The Darwin From Evolv!!!

May I ask who is benefiting from the raffles and fees? Who is the sponsoring group? Curious...........

Check out the link. this is a raffle to raise money for the We Are Vapers documentary Film. Lots of links around. here are a few:

“WE ARE VAPERS” – A Full Length Feature Film Documentary about Vaping!! Pre-Production filming begins SOON!!

I also have a detailed post in the Raffle thread.

Thanks! A good thing.!

Vaping a lovely 901 with drip shield and adapter without dripping...................OH MY! VAPEGASM! I so love my tanks, but oh my, the 901 was (along with 801) my first love and you never forget your first love, do you?

Speaking of which, DREW, what did you bring me from Chicago? Uncle Dagger was so kind to get me a goodie......wasn't that kind everyone? THAT, my friends is OUR vaping community. He doesn't know me from a can of beans........well, I don't look like a can of beans, ask Drew he will tell you. Sure hope Drew does Vapestock, I missed last year but always have a blast there. The folks are just wonderful. Hope all that went to the windy city had fun.

on a more cereal note........ahem...........serious......does anyone mind telling me how long your darwin batteries last and should I be turning it off when not in use. (That would be when I am sleeping) I am not getting the published battery life others are reporting but I am a chain vaper.

Too many variables for a reliable number. Only general averages apply. The primary two variables are the amps number on your screen and aggregate button time. Using lower resistance attys/cartos will draw a higher amps number. Using standard or higher resistance will yield a lower amps number. Amps is battery life so the higher that number the faster the battery will drain. Combined amps drain along with total aggregate button time will yield use "hours" but you cannot calculate this number. Obviously, at the same amps number, someone with an aggregate button time of 5 minutes per hour will get more "hours" compared to someone with an aggregate button time of 10 minutes per hour. But there is really no way to count or calculate your aggregate button time to compare with anyone else (thus, as I said, too many variables for a reliable number).

On average, using a standard resistance carto (around 2.8 ohms) and vaping at about 8.5 watts yields an amps draw of about 1.6 or 1.7 amps. Batt life can last me anywhere between 12 to 20 hours depending on how much I am vaping in that particular day. But, remember, these are rough averages.

Leaving the arm open will have no appreciable reduction in batt life. I have tanks on all my Darwins and always leave the arms open. While it is not necessary, I do take my tanks off and close the arm when I charge each night.

However, those posting 2 or 3 days are not doing you or themselves any favors. I know this is a long thread but it has been discussed many times. It is not good to run Darwin to cut-off on a regular basis. Doing so will, over time, shorten the life you get per charge cycle and may shorten the overall life length of the battery. I charge mine each and every night when I sleep. Darwin has "smart charge" circuitry so there is no concern about overcharging. Also, the on-screen gauge is not exactly accurate because it hangs at full for hours. Similar to some car gas gauges that hang near full and then drop faster, Darwin does this. Best to recharge if you see the gauge at half.

Hope this helps.

Yes, it does help. Thank you for such a lengthy post to explain so clearly to a techno retard.
I clearly NEED a Darwin for back-p, I am ruined for life, nothing else satisfies me. ahem...........in the PV area, that is!

Just by chance you wouldn't have an extra red Darwin around the house would ya?? Just wanted to say I thoroughly enjoyed listening to the discussion you were apart of on on ecig TV.....really educational and entertaining....appreciate it.

[bonniegirl]

or two?

I do need a back up...............I do.

It has to be soon for more Darwins. I have not seen a drought this long. Make sure to log into the nHaler site an request to be notified. There is certainly a lot of pent up demand for these bad boys (and the kicks too). Wishing you all a speedy release of the next batch!!!!

That's consistant with what he said at the Bash so I'd say we're go then....
