It certainly does ! If it is fully charged, which I have no doubt it is, cause I'm vapin like a chimney here, it means you should never have to wait long if you're caught out with flat batteries..... I'm getting through liquid like no ones business at the moment, I must try and put it down. luckily I should be having a delivery tomorrow. :D

Update.....Charging direct via the usb socket, constant light on, didn't notice how long but I put it on charge from flat, half an hour ago. Strange how it doesn't do it from my hub though. Maybe it's not pushing enough power out ?

Probably your hub is limiting the current or voltage when charging, direct from the PC provides enough power. Still can't figure out how the USB can fully charge a battery that quickly:confused:

search the threads on the evo as i think i remember seeing the seller saying that they are doing free international shipping for a short period of time.

I ordered mine thru the us distributer and paid alot more than the uk price, but I thought I would get it quicker and that it would be better to be a regular at store in the states. I ordered on Monday and havent heard anything yet. I'll let you know how it goes. I really want my evo! Its my first ecig and I really really want to try it!:p

I don't think you'll be disappointed breezy. It's a great ecig.

Fingers crossed for your mailman to get his skates on and deliver it. :)

I am being impatient cause I finally made the decision and I want it now!:cool:

If i dont hear something soon, Im going to order from the uk and see if it gets here first! Normally I am very PATIENT:oops:
Thanks for the crossed fingers!

I've noticed that this cut-out behaviour can happen when a battery is new (for some reason especially with the blue ones, but that's probably just me). If you let the battery run down to the point when it flashes and produces no vapour, then charge overnight, I've found that this can help. I think that the cut-off seems more sensitive in newer batteries and improves with time. :)

Found that if the atomiser is screwed in too hard you get this behaviour. What I think is happening is that the secondary hole on the battery is being blocked and the battery stays on until the auto cut off. You can see if you can duplicate this, screw the atomiser down really hard on the battery, see if the light stays on when you take a short drag.

I'm still have a problem with it cutting out,with both the batteries I received. I've drained the batteries and blown out the atomiser, but it's still cutting out, usually on the second draw. It was a little embarrassing today when I was showing it to someone and it cut out. I then have to wait 1min 20 seconds till it kicks in again. So i'm back to taking small puffs to make that one drag. I'm determined to crack it, because other than this, it excellent.
I'm going to try the second atomiser because when I gently suck on the battery alone, it doesn't appear to be doing it..........

.......Well half an hour passed with the new atomiser in and it's working like a dream ! Looks like there's a problem with the original one, I'm going to send them an e-mail and inform them of my problem, hopefully they'll replace the faulty atomiser.
At the moment I'm a happy bunny ! :D

Day two.....The other atomiser has started doing the same thing, not as bad but still to often for my liking. I'm just trying unscrewing a little to see what happens. Looking at it i can what you mean by blocking that secondary hole, would it not be better if the slots in the atomiser lined up with it.

Possibly, I don't know. I have one battery that seems to be very prone to this, driving me demented until I loosened the atomiser. It might just be this particular combination that's why it would be interesting to see how other EVO users are affected.

glad to hear your EVO is still working great after a month. ive not had mine as long as you but its still working great too!
i did have a problem with the cut out feature becoming a bit erratic but after i fully drained the atomiser over night it now works properly again.........so that was user error on my part! doh!

It's January the 3rd now. When do we get the EVO here? The waiting is killin me.
