Is it possible to overcharge or "burn out" a battery? I keep 1 on the charger while I use one, but they seem to loose thier spunk after just a couple of hours so I am constantly changing them out every 2-3 hours.

If a battery is functioning properly it can be charged 300 to 500 full charges before it starts losing power. Normally after that time it will only charge to about 80% of the normal full charge.

You can charge them as often as you like. When the battery is down to 50% and you charge it that would only count as a 50% charge, not a full charge. When you charge it twice at 50% that would count as a full charge.

Right now you just started and I suspect you are chain vaping. I did too, but it will taper off.

And welcome Sean.

The e-cigs that look like a cigarette only have small batteries if you were a heavy smoker and are constantly vaping up to 2 hrs for a battery sounds about right.

They are not really made to replace smoking but to be used as an alternative when you cant.

I had a minimum of 3 batteries on charge and had 2 made up e-cigs that I vaped alternitavely when I started.

If you are hitting them that hard you need a big battery mod .
