Hi Guys, just wanted to ask and hopefully sharing this experience with the rest of the members =D..i just recently purchased AW batteries from a local resellers here im MY..but when i enquired about the product, i did find a certain fact that shocked me. I as told that due to us Vapers are shocking the battery, we are mostly likely to loose the battery lifespan..could anyone care explaining this to me?

thanks in advance guys =D :vapor: :vapor: :D

bro terribly sorry but i didnt understand you post... care to rephrase it bro?

i was wondering if its true that using batteries on mechanical mods, will shorten the life span of the battery..as i was told that we are shorting the battery every time we engaged the connection with the battery when firing..

The AW logo has difference of size with fake and original battery. That's what i read online.

That wasnt his question, but while we are at this, i found out something weird just today. I was comparing two AW i bought from the same reputable online store in malaysia from two diff batch and they are diff sized... i only realized this while using a fixed tube size mech mod and realized one screws in well while the other leaves a tiny gap =(

Basically this shows the fake vs. ori batts.

Yeah, it's true from what I understand. Batteries aren't meant to last forever, I go through batteries like crazy on my mechanicals. Especially since I tend to chain vape and continually fire, since I use genny tanks on the mechs.

If you change your batts after the drop then you should be fine, and don't continually fire them they should be fine. Just remember batteries do have a lifespan.

Hi guys, thanks for all your awesome response..sorry that i had made a bubu on my part for not putting the exact topic =P thus making some of you confused =P..i do have a few queries tho..yes as some of you mentioned that the battery sticker size and also the sizing of the battery itself..hence i was thinking of trying my luck in ordering an orginial AW battery if i can find one willing to ship to malaysia to do a comparison..but also i think if its true that i am shocking my batt and killing the batteries life span and that batt itself, i might order el cheapo batts. But i think that alone wont solve the matter anyways..as i still need to go through batteries and batteries just to get the total vape experience..hehehehe..also being safe as well is my utmost importance..as i have seen first accounts of battery blow out while vaping..could cause some injuries..would love to avoid them if i could..=D

I dont think reputable sellers would want to endanger their customers life..and not to say so is the regular sellers..just that in difference of price range you get different specs ;) i think we should be more cautious ourself to be abit more responsible also for our own safety benefits..i mean if i were to buy a cheap battery, i would have at least sorta expected the cheap life span and also cheap quality..:2c:
