Bench Test Results: EVE 29V - 8.4A 2850mAh 18650…less expensive alternative for low power use

These tests below only note my personal ESTIMATED ratings for the batteries I tested at the time I tested them. Any battery that is not a genuine Samsung, Sony, Murata, LG, Panasonic, Molicel, or Sanyo can change at any time! This is one of the hazards of using “rewrapped” or batteries from other manufacturers so carefully research any battery you are considering using before purchasing.

Misusing or mishandling lithium-ion batteries can pose a SERIOUS RISK of property damage, personal injury, or even death. They are not supposed to be used outside of a fully protected battery pack and you use them at your own risk. Never exceed the battery’s true continuous current rating and keep the plastic wrap and top insulating ring in perfect condition.

Testing batteries at their limits is dangerous and should never be attempted by anyone who has not thoroughly studied the dangers involved, understands the risks, has the proper equipment, and takes all appropriate safety precautions.

If the battery has only one current rating number, or if it only says "max", then I have to assume the battery is rated at that current level for any type of discharge, including continuous.

Test Results
EVE is one of the large, established cell manufacturers in China (EVE). This is a cell for low power applications and where lower cost is a priority over performance, e.g., powerbanks, powerwalls, and larger PEV battery packs.

At 5A and higher this cell performs essentially the same as the EVE 26V - 7.5A 2550mAh. At these higher power levels this cell’s higher internal resistance means more voltage sag. This extra voltage sag nullifies the extra capacity this cell has. If you are down at one or two amps then this cell would run for a bit longer than the 26V due to the 29V’s higher capacity.

While this cell’s low current rating means it has limited use for vaping and esk8 applications I think it could be a decent cell for large e-bike packs, powerbanks, and other low power uses if you can find it for a lower price than cells from the big manufacturers.

The standard charge rate is only 0.56A and the fast/rapid charge rate is 2.8A. Never charge this cell at above 2.8A.

The cycle life rating in the datasheet is decent but I have not tested it.

The two cells I tested delivered 2758mAh and 2783mAh. This is typical consistency for cells I’ve seen from the larger China cell manufacturers but is below the 29V’s minimum capacity rating of 2800mAh. Since I cannot have the lowest capacity cells in the batch I am rating them at 2700mAh.

Two cells were purchased for testing by me.

Caliburn pod cartridges

$6 per box + actual shipping costs. These work on KOKO and the original Uwell caliburn, this is 1.4. I have 14 factory sealed boxes that each have 4 pods inside, one complete but open box and one with 2 pods in the box, I did a major stock up during one of the scares, and bought wrong one, I prefer 1.2 OHM. So Im willing to trade, or I can sell these, I’m told they are hard to find right now.

EASY BUILD DECK

pGxFDbv.jpg


Freemax_Marvos_RTA_Pod_Pictures.jpg



UNBOXING AND FIRST IMPRESSIONS


Packaging of the Marvos RTA Pod is very basic with the pod sitting in a plastic tray with everything that comes in the kit underneath the tray. The spare O-rings , 2 extra
clamp screws, 2 pieces of mesh strips, cotton, tiny blue screwdriver, user manual and your warranty card.

How long has it been since seeing a blue screwdriver in a bag of extras, (anyway) the pod is a silver color because that's all that is offered right now with a frosted plastic globe that is in a bubble style, (LOOKS GOOD).


20220108_085558.jpg


Opening up the pod to see the build deck is done with a 1/4 turn revealing a clamp mount system that is not spring loaded although the ceramic block that the cotton sits on is.

Freemax went with a raised deck style , I could see a lot of tail thinning was going to be needed because of the size of the wick slots, they could have been larger but with some thinning they work just fine.

I disassembled the RTA and put it in a ultrasonic cleaner with hot water and Dawn dishwashing liquid. Here are the 4 individual pieces including the drip tip.


20220109_094926.jpg



Getting the Mesh strips to sit even was a bit of a chore because the clamps are not spring mounted which makes it easier to install the mesh strip.

After clamping the strip down it was time to glow the mesh strip just a little to burn off any oils remaining from manufacturing, set the wattage to 10 or 12 watts and just pulse the fire button a few times to get a small glow, that's all that's needed to dry burn the mesh strip, you want to see a nice even glow throughout the mesh.


