I've been in a single-coil groove the past few months, mostly twisted, Clapton, and twisted-core / fused Clapton coils with my RDA's on my Joyetech Cuboid (the original dual 18650 model). So it's been a while since I vaped at more than 60 or 70 watts, and most of the time I'm around 50 watts. But I've been building more dual coil builds lately, which require higher wattages.
The problem is that I'm getting "weak battery" warnings on freshly-charged LG HG2 batteries when fired at 90+ watts, and the output wattage gets reduced while firing to compensate. When the batteries get to around 75%, the weak battery warnings start showing up even on builds around 75 - 80 watts, with the same reduction in actual output wattage, down to 60 - 65 watts.
The reduced power from the weak battery warnings is preventing me from enjoying my dual twisted and dual Clapton builds, since they all are very thirsty for power and vape poorly at the wattages I am forced to vape them at due to the weak battery warnings.
I have four LG HG2 batteries, all bought in February 2016 (just a tiny bit over a year). They have been paired and used only in my Cuboid. I used them pretty heavily, since I make my own juice at 1 - 1.5 mg/mL, and end up vaping around 15 - 20 mL a day. When they were new, vaping at 120+ watts was fine, and I could still vape at 100 watts with the batteries half drained.
It's probably time for new batteries, but in the past, my batteries have degraded by having their capacity reduced (what used to last a full day would gradually progress to lasting just 2/3 - 3/4 day. But capacities on these four LG HG2's haven't seen to be affected. A full charge lasted 3/4 - 1 full day when they were new, and they still last 3/4 - 1 full day now.
So I'm not sure if new batteries will fix the issue. Has anyone else experienced battery degradation like I described?
