux RX200.

    The RX200, a new version of the Reuleaux series, designed by JayBo, still retains its unique feature of three removable 18650 batteries and reverse polarity protection. However, the new and powerful chip utilizes on board reverse polarity and has maximum output of 200 temperature controlled watts. These temperature functions include Titanium, Nickel and Stainless Steel modes. The new and proprietary chip has upgradable firmware and comes in new color options and can be easily distinguished. 

    Click:http://www.wismec.com/product/reuleaux-rx200/ to find more details about the Wismec RX200.
    Thank you for your time.

  5. Prior to seeing the pictures of the wires I ordered 4 Samsung 25r's, they came in a couple of days ago. When I got them charged up I installed them in my Wismec and compared the voltage drop @ 100 watts to the Mxjo 3000's that I had previously tested, the result was the Samsung's fared just slightly better (just). I decided to stay with the Mxjo's thinking maybe they really are 3000 mah. My 18 gauge silicone wire arrives today, still on the fence as to whether or not to use it, I doubt if it will be worth the effort but may do it anyway.

  6. The ground strap coming off the battery cradle is doing it's job well (also is the 510 ground), I measured voltage between battery #1 negative and the base of atty while firing @ 28 watts and got 0.02 volts. It's good that they didn't make it out of aluminum from "the" hat.

    Curiosity of @Robby the ground tag on the battery cradle

    you can see his original post here http://allaboute-cigarettes.proboards.com/thread/59815/wismec-reuleaux-dna200-strip


    That spot where the long red wire makes the bend, is that melted plastic from the wire getting hot?
    My wire will be here in a couple of days.

    hey @dwcraig1 does it look like theres enough room to just piggy back wires onto the existing ones to beef up the connection? and still be able to be put back together?

    I suppose but it would be just as easy or easier to replace them.
    I think there's little to be gained by changing them though, seems the 18650's might be more of where the voltage drop comes from.
  9. I was looking for where the battery sled grounded, not the board.
    The screw under the foam plug isn't tamper proof, the foam may be a means of determining if it was tampered with though. I think it may be where the sled grounds. It screws into the hole next to negative output pad
