Battery Life

[terrie1]

I charged my battery overnight last night and got a good result from it, 4 hrs. this am Today I charged it and it worked one hour. I have ordered an extra but this will not even work with a battery lasting an hour to an hour and a half! HELP! please? Oh, I have a 510.

I think you are doing really well for a 510 (or you don't vape very much). I only got that much battery life when working and unable to use it. The best thing to do (in my opinion) is to get a mod. Regardless of buying one or building a nicostick (which I did), it's a great way to go. I seldom pick up my 510 or 901 any more.

Welcome to the world of 510's, poor battery life comes with the breed. Invest in a passthru for use with your computer and a PCC [Personal Charging Case]. Take a couple of batteries with you when out and about and one can charge while using the other.
As searcher said, consider one of the big battery mods for the ultimate 510 experience.

You can buy or make yourself a box mod that uses a 900mAh battery - I think the stock mega batteries only go up to 280mAh or so.

i am begenning to have the same problems... although not as severe... i just the other day purchased the parts to make a "nico-stick" the batteries on those last basically all day, which will be really nice.. the price to make one W/o batteries and charger for them is around 5 bucks may be worth looking into for you

1 hour ... even on a 510 ... is not very long and is not right. Put it back on the charger and let it remain chargong for at least 4 hours after the light turns green. Then give it another shot. See if that fixes it. Maybe justs needs a good condition charge.

sounds like you didnt get a good charge. for it to fall that much overnite isnt right.
those chargers arent very good sometimes.

but in the future when you can, i would suggest getting a mod that uses 14500 batty. lasts all day/

I have five batteries for my 501. Four are always in the charger (I bought one of those five-hole charger thingies) while I vape with the fifth.

When I'm on the road, I vape one, charge one, and keep three in reserve.

Between the spares and the car charger, I can generally get a whole day of vaping.

Once I hit the hotel, I charge one at a time to prepare for the next day.

Also, I have five atomizers and 8-10 carts filled at all times.

Yeah, it's a pain in the ..., but it beats smoking by a mile.

I think I'm starting to get the hang of this...
