I've only been using my V2 at the house in the evenings due to the HUGE plumes of vapor it produces but, I went three night on a seasoned set of batts. That's at least 8 or 9 hours. Maybe the resting let them restabilize. And, I pulled them and threw them in the charger way before they were empty.
From dealing with $400 lipos I've learned not to try and totally exhaust them.
They seem to last longer and produce a steadier voltage for longer periods.

*Just my experience*

outta habit I've always done the first few go arounds full charge to full empty and I just happened to measure the voltage on mine at both states, I had 3.5v at full charge roughly 20 mins after pulling off the charger and 2.6v at full depletion when it stopped making any vapor in my V2.

NOT good batteries T-Hef ... we tested them and got roughly have the life span of the 750mAh, not to mention, they would die within an hour of use. Stick with the LifePo4's by Tenergy.
