Default How long is your pilot battery lasting you?

Just curious how long your long pilot battery lasts you before it needs to be charged? Mine went from 7:30 till around lunch time so 4 1/2 hours. From what I hear it should last longer than that? Thats about what my 901 gives me. I did the initial charge by the book and also charge the long battery over night every night. The short battery I charge from 3:30pm till around 11pm then the long goes on the charger till around 7:30 the next morning.

They are getting plenty of charge time but I dont seem to get the long battery life people talk about?

I have both the long and short Pilot battery. I don't get a very long charge at all. The long only lasts about 3 hours and the short about 2 hours.

Since I got my Evo, it's the only battery I use. The Evo lasts twice as long, if not longer.

which battery? the 402 battery is significantly less time.

i don't use mine constantly though, like, i dont' wake up at 8am and use it steadily til it dies.

my habits are rather...sparse. i charge my EVO battery and a Pilot battery, and i swap back and forth between them (atomizer and battery) during the evenings, and for me, i get about 2 or 3 nights worth of use out of each of them. so if i were to average it, i'd say they last what is suggested, or near the 7-8 hour mark.

Flitz I am talking about the M401 which is the longer battery I think.

Momof3 that is about what I am getting with heavy use. I guess I expected it to last longer than my DSE901 does. It may last a half hour longer but thats about it.

May only last about as long as DSE901, but for the size of it and considering it's basically good output to the last draw instead of fading, that's pretty good IMO.

Don't know how long the battery would last with fairly light usage. I could see someone getting through the day with just 2 longs with light use.

Me, well I'm just a slave to the charger at the moment.

i've had a few times where it only lasted a few hours, but i started today at 4:30 am, and its now after 4 pm and it still has not died. i was a pack a day smoker, and though i was at work and didnt vape a lot, its twice as long as i would get out of my dse901(rn4075-no idea how would compare to a "true"901).
