Your wall adapter doesnt stop sending power. It is the chip in the device that stops accepting it. That is what people are referring to. If the charging circuit in the device goes bad, it may stop charging altogether(not really too terrible of a thing), or it may overcharge the batteries until the vent(this one is pretty bad).

When you have a mod, you have a cheap item that was primarily made to take an imput power, adjust it to the proper output voltage, and feed that to a certain connector. The charging of a battery is a secondary function. It is often accomplished by means of using a very cheap charging circuit. When you have a dedicated charger, it was designed with one function in mind: to charge batteries. Therefore, they typically put a MUCH better charging circuit in something specifically made for charging batteries. This is why people recommend using the external dedicated charger.

yeah i get that :) not great at typing english..
I am going to buy a charger (not a wall charger) but a dedicated battery charger, that cuts of charging when done. And then i'm going to stay below 60W using my VTC mini with the battery LG HG2 and make sure the battery newer empties out. Isn't that the proper "rules" to follow for a vaping noob like me? :)

Yes and Yes.

I would recommend Nitecore or Xtar, I prefer Xtar VC4.

Couldn't I just use a proper charger that cuts of the charging automaticly when done - And when I vape keep an eye on the display of the VTC mini too make sure i'm not low on power AND that I am vaping below 60W?

Yes. If the Mini is showing a low battery, pop the battery out, stick it in the charger, leave it until it's fully charged and reuse.

Sorry, I just need some strict basic guidelines to follow... not formulas and other complex stuff :) Just some rules that I can use with my exact setup. I'm not ever gonna change it. I kind of refuse to buy a meter and control-test all the time, too much work during the day, then I rather be smoking cigarettes again ;)

That's it. One decent battery like you already have, a decent but affordable charger, and vape away on your 0.5 ohm at ~50W. Even better, have 2 batteries. that way you can always swap in a fresh battery when one runs down so you don't have to stop and wait.
