Finally upgraded + a few questions...

[rice721]

so lets do some wattage calculations

Battery Voltage range for 18650 is 4.2 - 3.2
3 batteries in series : 3 x 4.2 = 12.6V & 3 x 3.2 = 9.6V

Assuming you wanna top out at 200W you will need : 200W / 12.6V = 15.87A | 200W / 9.6V = 20.8A

So LG HG2 at 20A is still within the limit.

I'm running the Sony VTC5s right now. His tv looking for something with a little more battery life.

i mean those x3 should easily last a full day if chain vape o.0 and 2-3 if you dont o.0 unless you're at running 200w or some crazy high wattage...

I've been checking the batteries voltage quite often and the most variance I've seen was like .04. If I keep an eye on them do you think I'll be alright charging them internally for a week or so?

NO. Buy a charger

Well my xstar vc4 came today along with 3 LG HG2'S and an aspire cleito. Didn't have much of a chance to play with it much on my lunch break but I got the charger set up and the new batteries charging. Looking forward to seeing the battery life on those and actually being able to fully charge batteries. Also looking forward to trying out the aspire.

I'm using an RX200 and a Crown tank, too.

I'm using three Lg 3000mah HG2 batteries. I'm vaping around 30 watts and get just over 3 days on a charge. I use a Nitecore i4 charger.

Thanks bad! I'm really liking the HG2's so far and the battery life. I'm also pretty happy with the charger I chose.

Sounds about right, I'm getting a day with my lavabox 900mah 3s lipo vaping the serpent at 30W.

I never really got to run my VTC5's with a full charge so I wasn't very impressed with battery life. I charged up the LG's last night and have been running the cleito .4 ohm coil at 55w and all 3 are right around 3.8v right now. This is more like the battery life I was expecting. Looking forward to seeing how the VTC5's are from a full charge.

I think this is a nice looking setup.
