Is it bad if a mod doesn't discharge batteries evenly? I have noticed (this started towards the end of last week), that the Laisimo L1 uses one battery much more than the other. The battery that goes in the right discharges much faster than the battery that goes in the left. I just put the batteries on the charger and the one on the right measures as 3.13 volts while the battery on the left measures at 3.33 volts. And these batteries have been married since I got them brand new a couple of weeks ago. The second set of married batteries that I use for the L1 does the same thing. All 4 batteries are from the batch of 8 that I purchased new from Orbtronics, so I doubt that it is an issue with the batteries. For the first week to week and a half, they discharged pretty evenly (the difference was only about 0.01-0.02 volts) but starting around Wednesday or Thursday last week I started seeing the large difference every time I put the pair on the charger.
Yes, this is bad.....if they stay within .1 or .2 volts it will be ok...just rotate the slots the batteries go in to even out the wear......if it goes beyond that, one battery is going to be pulling more amps then the other, which can become dangerous at higher wattage

Sent with one hand, the other is busy vaping ;)

Then I guess it's a good thing that I am not really taxing the batteries by vaping at 100+ watts.

My lil sister is coming over to see me! She should be here any minute! Now that deserves a YAY!!!

YAY! :D

And here's another reason to YAY! Rich just ordered me a REAL mattress! Can I get a YAY! I was happy with the air mattress, but for the fact that it won't hold air overnight anymore, and I'm tired of waking up on the bottom board. None of the newer air mattresses were thin enough to fit my sheets on - they were all 18" to 22" tall (my sheets fit a 15" max depth), so it would have been a double pain to try to keep sheets on them, AND they're not cheap. So anyway, I found a memory foam mattress (NO AIR, just a memory foam mattress) in CA King size for $450 and Rich said I could get it. That's twice as much (a little more than twice, but what the heck) as the inflatables, but this one has a 10 year warranty on it, and I WILL NEVER HAVE TO PUMP AIR INTO IT, NOT EVEN ONE FREAKING TIME! Oh, I'm deliriously happy about THAT! To never wake up on the bottom board again... it's like a dream!

On the downside, I still don't have my purple Target, and when I asked the guy to tell me when it shipped, he never answered... I hope that doesn't mean something "bad..."
