Agggghhhhh!!!! I've gone about three days now without an analog with no problem! Wasn't even wanting one! My first and only order so far included just one auto battery.......well I got off work tonight and went to take a nice long vape once I got in my car and my battery died!!8-o For me when I get off I really need some nicotine right away and didn't even get one vape in before it died! I got rid of my last pack of cigs yesterday so I had to go to the gas station and buy a pack of cigs AND a lighter!!:mad: Even after three days without smoking they didnt taste very good but I had to do it........right??

I feel ya, I've been dreading that situation. Which is why I saved for the ultimate kit which has two auto batteries. I can use one while I charge the other. I also just bought a backup manual battery which I don't intend to use unless my autos die and hopefully I'll get more autos before the manual dies.

Don't feel bad, just get some batteries and vape again!

Does anybody know how long a battery will last if it just sits there fully charged but not being used? Say I have a battery I've been using most of the day and I bring a fully charged extra batt for back up.....how long will it last until it dies from not being on the charger?

Normally lithium-ion batteries will discharge around 1% a day. So once it is fully charged it should last awhile.

i typically bring 2 or 3 batts to work with me because i switch off to avoid overheating the carts. fully charged, they will both make it through an entire shift at work. i also carry a pcc just in case. usually, the unused batts will be okay through the day - when i get home, i'll switch over and they're fine. i would not leave them in the car on a warm day though. :cool:

That was another question I had.....Say if one day I buy a kit to use a passthrough in my car can I keep it in there or will hot/cold ruin the battery faster?

maaron, i feel your pain. do you need another battery? i've got an extra manual - pm me your address and i'll throw it in the mail to you (happy baby present). having a backup charged and ready to go is the only way to vape! just let me know ..

Gawd I love this group! We share the love.... :wub:

man that sucks and Im sorry to hear that. I had to take a huge step backwards and buy a pack of cigs when mine died no to long ago. Its just a huge disappointment but I know I couldnt make it going without.

Now I might be talking out my .... here but I believe the usb passthru really isnt a battery but more like a cart that is hardwired to power. Im only guessing so if Im wrong someone will come by and correct me real quick.

Sorry to hear about your battery/nic fit. I had a nic fit today, car broke down on a job. Co-worker came to give me a jump, nothing, turns out its a 700 dollar fix =\. I chain smoked menthol cigs for 2 hours. Hadnt had a full cig since i joined this forum, but i smoked them down to the butts. I feel weird about it now, but i gave the rest of the pack away to my co-worker and am back to vaping again, on a passthrough (gotta have it!) I really ought to invest in some higher nic cartos again, since my brother vaped all my 36mg juice and cartos already. Hang in there man we all slip, just gotta catch yourself and jump back on the bus.
