I just got my Maxi Roughstack v2 from madvapes. I got a 18650 batt with charger. Should I charge the battery first?
This is my 1st mod and I've never used these types of batts before, happy vaping!:vapor:
I LOVE my little red candy apple RoughStack! It's so cute. Yes, charge first. I'm not sure about the charging the batteries overnight bit, that could be risky? I think I charged them for 3 or 4 hours or something the first time (until the charger light turned green). I have three batteries and swop them out as needed.
 
Update:
I've been vaping like crazy with my Maxi RS, I FREAKIN' LOVE THE BATTERY!!!!!!
18650 only for this guy...I've been using LR carts, LR 306 atty, and my ce3 smokyizer...
all firing on all cylinders!
I just ordered the battery extension and the mega dual coil cart from madvapes...
How long have you gone with using your 18650 before you had to recharge
man o man, I love this thing LOL!

Im going strait from ego vv bat to provari. The wife is getting me one for xmas. I already have a box of stuff waiting to run on it. Im very excited!

This is what I did. I had the Kgo (ego clone) and just got a provari with the 2500mAh 18650 batteries. I vape about the same rate as when I smoked cigs (roughly 1 PAD) and it lasted me 3 full days at 4-4.2Volts on LR Boge cartos. You'll love it.

update (2) battery
From 7pm yesterday to 10am today the 18650 died. Popped it in the charger and its still not fully charged (10am PST) till now 5:30pm. I was vaping like crazy...well how long does it charge for? Its been red forever!
I don't get your timing? How long has it been in the charger for? Do you only have one battery? Do you have one of those little cheap MadVapes single battery chargers?

oh yeah I got a 900mah ego battery as my backup. But still 9 hours!? Isn't that a bit odd? Especially when the battery lasted 15 hours? Do you have to break in new battery like this?
No it definitely shouldn't take 9 hours. Mine take 3-4. Maybe the little green light thing isn't working. And I agree with orkira, you need a backup battery. I prefer to have three batteries for each mod. I rotate 2, but if one fails I know I have that extra one. No way I can be without something to vape. Too risky for me. I have fallen off the wagon too many times (in my tobacco quitting quest) to take any chances ever again. Everytime I started smoking again was because of some lame excuse or another. This time I am making sure that there are NO excuses because I will not fail!
Since I have several mods, (apart from my other ecigs) my collection of special batteries and all their special chargers, (why must each mod have different batteries I wonder :confused:) is really growing at an alarming rate lol! I have a large space set aside lined with the stuff.

Take it OFF already! Nine hours is too long.
