....I have to wait 8 hours for it to charge

It looks so cool and I really think I'll like this better way of 'smoking'! Now I'm going to be looking into those PCC's cus I want to have a fully charged ecig all the time! Thanks to the folks at awesomevapor!

Patience ... patience (lol)

Definitely get a PCC without delay. The 510's don't hold a charge for long (maybe an hour and a half for me), so you'll need to trade them out frequently. The PCC is really slick!

You don't need to wait 8 hours. When the led turns green you are good to go. Your first charge may not last as long as advertized, but after the second charge you should be OK.

Got my 510 today, my first e-cig, and the battery has lasted me all afternoon so far, about 6 hours. I was a 2 pack a day analog smoker so I've been pleasantly surprised so far by how long the battery charge has lasted.

"Lithium-ion is a very clean system and does not need priming as nickel-based batteries do. The 1st charge is no different to the 5th or the 50th charge. Stickers instructing to charge the battery for 8 hours or more for the first time may be a leftover from the nickel battery days."
