Thanks man. I did that for him and it is purring now. He never cleans his mechs, might need to get him something regulated if he can't handle the upkeep.Clean the entire mod and make sure the batt is secure. After that it should quit. I clean my m16 all the time and never drain my batteries below 3.7v before I swap them out. So I never seen mine do that.
regulated mods need upkeep too. albeit less, but you still need to clean your 510 & contacts in a regulated removable 18650 mod. further, it might be harder to clean a regulated mod than a mech because with a mech you can usually take them down to bits much more effectively than a regulated one. i dont have much experience with permanent battery regulated mods- that may be a great option for your pops.Thanks man.

Very true. My dad had issues charging his egos and when I investigated, I was first shocked at how filthy the 510 was and then shocked that he didn't notice it. I got him the mech because he wanted something cheap and reliable that could hit hard with a good battery life. He's very mechanically inclined and treats many things in his life (tools, vehicles, etc) with a lot of care. What it comes down to is he doesn't want to make a real effort to quit smoking, so he is either consciously or subconsciously refusing to put forth the required effort towards vaping. If everything works perfectly once I set it up for him, he loves it, but the second something goes wrong, he's back to 2 packs a day. Maybe regulated battery in is the way to go with him. At least he won't hurt himself (or anyone else) with it.regulated mods need upkeep too. albeit less, but you still need to clean your 510 & contacts in a regulated removable 18650 mod. further, it might be harder to clean a regulated mod than a mech because with a mech you can usually take them down to bits much more effectively than a regulated one. i dont have much experience with permanent battery regulated mods- that may be a great option for your pops.
