Great, I have seen your other post. Any chance of posting it in FT forum?
Tonight I charged my new hotcig to 90% after a USB battery recover. After 7 hours this morning it is at 70%. I didn't use it. Some short? Any ideas?
The battery's internal chemistry may be adjusting after the battery recovery charge. I hope that it will recover after a few days and charge cycles.
I'll wait some recharging cycles. The mod arrived Whit all 3 cells at 1.4 volts
Did you update the firmware yet? I believe the old firmware is what is draining the batteries during shipping.
And I'm still looking for something better and not seeing it. I wish this thing didn't have problems
What would make you say that? If the unit is off, why would it drain the cells at all much less unevenly?
I recall reading something on the Evolv forum about that but I'm baffled with the uneven cells part. it would have to be discharging through the balance connector to accomplish that. I believe it does have the ability to do that when balancing the battery via small resistors. Not sure though.
My hotCig200 should arrive next week. Posting this in case I have to recover low volt battery.
from Escribe manual:
Perform USB Recovery Charging
Performs recovery charging if any of the battery cells get discharged below 2 volts.
Must be logged in to Evolv server through EScribe so Evolv can record a recovery event
In Escribe - Device Monitor - Diagnostics - Advanced - Perform USB Recovery charging

Mine arrived Monday 10/05 but can't get to it yet since I'm out of town until Saturday.
Hope the battery won't be too shot by then.
Will perform a usb recovery immediately upon opening.
I do have a few 2s and 3s batt's that might fit, but not sure.
Keeping my fingers crossed on all accounts.

Got a link? Was it in early firmware forum & I missed it?
Guys, is there a way to disable USB charging every time when it is plugged in? I'd like to be able to use Escribe without initiating a new charge cycle every time.
If there is, I haven't found it. I would like that option too.
USB consists of four wires. I've seen USB cables that only do the charging without data connection. I'm wondering, if two wires are for charging and, the other two are for data... If it was that simple, I could just cut the two (or just the positive one if they are using common ground) wires responsible of charging and be done with it. I'm just thinking out loud.
Update: Yes it is. Google to the rescue
Boom, no more charging:

Good call, so now I just have to hack up a micro USB cable.USB consists of four wires. I've seen USB cables that only do the charging without data connection.