20220109_113758.jpg



Using mesh is a totally different animal in a RTA than regular coils, getting a dry hit from mesh is actually painful so make sure every piece of the mesh strip makes contact with cotton, you really want to have more than you think you need, having a spring loaded ceramic block really helps in the wicking process.

Taper one end and put it through the bend of mesh, press down when pulling the cotton through, your tails should be about 1/2 mm past the base, after cutting at 1/2mm you will want to trim off the tail of excess cotton at a 45° angle, you may even have to trim further with angled cuts if the cotton wont slide in the wick slots easily ( never pack it in the slots ). A good rule of thumb is to paint the mesh and cotton tails thoroughly before putting the deck on the pod/tank. Remember a dry hit on mesh is ( PAINFUL )!!!


20220109_120115.jpg


20220109_120632.jpg



After the pod and deck are connected lift up the bottom fill plug and fill slowly, there is not a lot of room for your bottle tip inside the pod and the hole could have been made larger for more air to escape. Freemax also includes a quick start booklet for you that's in the box also.


20220109_165816.jpg


20220109_105723.jpg



One of my favorite mods in the Marvos line is the beautiful Marvos S and that's right where it sits now, I have tried both mesh strips and prefer the 0.25 just because it preserves battery life by not needing as much wattage, flavor is pretty much the same on both mesh strips ( very good ). If you wick this mesh RTA Pod correctly you can chain vape it with no problem as my bubbles show, It keeps up wonderfully.


20220109_122820.jpg



USING THE RTA POD ATOMIZER


It's nice to see Freemax come out with another RTA Atomizer and it's really nice this one works on all Marvos devices. Mesh styled RTA's are very flavorful but cotton rewicking takes place more than traditional coils so there not for everyone.

The Marvos RTA Pod has worked just fine for me and being able to chain vape it if wicked correctly is a big plus, it simply keeps up and always stays saturated with juice.

I have 2 cons for the RTA, airflow is very turbulent when airflow is wide openwith a bit of a whistle coming through. This is a very airy pod opened all the way, closing the airflow down to halfway is a big improvement in performance but the wooshy sound still remains.

The 2nd con is there is not much room to get your juice bottle tip in before it hits the outer barrel, being this close does not leave room for air to escape when filling so you must fill it slowly or the juice will back up. Being a bottom fill RTA could be a con for some but in this application I see no other option but bottom fill.

I would like to thank Tina and Freemax for providing the Marvos RTA Pod for the purpose of this review, I hope my review helped anyone looking to purchase one.


THANK YOU

Micro side by side like the Rokin but for e-liquid..

Hey folks..

I'm looking for a tiny side by side because of the form factor and how stealthy they are, but I want a cleanable glass tank, not a pod. But it sort of looks like the VooPoo Drag Nano or Ak2 are my only choices..

Or are there any side by sides that work well with a nautilus mini or other quality mini tanks?

Thanks!

CENTAURUS MOD AND SOLO RDA BREAKDOWN


Lost_Vape_Centaurus_Quest_BF_Box_Kit_Parts.jpg



UNBOXING AND FIRST IMPRESSIONS


Packaging is very nice with the content box sliding out out a outer shell as most do, lifting off the top of the box reveals the Centaurus mod with the RDA already installed on it in a plastic tray, below the tray sits the 2nd juice bottle, charge cord, 18650 battery adapter, 2nd drip tip, spare O-rings, 2 solid 510 pins, user manual and warranty card.

I received the SS Ukiran leather that is done in a breathtaking Blue color that really impressed me. The first thing I wanted to see was Lost Vapes first RDA and see if there were any new RDA designs with it. At first glance after pulling the top barrel off I noticed this was going to be a very simple and easy RDA to build and wick because it has a velocity type of coil connection, but the airflow design was different, more about that in a bit. The 2nd bottle has a tiny silicone cap that's attached to the bottle that prevents spillage from the it after your finished filling a tank or dripping on a RDA. (Handle with care, very tiny connecter).


