Ego-t 900mAH battery

[aaron99]

I have been using an ego-t with the double coil cartomizer and really liking it. I recently bought a 900mAh battery (labelled as Ego-T) but find that it cuts (battery flashes) much sooner than my smaller batteries. In fact my smaller batteries really don't go into into protection unless I take several long draws. Is this usual for the larger batteries, or is there perhaps a fault in the protection circuitry?

seems too cut-out at around 4"

Maybe you didn't really get a true 900 mah battery? Is it longer than your smaller batteries? If it is a different size, than maybe it's not being charged properly. I have a lamp timer that is used to turn on/off whatever is plugged into it at certain times. I normally set the "on" when I go to bed, and set it to go off about 4 1/2 hours after I go to sleep.

Maybe it's because the 900 mah battery has a cutoff? Mine does that sometimes when I hold the button down too long.

I think the cut off on those is 10. Could be something wrong with the switch if its doing so at 4.

Or you could be accidentally pressing the button 5 times within a couple seconds? The eGo-T batteries have a lock function. It looks similar to the dead function as far as flashing led.

No, its not that i am switching it off, and it is longer than a normal battery. I'm not sure about the electronics, but maybe it is just a bit too sensitive to (current / heat?) than the normal batteries.

If it is continually going into protection, do you think it could damage the battery? its not getting hot or anything. Even though its annoying, i guess it is better than just running until the battery does blow. Do you think this would be a good reason to return it to seller?

 

[swedishfish]

Since it's so new and it might be still under warranty, I might.

 

[John Wayne]

Definitely. Contact the supplier and they should sort it for you.

Thanks, just wanted to make sure it wasn't a known issue with the larger sizes
