Well, not mine, but my husbands. He took it to work with him last night and it lasted completely through his shift, almost 9 hours! From reading on here, and from experience with the njoy, I had him packed with 3 extras,lol! And have more ordered.

I've read that the Joye 510 only last 2-4 hours, maybe his is a fluke?

Mine lasted about 4 hours before I felt like it was slowing down, but I think I could have "made do" a little longer.

Does it depend on how often you vape? Like 10 minutes, once an hour versus on and off all day?

stillsmok9, by continuos vaping, do you literally mean "continuous?" All day long hitting your PV?

I don't think I could do that. I vape like I smoke, for about 10 minutes every hour or so...
I wonder though, if its enough nicotine? 50+ times an hour seems like a lot to me. I would never "smoke" like that, how many cigarettes would that come out to,lol?

I'm using 24mg from RMV.

I meant vaping at a pace that doesn't overheat the atty. If you chainvape with a 510 it will burn your atty out if you do not let it cool down for a few minutes between every 2-3 drags.

Yeah, I noticed that the atty heats up if I hit it a lot real quickly.

Now, my battery is only lasting around 4 hours, my husband's is the one that is lasting over 8 hours. He took it again last night and it again lasted the shift. He said he didn't notice any loss of performance until the light started blinking.

I can't really tell on mine, because I am experimenting so much where its so new to me. I haven't stopped smoking analogs completely either. I plan to as soon as my shipment of "juice" comes in. Right now we only have one 10ml bottle and I want to make sure hubby has enough for work since he can't smoke analogs and that's all he can do there.

I can't wait to get my other stuff and switch completely! Analogs seem so nasty compare to my 510! I've ordered some batteries, a PCC, and some other things. At this rate, do you think 3 batteries each and a PCC each will do us full time?

Mine last all day without needing a recharge at work. I start the day off making sure all 3 batteries are fully charged and the PCC just in case. I have a few vapes on the way to work and then maybe one puff every two hours while there. On the way home there's more vaping to put the day behind me. I realized last night that it's more of pacifier for comfort than an actual addiction now.

When I'm home and vaping - about 2 hours max for the batteries.

I just got email confirmations from USPS that my 901 and 501 were shipped this morning - I'm a happy camper. And will report my first vape experiance to you guys. I'm still trying to track down the most potent Menthol juice and wondering about battery issues.

It seems most of you like the manual better, maybe I'm dead wrong but I've been thinking less is more. No button to press, one less thing to do to enjoy your smoke...er...vape (he slowly gets it) So if I understand this, on the manual battery the button has be held down during the entire draw, and released when you exhale?

Seems a shame you can't just click it on and off..eeeh but what do I know?

Yes, you hold it down the whole time.

A manual is usually preferred because there is no cut-off. You can take as big or as little of a drag as you want. Also, there is no worries about external sounds activating the battery, as can happen on some automatics.

I thought I would hate having to push a button too, but it's so natural after the first day with it. Much easier to get used to than it was to get used to the primer puff then draw that you really have to do with the autos. I actually have more trouble remembering to stop pushing the button :). It's also nice to be able to control the heat of the vapor more.

I chain vape with the 510 without waiting at all between drags. All my atty's have kept working for over a month. I did read that the fiber wicking in/under the bridge can be damaged or burned out, which causes the vapor to burn. I like the burn.

Maybe you have some experience with burning out the fibers in the atty?