20220102_114845.jpg



First and foremost was breaking down the RDA to it's 4 individual pieces including the drip tip for a warm bath of Dawn and water, I say it all the time and I'm going to say it again folks, clean your new atomizers before using them, the RDA appeared clean when I disassembled it but faint machine oil is always a possibility. After cleaning I laid out the 4 components of the RDA for you to see them in before reassembly.


20220102_141410.jpg



As you can see the Centaurus RDA is a Velocity style RDA for coil leg attachment, being a top to bottom airflow type there are some turns that the airflow makes before hitting the coil on a slant from the bottom up, in the above picture you can see the 2 protruding airflow funnels on the inside of the outer barrel that connect to the 2 on the deck, also note the 2 tiny tabs on the deck that connect to the outer barrel's 2 cutouts inside it.

I decided on a Triple Core Fused Clapton coil at 3.0mm that came out at 0.31Ω. This is such a easy deck to build on and wick, when deciding on coil placement I found the best results are to center the coil and raise it to where the top of the coil is even with the top of both post. Airflow hits the coil at a angle and this position has the airflow hitting the coil at the bottom and middle of it. Because the air channels are far apart from each other I would recommend using a 3mm or 3.5mm coil.


20220105_155917.jpg



Wicking the RDA is also a easy process, after the cotton is installed in the coil thin out a bit and fluff the tails then cut the tails at the base, this gives you plenty of fluffy cotton to place in the wells. I would test the squonk function and after you see it working correctly paint the coil and wicks set your wattage and pulse the coil and repaint a few times to break the coil in.

I think this RDA is a very nice match with the gorgeous mod and the clear drip tip gives it a nice accent along with the Centaurus logo. I can't tell you if the carbon fiber on the device is real or not but it looks and feels like it is. As you look through the pictures in my review you will see Lost Vape kept branding to a minimum of 2 placements.


20220105_163147.jpg


20220102_122307.jpg



On the bottom is where the battery compartment cover and squonk bottle covers are, the battery cover has the flip up handle as many devices that have bottom battery installations do, the squonk bottle cover next to it is very small and a bit of a pain trying to grasp it to unscrew for filling, mine takes 6 twist to unscrew but the battery cover takes 10 twist, I'm not a big fan of this type of battery cover but they are secure and proven over time to work well. 3 venting holes are also on the cover. Be careful not to lose the squonk bottle cap because it's so small it can easily happen.

The bottle can be filled while it's installed on the mod or when it's off, to remove the bottle from the mod just pull down from the top or bottom of the bottle and it just slides off a rail. Installing the bottle back on the mod is just as easy and clicks into place at the end of it's ride back up the rail.


20220102_122835.jpg


20220102_142724.jpg



I think Lost Vape had a great idea with the 2nd bottle because some people will want to use a different atomizer from time to time whether it be another RDA or a Tank but still use the mod, this way they can.

The 2nd bottle installs with the bottle side being placed inward toward the mod and having the hard plastic side facing outward. There is a tiny cap on the fill end that is secured to the bottle, how long this cap stays secured to the bottle remains to be seen, it is very tiny and thin (be gentle with it) but you can see it in the picture below.


20220102_141822.jpg



The side of the device is where the squonking action takes place and the way the layout is makes this a very ergonomic squonk device, with the leather spine nestled in the crook of your hand your index finger lines up perfectly with the fire button leaving your middle finger placed right on the squonk bottle for a perfect position to press the bottle. Lost Vape really did a great job designing the device, everything just lines up perfectly in your hand. The fire button hits very fast with no delay whatsoever, I like the way it's angled and not flat, it's strictly for looks and I like it.

One thing that I forgot to mention earlier about the RDA is the airflow adjustment control is the top cap, there is a arrow above each airflow slot pointing up toward it. With the few 90° turns the airflow takes to get to the coil some turbulence is present but very little, flavor is very good but with a more direct route of airflow I think it would be even better. Not bad for a first RDA.



20220102_122609.jpg



I'm so glad the Quest 2.0 chipset is in the Centaurus device because I think other than a DNA chipset the Quest 2.0 is the best as of this date because it is so easy to navigate, OHMS are spot on, immediately fires, 3 user presets, six different color display screens, brightness adjustment, atomizer measure setting, and gives the user every power mode they could ask for with 8 power modes.

