When I first got my 901, I thought I had magic batteries...they lasted like 8-9 hours. I knew that would decrease, but I'm only on my fifth day with them, and they're not only not lasting as long, but they acting totally goofy. They'll seem fine when I first take them off the charger, but very quickly after they'll start acting like they're dying. I'll take them off and then screw them back on and then it will be fine for awhile sometimes, and other times it will just give me a couple more hits and start doing it again. Is there something wrong with my batteries or are all batteries tempermental like this??? Are they any better with penstyles?

Hey Erica, Like Shawn stated ... most 901 batts you can get about 2-3 hours from when they are brand new. When you say they are acting like they are dying, are they just flashing 5-10 times after several puffs?

You may be inhaling too long on each puff or taking too many puffs in a certain amount of time. Each will activate the auto cut off and not allow you to draw any more vapor until the lights stop blinking :)

hahaha ...

What you should do is start with 2 fully charged batteries. Vape on them until the recharge flash happens, and keep track how long it took to get to that point. Remember, no inhales for more than 3-4 seconds or the auto cutoff will start. Also, if you take several short primer puffs before a long inhale, that can also trigger the auto cutoff.

They are feisty little things ... so just keep us posted :)
