Just got started vaping 7/26. Joined this forum yesterday. Loving both so far. Got 2 nice set-ups from a local b&m shop (2 Vision 1100 mAh batteries for me & 2 650s for the little woman) for what I believe was a reasonable cost. I guess my biggest question is, has anyone had trouble charging their batteries? She hasn't had to charge hers much. Mine need charged every day (which I know is because I vape much more than she does) but it seems like the one battery won't charge fully, regardless of the length of time it is on the charger.

Do you have a multi meter? If so, take a reading of the battery and see if its charging fully. Should be 4.2v when fully charged, I think. If not, you either got a bad battery or a bad charger (probably battery if the other one is charging fine). Take it back to the b&m and see if they will trade it out for you.
If you vape like me... You need to charge your batteries every day.

This!! It seems no matter my device i have to charge daily. Also welcome to ECF.
Welcome to the asylum juice...
Are they genuine Vision? Considering the price of an eGO, regardless of brand, and the fact that they are made in the hundreds of thousands... it's entirely possible that you got one with marginal workmanship. All it takes is a solder connection or mechanical contact with a slightly higher than optimal resistance spec, and you've got problems.
Buy a new (and different) battery... perhaps a Twist or a pass-through, or even a VV pass-through... or an Innokin iTaste 3.0.

If I'm reading your post correctly, it looks like one of your 1100mAh batteries doesn't seem to last as long as the other. Does it charge at all? i.e., when it goes completely dead and won't vape any more, will it charge for a few hours and then vape as normal? If it's not charging at all, then try cleaning the connector with a Q-tip and some alcohol. If it finishes charging quickly and doesn't last for long after that, then you may have a bad battery.
Thanks for the welcomes! I've already returned one battery for charging issues. I do charge them every day since I tend to chain vape. To the best of my knowledge, they are genuine Visions. Don't have a multimeter, but I could probably get my hands on one at work. I'll look into that. Eventually, I would like to aquire a vv setup, but am on a bit of a budget restraint at the moment. Idk. I'll be back at the b&m next week for more juice. I'll talk to him then. Barring, of course, any other serious issues. Thanks for the input! And thanks again for the welcomes!
When I charge the "good" battery the light on the charger turns from red to green within a few hours, indicating a full charge. With the other battery, I can leave it on the charger for 10 hours and the indicator light will not change
Assuming you are using the same charger for both batteries, the second battery appears to not take a full charge. It's minimally defective and needs to be returned as such.