The front of the device has all your controls and type-c charge port under the colored display screen with the up button being on top and the down button being on the bottom and a dedicated menu button in between them . There is a angular design at the top of the face plate that looks nice by giving it a faceted look.

USING THE CENTAURUS QUEST BF KIT


I'm pretty sure that by now you know how much I enjoy this kit. Right off the bat it's beauty really captivated me and having the Quest 2.0 chipset which in my opinion is the best one out there as of today's date other than a DNA of course. The Quest 2.0 chipset has every feature you could want. I don't use temp control so I cant tell you how accurate it is in that department.

The options of this chip really hit the mark with a bullseye every time and this was no different. The way the buttons and bottle placement line up in my hand are perfect when finger firing the device or turning it around and thumb firing it.

Using a rail system for both bottles works very well and it secures the bottle with a click letting you know it's in place, providing a 2nd bottle that installs with the soft silicone going on the inside and having the hard plastic side facing out that matches the mod for refilling a different atomizer you wish to use that's not bottom fed through a hollow 510. It's a huge plus having the ability to use the mod in non squonk mode if you wish to.

I tell you folks this squonk mod is almost perfect except for the tiny bottle cover that for me is a pain to open because of my rather large hands and fingers.

I think Lost Vape did a great job on their first RDA, flavor is very good and would have been even better if the airflow didn't have the few turns in it's route to hitting the coil, also it would have provided a smoother airflow as well.

Building and wicking on the deck is a breeze making so user friendly, just remember to raise your coil to meet the airflow that is slanted upward, having the top of your coil even with both post gives the best performance for flavor.

There is a lot of space between both airflow post so I recommend using a 3mm or larger coil for a better experience.

In the time that I have been using this kit I have not had a leak from the bottle or RDA, it helps that the airflow post are high preventing a over squonk. A word of caution is not to squonk just before refilling the bottle because the RDA will be upside down and any excess juice sitting in the wells will spill out.

So in closing I will highly recommend this kit to you all, just about every feature you would want in a mod is in the Centaurus Quest BF Kit, and for their first RDA I commend Lost Vape on job well done. It's a winner folks!!!

New to vaping

Hi I'm trying to get the right adjustments to my new voopoo drag S and I had used a few nord mods but never liked those as much
So next few questions I finally could get flavor and an enjoyable drag off my voopoo going at 40 watts with 50/50 salt nic juice head brand but I know that's not the correct option ‍♀️ I was using 1.20 T1 coils anyways lowered it in my 0.3 coil burning at 35 watts still can't get much flavors out of it ‍♀️ any suggestions on how to get more flavor out of my voopoo drag s please?

LOST VAPE THELEMA SOLO 100W KIT review by hittman

Hello and welcome back for yet another review by yours truly. Today I will be taking a look at the Lost Vape Thelema Solo 100W Kit that was sent to me by Lost Vape in order to provide this review for you. The Solo is yet another great mod in the Lost Vape line that uses the Quest 2.0 chip that many of us have come to like very much and has been used in previous releases such as the Centaurus BF, Thelema 200W, Ursa, Grus, and Cyborg. The Solo plays off of the Thelema design as far as appearance and has a C frame for battery loading which I like very much. The kit includes the same UB Pro pod tank which is in fact a great performer but I feel like it’s time for Lost Vape to come out with a new tank or even an RTA to pair with the kits. Either way, I don’t think you will be disappointed if you decide to try this kit. Let’s take a look and see what’s included and look at some specifications then I’ll talk about my experiences with it.

INITIAL THOUGHTS:

The packaging for the Thelema Solo arrived in normal Lost Vape style. The white box with black writing and picture of the device inside on the front has become their signature design in my mind. As usual the package contents are on the back of the box along with a security code.

I know I’ve mentioned this once or twice before but like how Lost Vape wraps their mods in a protective cover for shipping. It’s that little extra bit of care that helps to set them apart. One other thing I liked and didn’t notice until opening the Solo was how the accessory box has the contents listed on the box so you know whether you even need to open that box or not to get you started. I personally did not since I have a ton of charging cables and intended on running the mod with a 21700.

