[wetclay]

Hi guys...
how long will a kr808d-1 last before it dies on average...2 months? more? Or how many charg cycles should I expect?
good to know this so that I can plan on my next battery purchase

happy vapin all

Per Battery University, typical lithium battery lasts 300 - 500 charge cycles. So, if you need to recharge once/day, that would indicate up to a year of lifetime; for me I like to think of them as 1/2 year of use, for planning purposes. How to prolong lithium-based batteries

This is pretty consistent with the lithiums I've gotten in cell phones.

I've got manual kr8s from V4L that are going on 7 months now. I do notice that their lifespans are shortening, and one is developing a firing problem (occasionally it doesn't want to) but they're still working. According to everything I've read, the Li-Ions are supposed to average between 300 and 500 charges.

thanks guys
I got my auto kr808 from V4L also
6-12 months is pretty good... was expecting less

The original 4 batts I got for the Kr808 are over 3 months old and they still perform great. I have another I got second hand which is even older, and it still works well too.

I have never had a battery die, in fact.

Good question. Glad you asked I also have the KR808 that's a question I didn't think to ask.

Just as an add-on question,
I just want to try a 510 now. And I want to do it without having to buy a J510 set. At least untill I try it.
So I'll get a 901-510 adaptor and use 510 carto (standard, LR, mega) with my kr808.
Do you think this will affect my batt. life? Any issues I should expect?
This won't my everyday vape... just to try a 510 system and LR 510

Oh maybe I should post this in a separate thread

I have 4 kr808d-1 batteries since the beginning about 9 weeks ago. They are still going strong. I have since purchased a usb pass through to give them a break when at the computer.
