SLB DSE101 - 2 Months only, under chainsmoking load, flat charge cycles, 1 probe

[Sun Vaporer]

Dse801/Rn4072 - 3 months rotating 4 under heavy vaping --never let them go to full discharge and always top off --Only demise was due to pressure switch failures---Sun

401 & janty mini fogger both a little over 14 days with no failures batteries or atomisers and I'm vaping these suckers all day because I WAS a heavy marlboro smoker

[Trumpybloke]

DSE901 slb's 6 under heavy rotation 4 months and then 4 failed within a week ( sticky switch syndrome after about 2 months dripping, guess it all added up )

Request: What are the signs that a battery is dead in comparison to the atomizer being dead. And if the switch in the battery is "sticky", how is that different than the battery just being dead. And can you "fix" the "sticky" switch? And in all of these problems, are there signs ahead of time or does it "just happen"?

3 out of my 4 penstyle batteries are working fine after 2 months/3 months constant use, but I take care to charge them completely (4-12 hours).

Overall better than expected!

only $160 spent Swanee?! that's amazing , in the last month i have gone well over $600... what recession?

as far as batteries , my three 901 batteries have lasted 1 month so far with no failures and constant rotation , though one of them has a switch that's going bad , the LED doesn't like to activate right away does this mean it's just sticky?

my Penstyle had a bad battery right out of the box , though it's getting replaced, i have only had it 2 days but after the initial charge the battery lasted almost 6 hours of pretty heavy vaping. Why aren't Pen Styles more popular? everyone wants those damn minis

How About a Poll?

With something like common Brands, Models / Styles, Average Times of Use, Time to Death, etc.

Something like that would be good, especially if we got honest answers from owners & not suppliers.

Just My Thoughts,

All My Batteries Suck, Too Many Different Models & Brands Too Post!

Keep Vapin!

I am afraid the technology just isn't there to make a small battery repeatedly heat a coil and last for very long with that kind of power drain.....that's why the passthrough's or something like the SD with it's large off the shelf batteries are a far better bet if you want to vape heavily without a constant need for new batteries.
