Dura-C horrible battery life?

[Iken]

I got buned so to speak with the Dura and have been waiting to see posts on the Dura-C. This is the fifth one I have seen with issues again like the Dura-------So thanks for the feedback-----Sun

Sun, it seems that there could be some defects out there Or it can be a user end problem, my friend. (Initial charging procedure.)
I follow the basic rule, 8-12 hours use for 20 min, then recharge 4-8 hours, use, and repeat. Personally, these batteries are very nice. They feel alot stronger than than the originals, and produce about the same amount of vapour. The feeling is there.

The C's last for 5-7 hours easy. Not to mention that I don't even give them a chance to completely drain. As soon as I taste that first weak puff its back on to the charger for an hour.

Don't really know about leaky carts being fixed, unless there's new atoms out there. Either way its not unbearable.
Bottem line, the C's are still worth the shot

I'm using the Dura-C during the weekdays when I'm on the grind. Great upgrade/replacement from the 901, besides the decreased batt life. I still carry the 901 on me for backup. It would be nice not to.

Atomizer runs very hot (not surprised..this thing is powerful..perhaps that's why the batt is drained so fast). Not a problem for me but it might be for some people.

Janty is doing a great job with their products and I hope they perfect the Dura-C soon. I noticed it is shorter in length than a 901. Would it be crazy for me to suggest that Janty offer a longer battery (more capacity) for people like me who don't really care about the length (just as long as it doesnt exceed a pen style)? Also, a USB passthrough would be a great alternative to people like me with batt life issues.

Thinking of getting a KB for the weekend/night chillaxing.

Weird, my batts run ALOT cooler on the C batts than the auto's...

I was actually quite surprised with my Dura-C. I figured manual switches would consume more battery use if compared over a long period of time, but I was wrong. My dura-c battery lasts almost as long as my Pilot 401 battery, and as long as my 402 battery, while lasting more than my 4081 battery from njoy.
