510 and 12 hours

[tankerman]

Hey yall
Well I pulled a 12 hour shift today at a location where their is NO SMOKING anywhere. I can not tell yall where I was due to I was vaping on a barge!!!
--By the way I know these things are not Intrinsic safety but I think they are safe enough. I was working around a product with a flash point of -32 deg and their was no booom lol--
But I went 12 hours just vaping. My 510 batts worked great!! I did not even drain 1 batt. I have read that thes batts do not last long but mine did I did bring 2 batts with me just incase
It has been 7 days from start of vaping and I have already cut my analogs by 1/2. I tried to stop them all toghether but can not. Oh well
I have been smoking for 31 years and being able to do this is a big VICTORY!!! THANK G-D

Congrats tankerman! I love my 510 too. Anytime you eliminate an analog, it's a victory. Here in FL analogs just went up a dollar a pack. I lost track of how much they are here now, I already couldn't afford them before the dolllar/pk hike.

fyi most people who report poor batt life on 510s don't charge to full capacity (they take them off when lite turns green).If the charger is correct this will be in the 3.6/3.7 volt range. they will however "top off" charge up to 4.2v this takes around 4hrs total charge time. when i do this i'll get 4hrs of HEAVY usage off a charge.

On my wall charger when the light turns green the batt is at 3.98-4.01v and if I leave it on overnight it is at 3.98- 4.01v. Maybe you got a different charger.

Outstanding!

I have been following your story since you started posting.
I suggested due to your vaping habits you might even get by on one 510 battery.

Looks like that turned out to be the case.
I get by on one 510 battery myself, every single day, but I mostly only vape outside on breaks.

I vape my 510 constantly now for about 9 day (I've only smoked 13 analogs in that time- 1 yesterday and zero today). I use EFT Emotional Freedom Techniques / aka Tapping (This is a form or emotional accupuntture withoput needles) to controll my I need a real cigarette cravings. EFT can be learned for free at Emofree.com Tapping has really helped me stop wanting an analog.

My 510 batteries only last me about an hour or so at optimal condition. I have the PCC and it is the best I just change batteries every hour or so all day, it keeps charging the next one.

Go San Diego Chargers!

Glad you are enjoying your 510 and pcc setup after what sounded like a less than thrilled introduction to the unit. Enjoying mine as well
