New Vaper - Answers Not Found

Hi Kaitlyn, welcome to ECF. What a great post! And a well thought out purchase, I might add. You've been given some really good information. The only thing I'll add is this... if you don't care for the juices that are taunting you, set them aside for a little while (couple days to a week) and they'll probably taste different/better. It'll give them time to set up more.

Ok one more thing. I do sometimes put a small amount of liquid in my mini protank to test flavors. If I like it, great, add more. If not, I remove the base rinse it and start over.

Good luck!

They are still taunting for now. I can tell they need a little steep time and am doing my best to be patient. A couple smell amazing, though, so I will probably give in and try at least one today after work.

All our batteries are lithium, and lithium batteries are dangerous if they are not charged and discharged in the right way. Therefore all the chargers will only charge them until they are full and will then stop. Similarly all our devices will only allow them to discharge so far and will then refuse to turn on. So long as those devices work, it is perfectly safe to leave a battery in the charger. Because there is a tiny chance that the charger or the battery will develop a fault, there are warnings not to do so.

Lithium batteries do not discharge if you leave them for a while. However over time they loose capacity. The amount they loose depends on their state of charge and their temperature. In the worst case they can halve their capacity every year, and the effect is worst when they are full and hot -- like a laptop battery always is. (The best way to store them is at 40% charge and in the fridge, but that's not practical for most purposes.) Because lithium batteries can't be charged if they drop below a certain level, it's also not advisable to leave a battery uncharged. The tiny current leakage from the attached circuitry will eventually take it beyond recovery. ( I have no idea how long it would take; it may be months or years.)

And I already have another question. So I come home from work and decide to try a new flavor, load up a new tank, and throw it on the eGo. No go...and I thought it was the brand new battery that was not working. But then I think to swap batteries. The clearomizer I have been using since yesterday works on both the eGo-C Twist and the Vision Spinner. The new one I loaded this evening only works on the Spinner. Why? It almost feels like this clearomizer does not screw on the eGo as much as the other one does but I would rather not force it and break something. But they should all have the same threading and fit, right? Am I missing something?
