|  charging the battery
just got the 901 today, having fun with it...anyway. cash pre-charges for us (thanks steve),so i started using immediately, but i put the second battery on charge to "top it off". so heres the question.... should i be afraid of overcharging? can i charge overnight in general(like 8 hours)? think im gonna go up and take the other off charge to be safe...lol.

Unless the charger is defective & is smoking or on fire within a few hours I see no problem. I frequently leave multiple chargers working overnight without any problem.

same here, no problems with long charges. The batteries and/or chargers have a cut-off that drops the charge rate to almost nothing once the battery is full Quote:

I'm terrible for putting things on to charge (not just e-cig batts) and forgetting about them.  I frequently have my e-cig batteries charging for a lot longer than the required 3-4 hours (usually left on over night) and it doesn't seem to bother them. Ironically though, I seem to count down the minutes until my initial charge has reached the 8 hour minimum charge required for me to try out a new style/ or new LED colour.

another batt question then...if i understand correctly...puresmoker charges both? included batteries(or just the attached one?), but does not pre charge batteries that are purchased seperately? mostly wondering if he's doing it to test them i guess...

Just got mine and there's a note from Steve that says he no longer fully charges them and you should charge for 10 to 12 hours.

I got my first 901 from Steve last Monday (12/15) and both batteries were fully charged and ready to go. I know in the past (from reading the board) that sometimes he gets too busy to fully charge them, but he'll include a note if they aren't charged. I have a rotating routine set up now for batteries; one battery usually dies around 11:00 AM, and I let it charge until I leave work at 4:00. The second battery usually dies around 7:00 PM, and I let it charge overnight... |
