my new battery charger arrived, miboxer c4-12a....now to see how fast it charges :lol::pervy:
ug I am killing my batteries lately
usually my 2 bay charger (I've no idea of the brand, bought it from ft yearssss ago) will finish charging a set just as the set I'm using dies or within 30 minutes or so....but lately :glare:
all 8 of my good batteries are dead, 2 of my 2100's are dead and 4 of my old 18650s are dead, about to eat through 2 more old ones and another 2100
so yeah right now I've got 10 batteries charging and 5 waiting to charge :nah: I'm on my last set of 18650s so these suckers all better hurry up :lol: I still got 2 2100 and what's the other 2, 2700 or whatevers that I can throw in my topside while waiting to use my legend....but I will kill single batteries in a heartbeat

    Have you been vaping more than normal? I know I have been.

    meh...I mean yeah but :p not more than I have this year which is pretty much nonstop :lol:
    pretty sure my charger is crap now, it is several years old and used all day every day
    either that or my batteries need replaced again but they shouldn’t yet.

    Wouldn’t hurt to get another new 4 bay charger.

    Yeah, they probably sent out a whole bunch of them.
    I doubt that. They probably only sent them out to the most influential reviewers. When are you going to start up your YouTube channel? You can call it "Hitting it with Hittman."

    :lol: Hopefully I won’t need it
    The other 4 bay I have is crap:nah:
    it’s rare that I go through 3 sets of batteries... don’t know what the heck the last few days but I’ve eaten through almost all my batteries :eek:
    Guess it was good to rotate through them all :lol:
    I just charged my old ones not too long ago so thankfully they weren’t dead from sitting for so long but they also don’t last very long, I keep them for backups like now or I had a potable phone charger that used 3 18650s, need to get another one

    Well, they sure as heck don't send them out to all and sundry.

    I think it's pretty nifty and a nice gesture of appreciation for all the work you put in to your reviews. I'd be tickled in your shoes.

    What's happened to Anna?
    Under her avatar it says "moved on"?
    Hope she is ok. @FranC


    Usually if someone has - "MOVED ON" - they have really broken ECF rules - No penalty box / Time outs - they are no longer an ECF member . . . :admin:

    Well that was fast, then again they were already partially charged but ... 2 hours and 4 batteries charged, swapped them out and put 4 more in the new charger...2 were about 1/2 charged 2 were dead...we’ll say an hour but I think it’s really only been 30 minutes +/- and the 2 that were half charged are at 95% now

    granted I am using the 3a setting
    but wow
    after all the batteries charge I’ll bump it down to .5a or 1a for future charges...just really wanted/needed them to get charged quickly :p
