well -- I was skeptical at first as to how long this 900maH batt would last me (510 cartos), especially considering that I read most high-end (not the extreme) folks vape about 3ml per day -- I seem to be averaging about 2.4-2.8 a day, and add another almost a full mil if I'm drinkin hehe...

so I got the batt today, and without throwing it on the charger just stuck a carto on it and never looked back -- that was at 12:30pm -- here it is 9:00 and only about ten minutes ago did I first notice the first inkling of what COULD be a drop-off in performance, and only by taking the carto off and plugging it into the passthrough to see if I got more vape on the passthrough -- not really sure, but maybe -- so, so far it's lasted 8.5 hours hahaha

that's just plain win in my book -- beats the carp out of switching batteries 4 times haha

btw, got it from FSUSA -- they've still got like 9 left I think

I really like that the end doesn't light up like a standard 510 battery... felt kind of cheesy hehe... this isn't a cigarette, but as you can see by this glowing light, it KIND of is.... whatever, just give me the vape

not to mention, the giant light on the 510 batts is suckin power... not much compared to the atomizer probably, but still - what's the point other than a little light like on this 900maH batt that says whether it's still charged or not

After mine blinked at me, I tried using it right after and it still worked, but not as well. :p I think the blinking means that it's about to die, not 100% sure, but they rarely do that for me so it's not a big issue.

They will blink a few times if you hold the button down for a certain length of time (at about 13 seconds...just tried it and counted slowly to 13, when it started blinking).

When the battery needs to be recharged, it will blink 20 times and then quit working. Takes 2 hours and about 55 minutes to recharge. My 900mAh eGo will last 9 hours with constant vaping.

excellent -- I figured because like four hours ago I saw it blink a few times, but that was because I was trying out all my cartos trying to find the right vape vs. throat hit for how I felt -- so I was probably hitting it too frequently or something

but uhh - I've heard talk here about 'cycles' and how many cycles a battery can go through -- the usual number is 200-300 -- but one thing I'm curious about -- just making sure -- a cycle is un-charging and re-charging right? I mean, I'm trying to make sure emptying it isn't considered a cycle and the re-charge another cycle -- because that would cut the number of times I can USE the thing by half if charging and re-charging are SEPARATELY considered 'cycles'...

probably a dumb question, not even sure if I worded it properly -- basically, how many times do you think I can charge this 900maH battery before it starts dropping noticeably in performance?

Yes the 900mah is a lot better and lasts longer than the 650. I'm using the 1000mah and it's great. But do not rate it on the first charge and use. ALL batteries perform spectacular on the first charge and use. My first time with the 650mah lasted 3 days then 1 day there after.

okay haha... so I'm not gonna get a real good bead on how well it performs for a few days probably

It's really good for me because some days I vape between 5-8mls!

wow... do you use LR atties or something? how is that possible -- most I can do in one day is about 4ml -- that's pushing it
