really? damn! ive been using my lr 306 on it at 3.8v... looks like its time to get a spare battery. i was hoping for longer battery life out of this new battery that they came out with.

How long does the battery last from a fresh charge? There are several reports of it lasting like 2 days. Then again it may be because you are using LR atties. With VV it is generally better to use standard resistance and just up the voltage a bit.

The only 'problem' of the ProVari. It's hungry Mine needs up to 3 Battery changes a day. App. 1 to 1 1/2 ml per load.

I'm wondering what the volt/ohms combination is for the shorter time results people are getting? I'd love to see or be pointed to some extended commentary....

Generally speaking, someone vaping at 5 to 6v on an 18490 is going to eat up those 1100mah pretty quickly.

I suppose my long run times on my 18490s are due to not vaping above 4.1v at 2.4 ohms.

My Provari lived ay 5.7v and I usually got about 5 hours out of an 18490.

I'm probably posting prematurely since I just got mine but I bought two of the 2500mah batts with mine. One of them I put on the charger right away, the other I started using right out of the box with the factory charge (usually 80%?) That first one lasted me 1 day plus 4 hours (28hrs tot) running a carto tank with a Boge 3.0 @ 4 - 4.2v.
I put the 2nd batt (the one that got the full charge) on yesterday at 3:30pm and I'm still using it. I'll post back when this one dies.
