Adding another battery to the arsenal

[Garemlin]

Currently have two X2 900mAh and a 1300mAh spinner. I have in all honesty found the spinner does not do much for the flavor at different settings so I tend to just keep it at the 3.7-3.9 range. But I find that it seems to drain pretty quick. So I was wondering should I just go with another reliable 900mAh X2 a 1300mAh X2 or get another spinner. The thing I like about the spinners is the quicker charge times. And as long as it takes my 900's to charge I am thinking the 1300's will be even longer. I am pretty sure the 650mAh is out because I have read that it usually only lasts as long as a T3 tank. Which at times I can go through pretty quickly. Well the T3 mini anyway.

Thoughts???

Have you considered an APV? I just picked up a S.I.D. on Friday and haven't touched my twists. Even pulled the trigger on a VAMO because I'm loving the S.I.D. so much and want a back up, but also wanted to try a different one. May add one more down the road, and looking at the new Lava Tube.

I'll keep my twists, when I want something smaller, but I have not been able to put down my S.I.D since I got it.

The flavor is so much better!

Already have too much invested in the ego/vgo stuff to start over. Was trying to keep it standardized.

Why not get another 1300 spinner. At least you would have the option of raising or lowering the voltage. Also the faster charge time is the other benefit.

If you want the option to use a passthrough, then the X2 would do. The charge time for the 1300 X2 is extremely long especially if it is completely drained. Not to mention it's long and skinny. Put a regular T3 on it and you would have a weapon.

I was thinking about getting another 1300 spinner. But my experience is battery life is almost half as the 900 X2. Weird huh??? I already two pass-thru batteries so don't know if I really want another. Wish there was just a regular X2 that charged like a spinner. Then charging would prolly be much faster.

Agreed. If I remember correctly I have had to wait up to 8 hours for my 1300 X2 to charge. That's too long if you ask me. Especially considering that the 1300 Spinner will charge in less than 3 hours even when completely drained. I like the shorter and fatter design of the 1300 Spinner better anyway. I haven't noticed a shorter time between charges compared to the X2 but I haven't really paid much attention.

I also generally keep my Spinner set around 3.7 volts, give or take a few, but I like having the option to adjust voltage even though my adjustments are usually very minor ones. Since I got my first 1300 Spinner I have purchased another one and I rotate those two. I rarely use my 1300 X2 anymore. I got my X2 before I got my first Spinner and my decision to get a second Spinner was a no brainer for me.

I guess I just like the look, feel, charging time, and overall performance of the 1300 Spinner.

Ordered another 1300 spinner in case anyone was wondering.

@SnowDog: How you get a charge so quick on your 1300 X2??? My 900 X2's take sometimes 10-12 hours.

Good move. I was in fact, wondering what you decided on.

Oh my! One of the reasons that I don't use my X2 much anymore is the long charge time. If mine took 10-12 hours I probably wouldn't use it anymore at all. I'm using the 1.5 amp wall charger. Is that the same one you are using?

Yup that is the one I am using. Still takes that long.

Good move! I would probably just have spinners if they were out when I decided to add some large batteries to my collection. Right now, my X2s are backups just in case...
