Hello guys,

Here's another noobish question for the more knowledgeable of us: how can I charge my ecig battery to maximize usage/life?
Breaking down the question in more specific chunks, please give me a hand in:

1. Is it okay to use my iphone/random usb cheap wall charger from tesco?
2. Is it okay to charge the battery when it's not completely depleted(do the afore mentioned batteries have a memory effect)?
3. Is it just me or charging the batteries in the pc's usb holds power just as long (if not better) than a wall charge?
4. Is there a certain wall charger that's supposed to be better than the rest (in terms of protection/electrical components)?

Thanks for the answers guys!

Ps: as a reminder, I have two batts: one from my evod kit and one from my imist 1 kit

Hello and welcome to ecf.
Did your kits come with wall chargers? I prefer that to one in a computer because have burned my usb port out before.
It is preferred to charge before battery goes completely dead. This helps to keep battery a longer period of time usually. They should blink when the battery gets low and needs to be charged. If you have a wall charger that is 5v then should be ok.
I would vape on one while the other charges so you aren't stuck for a time you can't vape.
Hope this helps.

Hello and thank you for the reply!
My biggest concern, however, is if these batteries have that dreaded memory effect as I used to use nicd batts (for my airsoft gun :) and if i charged them over another charge that was it, pretty much. In short, is it ok to charge the imist/evod battery say if I'm going out and its nearing depletion or is half charged and I've no time for a full charge?
