EVO Battery Life?

[The Wrong Man]

OK - first off, I absolutely LOVE my new EVO! I've had it for 21,546 minutes and haven't smoked an analogue for 21,547 minutes (will switch to hours once I can think about an analogue once an hour instead of once a minute )

BUT (there's always a but, isn't there?) I'm not seeing anywhere near the kind of battery life that others on ECF are reporting..... There's a thread somewhere (sorry, I can't find it again right now) that talks about EVO batteries charging in 15 - 20 minutes and in his video review, terraphon talks about battery life of 8, 10 or even 12 hours..... I've got 2 'genie' batteries and 2 black 'mighty atom' batteries. The genies take around 2 hours to charge and last somewhere from 3 hours (heavy vaping) to 5 hours (occasional vaping). The mighty atoms take 90 mins to charge and last 1.5 to 3 hours.

Now, compared to my DSE 084, this is still pretty good BUT it's nowhere near what others have reported so I was wondering, have I just managed to get 4 duff batteries (?) or 2 duff chargers (?) or are others exaggerating (?) or am I just missing something?

Would love to hear comparrisons from other EVO users (particularly those with the new style 'cordless' charger).

Cheers y'all

My charging and vaping times are similar.

when I had my evo the genie batteries charged within about 15 minutes on my usb..and lasted for about four or five hours fairly heavy vaping when they were new. ( I have always used about 3 to4 ml of juice a day.)

I just use the genie batteries, they take 3 hours to charge and last roughly 6 hours of pretty heavy vaping.

Cool, thanks for the replies - sounds like mine are performing as normal.
