Can anyone help me sort out battery problems? I bought two DSE 905's from OKSmokey back in August. Only used for a week or two, then put on one side until about 10 days ago. Since then both have been in full time use! BUT of the 4 batteries supplied, one would not charge, and another failed within a few days of use. OKSmokey say not their problem as they are over 2 months old. At £5.99 a pop I don't feel like buying more from the same supplier if they are not going to last for any sensible period of time. It is NOT CLEAR whether the original battery supplied is protected or not. (They are made by DHR in China). Given the intransigent attitude of OKSmokey and their lacking replies to questions I am reluctant to even ask my question of the supplier.....
SO, I have been looking at alternative suppliers: Ebay supplier can produce one that looks equivalent (protected, AA size, ICR14500, 900mAh 3.7 volt by Trustfire, from China). About £28 for 10 batteries, from memory. Looks a good price. But are there bet
ter ones around, what should I be looking for, and is there a good UK supplier? I'm finding it hard to get independent advice - ask the question of any supplier and they just direct you to their own batteries (even if the spec seems different, which seems odd)
Given that I don't KNOW anything about batteries, what constitutes a risk, what is likely to last and not cause damage to the ecig (or me) etc, I'd like sensible recommendations please. I'd obviously like to be able to use the charger already provided (it seems to register when the battery is charged. a red light changing to green on full charge). I don't know if it matters leaving the battery on charge when the green light goes on (I tend to put it on overnight). I am struggling to find batteries that will last at least a few weeks and be genuinely safe to use.
Thanks for any help
