Ego twists taking forever to charge

[Kenho21]

I have four Ego twist 650 mAh batteries and all of them take somewhere around five hours to charge, give or take. They used to take no more than two hours. Two of them are brand new and have only been charged about twice and they have done it since the second time I charged them. I don't understand why, they never used to. I use genuine joyetech chargers and plug them either into a wall outlet or a power strip, doesn't matter though, they still take forever. I've always vaped the same stuff on them as well Boge LR cartos, some ce3's, and other "normal" stuff. Can't figure it out for the life of me. Even in the car they tae forever, it really doesn't seem to be the power supply.

Anybody have any idea?

Have you tried cleaning the contacts on the charger and batteries?

I assume you have the 420mAh charger, which should take 2 hours. The ~200mAh would take 4-5 hours.

OP...I have some 1000mAh twists...yes, they DO take a while to charge.

The wait...

Hmmm, can't believe that didn't cross my mind. Just checked one of the Joyetech chargers and it's only 120mAh for the male USB end that plugs into the wall adapter. The wall adapter is 500mAh. I just swapped the corded (male end) for a 420 mAh one that I had layin around. I guess I just assumed the Joyetech would be the optimal mAh for fast charging. I'm assuming they go for longevity, not speed.
