OK, I want to know

Yes. The 380mAh has 136% the capacity of the 280mAh, is slightly longer, uses the same charger, takes longer to charge and would be a simple upgrade.

Beyond that, check out "The Modder's Forum" on here for info on using up to 3000mAh off-the-shelf, standard Li Ion batteries that you would buy a standard proprietary battery charger for and house it in an enclosure of your choice with the appropriate connector.

If you, or a friend, can follow the step-by-step posts from these guys and gals, the savings (using standard off-the-shelf components) is unbelievable! You can buy a 3000mAh Protected Li Ion battery for $6.

Good Luck!

The 380mAh has 136% the capacity of the 280mAh,- are you referring to a battery? If so where does it state the capacity, never seen it stated on any sight I have been on. I do have a pen style battery.

Erm . . . you're probably distracted with work or something? I explained mAh capacity of a battery in post #6 of this thread and you quoted me in your post #9 of this thread ... it's one of those words in red letters?

Yep, the capacity of little batteries is expressed in milliamps; the capacity of bigger batteries is expressed in Amps (Amperes). There's 1000 little tiny milliamps in 1 Amp. When the capacity is applied to time, mAh means milliamp hours. (500mAh = 0.5Ah)

OK, now IF (if ... if ... if) your 280mAh battery powers a device for 280 minutes (as an example), then a 380mAh battery will power that device for 380 minutes (in theory, and assuming the exact same conditions).

Now, re: the 3000mAh Li Ion battery - that is not going to fit into an enclosure the size of your penlight case. It is going to be about 18mm in diameter; your penlight battery is about 8mm in diameter. So ... that's why it's called a "mod" (modification). The reason for "modding" is to get more capacity (longer usage time per charge) and economy (these are off-the-shelf batteries) and utility (they are easily replaced).

The easiest "non-mod" for you would be the KR 380mAh battery - re-read the reasons in my last post.

Good Luck!

Well as it turns out I have the 380 mAH battery , which is what I was trying to figure out. I really do not see much difference in it than the others that are lower.I only bought it later because I liked the pen style.
As I said I am not up on the components or how they work and most of the sites do not explain their differences or uses.Thanks for the info.

I agree with you on the cart vs ciggies thing - if a couple of drips on my atty bridge = a couple of cigs then my smoking has increased from one pack to about 20 packs a day. SO yeah, don't believe that claim about juice amounts vs actual cigarettes.
If I ever take up smoking again I would smoke the entire supply for the south in about a week - apparently.
For me it 'feels' like a couple of drips = half or less of one cig.
Not sure how big carts your are, presumably a lot bigger than 510 carts, and they don't last me hardly any time at all. And I used to smoke ultra lights.
perhaps the comparison ratios are based on amounts of nic per item but even then, I think the numbers are all wrong so now i disregard them entirely and just vape when i want and stop when I want. I know this isn't a technical informative post but I wanted to chime in regardless

Puffice...what can i say...? you should probly just have some one do this for you

Oh I don't think that is necessary, I have looked at a few and think if I decide to order one it will be ok. They are just bigger than I wanted to go.
