For me I find that all my juices taste better at the highest voltage so I have no problem with less battery life even as the battery starts to drain. I'm ready to buy a 2nd one.

I currently use 900mah eGo batteries but find this kit to be very intriguing. I usually get about a day or a little over with 900mah. How is the battery like with 650mah? Is it worth trading the battery life for variable voltage?

each voltage is maintaned. there is 3 of them

Not totally finished review of entire thread so answer may be here. But, when you say each voltage is maintained, what do you mean? If I set to 4.2 does that mean a 4.2 voltage unloaded? And will it stay at 4.2 until cut off or does it slide downward into batt cycle use life?

actually after many people tested the product, not the passthrough but the actual lcd variable ego, they drop a few points under load T EACH SETTING but after testing it seems to hold its charge pretty well and underload at 4.2v it was staying at a consistent 3.9 which is better then a regular 4.2 device they tested as well.

What's the voltage measure on these under load? I've read elsewhere that even though the ego batts are 3.7v, under load they put out 3.1. That's a big difference.

The nominal rating on an eGo batt (Joye type) is 3.7 volts. However, they are PWM batts (pulse width modulated). On my multimeter they will measure 3.44 volts unloaded usually - just off charger. Meter set at DC volts. Close to cut-off at end of cycle life - also around 3.44, unloaded. Loaded with 2.5 ohm atty, meter read is 3.23 - just off charger. Close to cut-off - 3.23 volts. Batts without PWM would usually be 4.2 volts, unloaded, just off charger and would drop to something close to 3 or 3.1 near end of cycle life. Nominal rating of non-PWM case would be 3.7 volts as well.

Atty resistance: 3 Ohms

Vu - Voltage unloaded
VL - Voltage under load

Fully charged - 5 led bars:
Vu: red: 3.03-3.3V; purple: 3.70-3.8V ; blue: 4.2V
VL: red: 2.80-3.1V; purple: 3.46-3.6V ; blue: 3.9V

With 3 charge led bars (while working):
Vu - red: 2.82-3.11V; purple: 3.47-3.60V ; blue: 3.90V
VL - red: 2.65-2.92V; purple: 3.26-3.39V ; blue: 3.68V

Going to 2 charge led bars (while working) - end of charge:
Vu: red: 2.68-2.95V ; purple: 3.28-3.41V ; blue: 3.69V
VL: red: 2.52-2.76V ; purple: 3.10-3.21V ; blue: 3.49V
