Your battery will not hold as much of a charge and instead of being able to, say, vape 4 mls on a single charge it will reduce to, say, 2 mls. And the decline will happen relatively quick. But yes, these batteries should last us a good long time. Years would not surprise me...even if you have only two and rotate them. These AW batteries can be recharged hundreds of times. I've seen some data that says 300 times, and others that say as many as 1,000 times. My original AWs go back 2-1/2 years and I have not noticed any falloff.I've been using batteries for close to 2 years now and have been fortunate to never really witness degrading performance or poor IQ's. Not saying my batteries are super/better batteries, as I think I've given some away and transitioned from 18350 to 18490's more lately. Plus I have probably 10 18350's and currently 8 18490's in rotation.
My point in this post is to actually wonder/ask what to look for when one starts going bad? Just reduced performance? Has anyone witnessed a known "old" or aging battery in the P3 that truly won't show above 50? If so - cool and good to know!
I'm assuming these batteries should be as good as cell phone batteries that we use for years. Heck I'll bet some of you have iphones with foxed batteries that are mostly still kicking along for years while being used daily and not in rotation with others - right?
On another note - I've had my VP4 since Saturday (thanks to Amazon) and it is excellent!
