To revive an older thread with a bit of warning. The other in my life (not sure the "s" fits here) has continued smoking after she talked me into buying PVs going on three years. She's occasionally use one, normally when she couldn't smoke, but never really tried to quit. Lately she's made a concerted effort and I loaded her up with 510 equipment and
juice.
She quickly wanted something more powerful and I had a Tornado
tank with two batteries and felt that would save her the battery maintenance step. All was kind of good for a week or so. I had a T-Tank that I'd used for a couple years that still functioned well for its age. Then she went to her sisters.
Her sister and her bf had followed my lead and started
vaping. He must have gotten some variable output device and was using a 3.5ml Dual Coil Cartomizer Tank. He had extra tank cartos so he gave one to her. She came home this weekend all excited with her new acquisition. She was smoking it like a real cig, no primer puff, just a lot of vapor. It was Saturday, I was tired and just said nice and she went away. Until last night.
Bottom line is that both the Tornado batteries were killed and I was spending all morning learning how, or potentially how. These weren't new batteries, but weren't showing signs of dying. They held their charge well throughout the day and I know she was living her day puffing away. However they did have their share of charges on them so I don't know how long new ones might have lasted.
I was forced to pull out my brand new Screwdriver still in the box and set her up with the tank on it. I really don't know what to expect the atty life to be, but at full charge on the SD batteries at about 4.2 volts on a 1.5 amp atty, it's throwing 2.8 amps of current through it so who knows how long the atty will last. I know at 11.75 watts, it sizzles on a puff.
This could get expensive.
