I was wondering lf Completely draining the batteries before charging will make a Difference? also I know how to tell when my battery goes into cleaning mode but how long does it blink for when I hit it too, VS when the battery dies
I think the little batteries in e-cig's are so overworked that any attempt at trying to make them last longer is a waste of time. External Power, Troggs ScrewDriver are the only way forward. I think it was Trogg who said that the batteries are never allowed to drop below a certain voltage (either 2.7v or 2.4V if I remember correctly - Trogg will put me right if I'm wrong.) That suggests to me LiPo batteries as they are the only batteries I am aware of that must not be fully discharged, and would also explain why they cost so much.
Apparently you can sometimes remedy that by pushing a paperclip through the opening and trying to hit the switch. Either that, or a short, sharp tap on a counter might do it.
What is this screwdriver in which you speak? =)