I have the Thelema Quest as well as the Thelema DNA250C and feel like Lost Vape did a fantastic job keeping with the Thelema design and aesthetics. On one side is the Lost Vape name while on the opposite side is Thelema Solo. I received the stainless steel carbon fiber version so on the back of the mod is a carbon fiber covering with very little padding. A very attractive looking combination in my opinion.

The carbon fiber covering is part of the C frame battery cover. I like very much that they decided to go with this type of battery cover instead of a screw on battery cap on the bottom like some of their previous mods. To me this helps to keep the feel of the original Thelema design. You can see in the picture below that once the cover is removed that the battery polarity is clearly marked.

The front of the mod will look familiar to you if you have used any of the recent releases from Lost Vape in the Quest line of devices. This mod as well as a handful of previous mods released by Lost Vape uses the Quest 2.0 chipset. In my opinion it is a close runner up to the DNA chipset.

The large square fire button is near the top of the device followed by the vibrant display screen as well as the +, menu, and – buttons. Near the bottom of the mod face is the USB-C fast charging port. The display screen shows the following information.

- Coil resistance and battery percentage on top

- Mode of operation( Power, Bypass, Voltage, VPC, Ni, Ti, SS316, SS904)

- Wattage or temperature set

- Pod or Mod mode and user profile

- Normal/ Soft/ Hard operation mode and puff counter

- Setting on bottom that takes you into the menu system


The solos offers five modes of operation:

1. VPC Mode

2. BYPASS Mode

3. Wattage Mode (with soft, norm, and hard preheat level options),

4. Voltage Mode

5. Temperature Control Mode (SS904/SS316/Ti/Ni)


Inside the settings menu there are more options. They are:


- Atomizer( tells atomizer resistance and current settings)

- Screen( adjust screen brightness)

- User( three settable user profiles)

- Reset

- About( shows software version)



3 User Records

Allows you to create presets of different modes and easily switch between 3 user records while using normal coil, TC coil and RBA.


The Solo just like the other mods using the Quest 2.0 chip offers multiple safety features.

MULTIPLE PROTECTIONS:

①Short-Circuit Protection

②Weak Battery Protection

③Over Heat Protection

④10 seconds over-time protection

If you choose to get the full kit then it will include the UB Pro pod tank that has been released for some time now and was included with prior kits. I won’t go into great detail on the pod tank since I’ve covered it in my previous reviews. I will say that this tank is a great performer for flavor and vapor production whether it’s using the included coils or the optional rba. The included coils are the following.

UB Pro P1 Coil 0.15Ω

Coil resistance: 0.15Ω Mesh Coil

Rate: 70-90W

Available for DL



UB Pro P3 Coil 0.3Ω

Coil resistance: 0.3Ω Mesh Coil

Rate: 60-70W / 260-290℃ / 500-550℉

Available for DL


Also available as a separate purchase is the RBA which in my opinion works very well and is definitely worth the purchase price.

UB Pro RBA Deck

Resistance Range: 0.15-3.0 Ω

For DIY

FINAL THOUGHTS:

I feel like the Thelema Solo 100W kit is yet another great offering from Lost Vape. It kept with the design and aesthetics of the previous Thelema models while bringing the new feel of a thinner single battery version that will allow you to use either an 18650 with the included adapter or a 21700 for extended battery life. It seems to me that the Quest 2.0 chipset does a pretty good job of power management and felt like I got very long battery life with the 21700 battery being used.

I very much like the C frame design for battery replacement more so than the previous threaded cap design that has become very popular across different brands of mods. I do have to say that the unit I received had a little movement in the battery cover. It wasn’t terrible but if I shifted it in my hand the right way then I did get a little shifting from the cover.

The UB Pro tank and coils are tried and proven time after time to provide very good flavor and vapor production in my opinion. I personally prefer the .3 ohm coils and that is what I have chosen to stock up on. If you are one that doesn’t like to stock coils then the RBA is a great option. It is a fairly large unit which makes it easier to build compared to most that I’ve tried. Not only is it easy to build but also provides superior flavor whether you use a simple round wire coil or some other exotic coil.

