    Default In search of long lasting batteries

    I have 2 batteries for my njoy 4072. One is always charging while I'm vaping on the other. I find that after 2 hours, the battery is rapidly loosing it's performance but my cartridge is still working. I immediately switch to the battery that's been charging, but it never gets a full 4 hour charge like it needs. I wish there was a long life battery! I've been searching the forum, but can't find the info.

    If you sit at the computer for a while have you considered a usb pass through. At least then you could vap whle the batts get a full charge. Would mean being tethered to the comp but don't most of us spend a while just sitting here

    I'm just starting to have the same problem. I have the pen style. I can't help you here yet. There are a lot of people here that might. One is Kate. Her avatar is a nun's habit and smoking a cigar.

    How long have you had yours? I've had mine since the 9th of November. Also, are you finding you have to draw stronger. Let's see if I can find Kate.

    That's one way, but the battery should last longer than 2 hours. Something isn't right.

    Is you red light turning green before you use it? Some have said to leave it charging longer but I am still having the problem.

    I plan on ordering a usb model, but would still like to have a long lasting battery for when I'm away from the computer. Thanks for the advice.

    Yes, it's a green light, but it's only on the charger for 2 hours and I think it needs a full 4 hours to really charge properly.

    Exactly and I agree. I put in a help cause I need it too. We have the warranty, but my question to NJOY will be, how do we vape if we send them in for replacement.

    I know the Service manager and I will ask him about keeping one while. He is gone till Monday. So we have to wait till then.

    My only suggestion would to let it charge longer and try not to smoke too much off the cartridge.

    Another suggestion made and I am going to try it. Let it charge 12 hours. So, go to bed and see if it's better when you wake up. I'd charge the other as soon as you remove the one for a backup incase. Hope this helps. I'm going to do the same thing. KIT


    I've requested you as a friend so we can stay in touch.

    theres been a lot of debate,and even a poll about how long the batteries last. my thoughts are that there is probably more variance in how much people are vaping in a given time, than variance in the batteries themselves. i would venture to guess that you are a heavy vaper since you get 2 hours. ive gotten 7 hours out of the same unit people are claiming 2 from, but they were less than a week old, so i dont know what the drop off is like. i second the usb power for you, i got mine yesterday, and its working great

    Seems some of these chargers are a bit iffy, sometimes the light on mine turns green

    after only one hour indicating a full charge, the performance was not good, so now i just

    ignore whatever the light tells me and leave it on for 4 hours, much better performance.

    keep on womblin!!!
