Initial charge time?

[Up In Vapor]

Just got my SB today with the Trustfire charger and 2 18650 batts. Have had the batteries on the charger for like 3 hours and still charging. Can somebody please tell me how long these things take to charge? Getting a sore neck from turning to look at the charger, LOL!!!
Can't wait to break this thing in. Also looking forward to the 6v vaping when the other batteries arrive.

Thanks!

i think mine took about 5 hours to charge the first time, but i charged them one at a time - don't know if that makes a difference. As for the 6V option, i wasn't sure if i would like it from things i'd heard (harsh,flavorless), but the SB is amazing at 6V and i haven't used 3.7 at all since receiving my 3V batteries.

OK, almost as soon as I made that post the batts finished charging...Murphy's Law in effect. I just took my first couple of drags/hits/puffs/tokes and WOW
I think I'm going to like this thing!!!

I sure do hope so

Thanks hp!

Now I'm just waiting for my 3v batts from Battery Junction and IT'S ON!
Man, this is one solid piece of metal

You're definitely more patient than I am. I've got some CRC123A's on order and couldn't wait for them, I went down to my local batteries plus and bought some disposables. 6v's is just too good to wait on the mail man

You had to go and say that...LOL. I think I might have to take a little ride tomorrow

If you're going to trek down to Batteries Plus, get their house brand. Price is like $3.90 each versus $7-8 each for the name brand. They work just as well. Dunno about your area, but most grocery stores also carry them, albeit a bit more expensive. Though with the cost of gas, that 80+ mile trip from your location to the nearest batteries plus - might not be worth the savings.

I grabbed a pair of 123's from Wally World and got my first taste of 6 volt vaping...all I can say is WOW ...and incredible
I vaped up some NHaler High Voltage RY-4 and found Nirvana

How long does the charge last on 6 volts?

I am using the tenergy CR123A 750mah and i have gotten more than 12 hours of heavy vaping at 6V's. which is fantastic in my book. i dont even bother with the 18650's and 3.7v! 6V is the... well, you know!