I’d like to thank Lost Vape and Antonia for sending the Lost Vape Thelema Solo 100W kit for this review. Of course, a big thanks to all the readers. I know a lot of you don’t post comments but still appreciate you taking the time to read my reviews. Below is a link to the Lost Vape website if you’d like to take a look. They offer a wide variety of devices and I haven’t tried a bad one yet.

Resistance too low (Ni200), possible remedy?

Hello,
i have restarted vaping recently, thankfully I had stored everything in a box, including wire spools and wick material. Other than SS316 wire, I also have a few spools of Ni200, from 24 to 30 Ga. Unfortunately it's not easy to make a Ni200 with enough resistance to be recognised by the mod (I think it needs at least 0.05). I've got 22mm atomisers, so there's only enough room for 5 rounds(?) per coil. The "best" I got so far was 0.06, with 30 Ga wire.
I like vaping with a Ni200 coil, I prefer the taste of it compared to SS316. I only vape with TC enabled, and from what I remember, there's not many more types of wire that can be used with TC. So is there a way to obtain higher resistance coils, with the same wire?

Freemax Maxus Max 168W Kit With Side Filling System

Maxus DTL Pod by Freemax adopts a user-friendly side-filling design. So do you know what are the advantages over the vape kits with the bottom filling system?

It’s super easy to refill the 5mL Maxus DTL Pod by simply opening the plug and injecting e-liquid without detaching the pod from the mod. It just only needs two steps to finish refilling vape juice into Maxus DTL Pod. However, the vape starter kits with the bottom filling system need three steps - First, you need to detach one pod from the mod, then open the plug and refill the pod.

trying to replicate disposable cigaratte taste in Nord4

Hello,
i used to smoke around 6-7 cigarette a day , and trying to give up on it this year ...so i bought disposable pod like (solo 600 ) , which i found quite good and satisfying just like cigarette ...unfortunately that is too expensive ...so i am looking for vaping option , so i bought nord4 , and tried couple of things below,
1) eliquid 50/50 ratio with 6 mg nicotine salt in it
2) coil of both nord rpm 0.4 and 1.2 ohm, even though its said , 1.5 ohm is better for mtl vaping , i found 0.4 ohm at 24 watt , a bit better
with all of this , i find , my current setup very light in throat hit , and nicotine absorption.

So , my question , is how to i get more closer taste to disposable cigarette , something that mimics close to it , in my current setup for Nord4 or Nord4 isn't meant to be used like a Pod at all ?
Please, let me know :)

Thanks,

What do cell ratings actually tell us? Part 1B: Resting vs Under-Load Voltages

Expanding on my earlier post on cell voltage ratings. I see a lot of confusion regarding advice on how far down we can discharge a cell. The differences between these two voltages are important.

These voltages show us how the cell reacts to being used, or not used. They aren’t ratings or specs but they are important concepts for being able to best use the datasheet information.

Resting Voltage:
This is the voltage of the cell or battery pack when it has had a chance to rest after being used or charged. All of the datasheet specs are based on the resting voltage.

Under-Load Voltage:
This is the voltage of the cell or battery pack while it is being used, while it is “under load”. It is always lower than the resting voltage because of the voltage drop (“voltage sag”) caused by the internal resistance of the cell/pack.

This is not the true cell/pack voltage! It is just a lower temporary voltage seen only when it is being used. The voltage rises back up some once you stop. How much it rises depends on on how hard you were using the cell/pack.

Why is the difference between these two important?

The decisions we make about how hard we can use a cell need to take into account the differences between the resting and under-load voltages. It’s also important to mention which one of these is being discussed when talking to someone about cell performance or safety.

For example, the 2.5V low voltage spec for a “standard” li-ion cell is the resting voltage. If we are using a cell and the voltage sags down to 2.5V but bounces back up to 2.8V (or some other voltage) then we have not discharged that cell to 2.5V. The voltage sag that caused the temporarily lower voltage only made it seem like we discharged it that far. In this example we have only discharged it to 2.8V.

But if we used a cell and then stopped for a while (at least several minutes) and the voltage only rose back up to 2.5V then we should not discharge it any further. This cell has had time to settle to its true (resting) voltage and it’s down at the 2.5V low voltage rating for the cell. We should stop using this cell and charge it.

