I have two of them, one for home, one for work. I can get 3 days easily out of one of the devices, so with them in rotation I charge once a week.... so nice, sure beats charging (and keeping up with) multiple batteries EVERY DAY. Now just gotta get me some jwraps for it :D

Also, my .02 here but the beauty ring that comes with the MVP is UGLY man it's ugly. Depending on what you're using on top (ego threads or not..) with say a vivi nova or similar I use a type d DCT ego ring and it looks spot on.

Happy vaping!

I don't think you'll hear many extol the virtues of that beauty ring!

I generally use the type d as well, unless mounting something that has the ego threads or skirt.

I understand it seals to the top well enough to be a good drip well, but haven't used it that way. Mostly it stays in my "misc" box!
:laugh:

If battery life is your priority, and you are vaping at the mainstream levels than the MVP is a great decision. Don't even second guess yourself.

If you'd like the battery last a really long time than charge it every night. If you forget a night no biggie it'll still be in the green.

According to Battery University most Lithium Batteries are good for 300 charges. What many don't know is that if you use 1/2 the battery than the counts as 1/2 a charge. So you will get 600 1/2 Charges. The less a lithium Battery is discharged the longer the life.

By the way it charges off of a Cel phone Micro USB Charger and if you have a long cable you can operate the unit as a Pass Through. The kicker is that it will only operate as a pass through when in the Green or Orange, not in the Red.

My MVP lasted me 2 1/2 days of vaping a 2.5OHm Kanger at 4.2V

I've since switched to a bottom feeding VV Bogger Box combined with a RBA Reomizer using SS Mesh so my MVP is gathering dust. Sigh...

Uh, what mA rating on those? There's a pretty wide variety, from 700 to 1200 that I know of. So check the markings on them and add them up. That's your mAh needs for the day. The MVP can give you 2600 mAh, do the comparison.

Assuming your '350s are in prime condition and all at the lower end rating, then the MVP should be sufficient for your "day".

It's not just about battery charge. It's about the efficiency of the transformer and quality of the battery.

The circuitry that they use in the MVP is getting a high efficiency level. Probably 95% this is compared to less efficient systems that go as low as 70%.

The MVP is using battery packs, not cylindrical batteries and this may have a influence.
Never heard of anyone at any level not gettin at least a days use out of the MVP.

I go through three 18350 per day. sometimes I start the 4th.
Based on 3 18350 a day and an inefficient system. You'll get 2 days out of your MVP.

All 18350 are about 700mah. The ones claiming 1200 are inflating there numbers and end up around 700-800 max.

I'm going to repeat, with the MVP the circuitry is very efficient and you will get more life than just going by battery size.
