I read about this on a couple of mobile tech sites. I'm excited to see how it is implemented in other areas, but I hope they really push for the chemistry R&D of it, as opposed to the current hardware/software requirement of the newer Snapdragon processors. QuickCharge 2.0 works well, but has me questioning the life of a small battery.
The article I linked was just about the battery chemistry. I saw nothing about snapdragons or software. Basically, the faster you charge a battery, the faster it reaches the end of it's service life. This new chemistry seems to give the rapid recharge without the degradation of service life. I've read about quick charge software. It reminds me of snake oil.

Oh, Hi, Lisk rig.

Hello Dave :)

I was just mentioning the current "solution" to this :) . Batteries have to be improved on an elemental level, and this company seems to be leading the way for that. Very excited to see what they are able to produce/sell to companies.

Yep. There is nothing free in science. Get one benefit, expect a deficit. A long slow charge will preserve the maximum service life. And the last part of the recharge is the most important.

I'm quite happy with the big 50w iStick (which Halo has licensed.) The thing lasts me well into the third day. :)

I LOVE my iStick. I'm debating on picking up a reactor kit, but I want to wait for Halo to release more flavors in 70%VG. I love the tobacco flavors from Halo (Voodoo got me to quit pipes) but I can't sub-ohm vape them. I could maybe do Tribecca, but I'd love for some of the EVO varieties to be available for the new hardware
