Thank you again everyone. It really does mean a lot. Snow sir, apparently that batt had more power than anyone knew. :)

Ms. SaturnineDenial, he was four months old, but really was 263 charges old... Mark sir, what I really want to replace him with is a red led on a black batt or a metal color (still looking for Vader and Emperor)... Krazie sir, thank you for the offer, but I have plenty of batts, just none as special.... A very fitting tribute Ms. Addy. :)

Just one question....... so many refer to these batteries as "he" or "him". Just exactly how does one determine the sex of the battery????

Actually, I've been naming mine recently. My black diamond shorty with the violet eye has been named Elizabeth, in honor of the lovely departed Ms. Taylor. She's a beauty. :)

A very fitting tribute Ms. Addy. :)

I'm glad you approve - I thought so.

My friends call me "Pandora". I have an odd total recall for song lyrics. Any odd word or phrase will instantly trigger total recall of every song lyric containing it. I've never been sure if it's a compliment or not.... ;)

It was taken as a complement Ms. Addy. :)

As for the sexes of the batt, I just go by color combos.... Black with green reminded me of Luke Skywalker, same with blue and black. They were both not true jedis for they had emotions.... My black and purple king diamonds are named after the two albums he released which were majority black and purple themed.... Only have one true female batt so far... My red on blue xl is called Ihriel after Ihsahn's wife because she has gorgeous blue eyes with red hair...

Just got home and was welcomed to a pleasant surprise, one of the auto shorties I ordered is black with a red led. Finally I have a Vader... :)

Never bought a shorty, how long does the charge last Morandir? I want to get one to better simulate an analog. How about a mini-review?

I love the shorty but also love the xl, etc., etc. :) They have the feel and balance of an analog but are noticeably heavier, of course. I ordered the stealth on a whim and see a HUGE difference between it and other bats of its size! I, too, would love to see a thread about battery types and loves and hates and color combos and names...all our regular goofiness :)

I get about an hour and a half of heavy vaping Maxwell sir off them... The biggest advantage is the draw... They are the closest to analog, even on the old style they're pretty close...

Ms. Kanza, that's gonna be a long list. :)

I need to get one then. So far I have reg and XL, manual and autos, but nothing hits better than my PT manual.

Manual standard Phistraveler sir. He was black, gold logo, blue led. Only a little over 3 months, but was 263 charges old... When I first got him I was charging him 3 times a day... He and his brother were from the same starter kit... His brother Luke died of button failure about a week or so before him.... I think it was a broken heart that did him in.... They were my most trusted batts, not like some of the unruly young ones running about playing ding dong ditch at the neighbors house... No, they were exceptional young gentleman... Now they are one with the force....
