    could portable charger kill my batteries?

    I'm not sure which model you use and I'm also guessing you are referring to a PCC and accidentally put the battery inside wrong which meant the battery button was pushed in the whole time. I really don't know what to tell you, but if you plug your empty PCC into your computer USB and the red...

    Battery Life - Confused

    As already mentioned, it is 2-3 hours or so (depending on how much you vape) of use. I vape pretty steady and I used to get about 2 hours or a little less out of each fully-charged Joye 510 battery. One thing good to know is that how long a battery will "last" depends on its capacity which...

    How much have you smoked?

    I did the math months ago and figured that I had smoked more than 525,000 cigarettes in more than 36 years. Now I can't stand the smell of them. :thumb:

    I Am Amazed!!

    Isn't it amazing?! I figured I would be buried with a fresh pack of smokes and a lighter in my pocket and simply took a suggestion from a good friend and gave my first PV a good try. I quit instantly more than 8 months ago and so enjoy vaping! Congrats on your initial success and happy...

    Have you cleaned your atty and if so, what method have you tried?

    My first 5v Mod

    It's been done before and worked quite well, you'll have to search back a few pages to find it. Very nice mod! How is it working for you? :thumb:

    Not at Work

    I think it's unfortunate for you but you have a good attitude about and abiding by their wishes, there's really not much you can do about it. I used to work at a place that allowed smokers to take a 5 minute smoke break every hour which worked out to a total of a 15 minute break before and...

    How long to charge an 18650?

    I think mine are closer to 5 hours and the charge time may depend on how many milliamps it charges at. :thumb:

    The Bubble Pumper

    Actually it's a pretty neat idea to find and use something small that's going to give you a somewhat metered amount of e-juice with a simple push. Nice job! :thumb:

    I lost my pv :(

    Been there - done that! I lost my 510 in a parking lot with 2-4 inches of slushy snow last winter! I went back and found it in the middle of the drive-thru lane of our local Honey Do and although soaking wet and cold, a quick wipe and she vaped like a charm. I've learned my lesson and now...

    Does Your Lover/Wife/Husband Still Smoke?

    The wife and I both quit smoking cold turkey at the same time 2 weeks prior to 9/11/01. I spent the whole day (9/11) glued to the tv angry as I could be and blowing fuses in my head and smoked and smoked and smoked. I know that's no excuse but that's what happened. She never started and is...

    My first newbie mods...

    Very nice work and I like all 3 of them. Madvapes is a good source for a lot of mod parts and their 5v LDO regulator is very easy to work with so don't wait any longer, you've already got the skills. :thumb:

    Quality RCR123a and a good charger?

    Well, I went to Deal Extreme and found this one which has a switch to charge either 3.0 or 3.6 volts. I don't know if you've ever bought from them (direct from China) but it takes about 10 days to get it and shipping is always free. :thumb:

    Thank you.

    I agree! I would never had been as successful without ECF and all the information and very helpful members who assisted me along the way. I only hope that I can pay it forward. :thumb:
