Just put mine on the USB adapters and charger to charge. For some reason, the LED on both stays lit, as well as the blinking light indicating they are charging. Is this normal? My other Triton batteries don't do this.

I haven't tried charging yet, but when I turn it on or off, the light flashes 3 times. Is this normal? Doesn't happen with my regular Triton battery.
I figured I'd give them a full charge before testing.
Yes, 3 blinks on the VV, 1 on the standard.

Now the other one blinked a bunch of times- must have missed the blink on the 1st, and the light has turned off. Both are still charging, though.
Thoughts after about an hour. 4.8v really brings out the flavor in sweet and high VG juices. Haven't put in any 3.0-3.2 ohm heads yet. So far no burns on the 2.2-2.4 heads. Definitely more vapor production, but flavors really seem to shine. Seem to be going through more juice.
I don't want to like it too much, given the stockpile of fixed batteries I have. I'd hate to have to switch over to all VV. I didn't really think voltage would make much of a difference, but it does. Even on tanks I refer to as 'lazy'- ones I've been using for a while without changing the heads; it's like they have come back to life at 4.8v.

I really want to enjoy mine, but I've got a sinus thing going on. Everything has a metallic taste. Everything is either no throat hit or way too harsh. It's not the VV battery; even water has a metallic taste to it.
I've been waiting/stalking Halo for how long now? Of course this would happen.

Tried my first 3ohm coil. Quite a difference. At 4.8v., it always felt I was on the verge of burning with the 2ohm, so would only take a couple quick draws, but with the 3ohm, that concern is gone. The flavor is definitely brought out more at 4.8v. Have only tried with 1 flavor, though, as I only have 1 colored tank, until my order comes in this week. I may have to convert over to all VV batteries. Too bad they don't make a 400mAh version. That would probably fit in my VEA case; as it is, I'll keep using a pair of 650's for when I'm out and about.
What I like with the Triton twist is that I have some Coumarin Pipe Tobacco that vapes great around 4.2v, which is a freshly charged standard Triton battery. Problem is that it falls off pretty rapidly as the battery settles down. With the twist, I can keep it at that 4.2v and enjoy it at its best setting.
So the VV isn't high drain like the standard batteries? Maybe that's why the taste seems better. They last a long time for being 900mAh, if that's the case. I exclusively used a pair all day and night yesterday, and neither drained completely. They had to be low, though, as they took quite a while to charge this morning. I was using them mostly at 4.3v. with tanks with the 2ohm coils. Definitely noticed more juice usage.
You would burn through more ejuice at the higher voltage.
Hmmm, the Triton twist should drain faster than the standard 900mah batteries - mine does, but no surprise there. If you are running it much above 3.7 volts, you won't get as much run time which only makes sense. The nice part is that you will get a more constant voltage throughout the run time (although there is a little fall-off according to my multimeter). The Triton twist just like the eGo twist uses a buck-boster circuit to supply more constant voltage at a given setting. This both drains the battery faster as well as making it slower to recharge.
I can get a full day plus a morning out of a pair of 650's, so a full day out of a pair of VV's seems about right.
So far MIdnight Apple on the VV with a 3ohm coil head at 4.3 v. has been a great success. I loved the flavor when I first tried it a month ago, then set it aside because it seemed a little thick. Now it's really cooking.
