Theoretically: About 1/90th (on an XL, less on lower powered batteries). Applied: Shouldn't effect the recovery time at all noticeably so there shouldn't be any practical difference.

Thanks Addy! I started trying to think this through but I really haven't don't know how that LED is wired into the circuit. I'm clueless without knowing the internal circuit diagram.
How did you come to the 1/90 figure. Actually I'd be more curious about the LED/ No LED question! 0.7 voltage drop across the diode seems like it would affect things. The LED can't be wired in series with the battery, can it? If it is taking it out should increase voltage to the carto.

Nevermind me, a little knowledge is a dangerous thing.

When I got word of the Stealth batteries I rushed over to V4L, Debit card at the ready! IMO, the worst feature of the KR808D-1 battery has always been the tip LED (or any other battery with a tip LED for that matter). And, then ... ALL Autos. :( Very disappointed. I hope this series will include manuals soon.

Interesting additions. One which highlights the LED with a rhinestone for LED fans, and "stealth" batteries with no LED for those (like me) who would prefer to not light up.

I may not buy either of the new style batteries ... but, I am running low on some tasty juice. So, it all turns out well that I came back ... been away for a while.

The LED is wired to a PWM pin on the MCU and the ground side of the battery.

That said - I went much simpler: Current draw of the LED as a function of total output/charge-life of the battery

WOW!!! Just received my last order yesterday, had to go back and order again today. Metallic Red w/red and Metallic red w/white, now all I need is the PCC for the XL's and my wishlist is complete. Thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am in China now, and have my first prototype.

Problem is it will charge 2 batteries at once, all sizes, holds 6 carts, and has changeable case covers

hope it aint a deal breaker

Enjoy

I remember many requests for a real red and requests for white tips, and requests for a better switch and lighter draw. Sounds to me like a lot of people got their wishes all at once.

Now we know why we aren't hearing a lot from Steve, He's been REALLY busy.

Hi Lee, I am in China right now, and yes, had less than 20 hours sleep, so far. I will be giving news along the way, and have to be back for at least a month after CNY so I can finally be happy that V4L has the Absolte finest vaping, in the world.

Y'all gonna be smilin

Sorry Dave....not at all manly! ; ) it looks like you really want attention badly ; )
I do love the Stealth battery, though. I will be ordering someday when manuals are available.

Steve: love the PCC for 2 batteries at once! can't wait.

You decide if its girly or manly :)