When someone says “never go below 3.0V per cell”, or some other level, it’s important to know if they are talking about the resting or under-load voltage.

Going to 3.0V/cell while being used is a lot less stressful to a cell than taking a cell down to the point where it only rises back up to 3.0V after a couple of hours. Using a cell until it drops to 3.0V means it might bounce back up to 3.3V or even a higher once you stop. But that cell with the 3.0V resting voltage might have been discharged to 2.8V or even a lot lower. This can create more heat and age the cell faster.

Charging Voltage Sag:
This is a third example of a “phantom” voltage. While charging a cell or pack you will see the opposite of what happens during discharge. The internal resistance of the cell cause a voltage rise instead of the voltage drop (sag) seen during discharge.

This is what causes the cell voltage to almost always read lower than 4.20V after charging to that voltage. The resting voltage might be pretty high, 4.19V, or it could be a lot lower, 4.15V, if the cell was older and had a lot of internal resistance or if you were charging very quickly.

This usually has very little effect on how completely the cell was charged since most chargers keep going until the current has dropped to a certain level, they are not fooled by this phantom voltage rise.

But if your cells are dropping down to around a 4.15V resting voltage, or lower, then I recommend charging slower to minimize the voltage rise in the cell. Some chargers are more sensitive to this voltage rise that than others and all chargers are affected by it a bit at high charging current levels.

Examples of Resting and Under-Load Voltages:
Examples of a cell at its resting voltage are easy to find, just don’t use the cell for a couple of hours. You can get a good idea of its resting voltage after a few minutes, perhaps just a couple of minutes, but it takes up to a few hours to come to its final resting voltage.

The under-load voltage can be seen any time a cell is being used. The harder you use the cell the bigger the difference between the resting and under-load voltages.

If you are a vaper you might have noticed this happening while taking a puff with a regulated device (with a display). The cell voltage/percentage or the number of “battery bars” will drop when you take a puff but then go back up when you stop. The higher the power setting, the larger the voltage drop will be.

If you have ever checked the voltage of your battery pack when riding an electric skateboard or e-bike you might have noticed the voltage dropping whenever you accelerate and then going back up when you are just cruising. This is the voltage sag difference between low power cruising and the high power being drawn from the battery pack when accelerating.

The under-load voltage effect isn’t only visible when comparing it to the resting voltage. The under-load voltage difference can also be seen when using a cell/pack at two different power levels (like when cruising or accelerating with an e-bike).

Using Resting and Under-Load Voltages Properly:
If we wanted to always stay above 3.0V/cell (or some other voltage) to extend cell life then we should be paying attention to the resting voltage we bring the cells down to, not the under-load voltage.

This means we can discharge our cells to under 3.0V (or whatever you chose) as long as the voltage rises back up to at least 3.0V in a couple of minutes.

If you stopped when the cells reached 3.0V/cell under load that means you might have only discharged them down to a 3.2V-3.5V (or even higher) resting voltage. This is certainly better for the cell, helping to extend its life even more, but you are missing out on the additional run time you could get by using the cells down to a 3.0V resting voltage.

How much a cell’s/pack’s voltage rises back up when you stop using it depends on how hard you are using the cell/pack. A powerbank user might have to stop at 2.90V to be sure the voltage rises back up to 3.0V. But a high power vaper or PEV rider might be able to run the cells down to 2.5V each and still have them rise back up to over a 3.0V resting voltage. You’ll have to experiment to see how your setup responds.

High power battery pack users should be very careful though if bringing the voltages down low to maximize running time (while still having a decently high resting voltage).

If the cells in the pack are unbalanced or aging, and you do not have a BMS monitoring each cell for low voltage, then you could force one or more cells down to a very low voltage. This can possibly harm the cell.

I recommend monitoring the voltage of each cell, instead of just the pack voltage, to make sure you are not overdischarging any of them. I think 2.5V under load is a good minimum to stay above to give you a bit of a safety margin.

That should give you a little idea of how a cell responds when used and at rest. Knowing how the resting and under-load voltages are different, and how to best use them, is important for getting the most out of your cells. This is true if you are staying well within the cell’s ratings or going far beyond them.
