Revenger X charge method an clock questions

[Ladiekali]

First... so when you take the batteries out of the mod to charge them... it resets the clock. so you have to frickin adjust the clock every time you put in batteries.
i would have thought the clock worked on it's own separate battery...

So my question is this... in order to not reset the clock every day.. is it safe to charge via usb port? the instructions say you can.. but i know a few months ago it was said that you always charge batteries on a charger. Or is that just certain devices?

I'm a bit confused on if the company that makes the mod says in the instructions you can charge the mod via usb... does that mean its safe to do??

also, the puff counter doesn't reset, so why does the clock?? i don't get this.

If a MOD of mine has built in charging I use it and I have no concerns with using it. Even with 2 4 bay chargers I run out of slots so I will need to use the built in charging and if I am on vacation I do not normally bring a charger. Many will argue and give multiple reasons for their opinions but many of those opinions are not based on personal experience. Although I don't own the MOD you are talking about it is on my wish list! Good Luck.

well just remember, you have to set the clock when changing batteries!!!
i am truly stumped because the puff counter doesn't reset.

Also with light use, i have scratches on my screen. Bugs me as my mod is pretty new and other than being in my back pocket or hoody pocket it is in a stand. the good is the scratches aren't any more noticable than the finger prints. if you have a tablet, you know after so long you stop wiping the damn thing and don't see the finger prints any more.

Having to reset the clock would be a good reason I would only charge with the internal charger! Do you have a second set of batteries for the MOD? The Puff counter on my Alien doesn't reset with a quick swap but it has reset when I left no batteries in it for a few days. That annoyed me so I swap batteries quickly when I charge them in a charger.

 

[SteveS45]

Even with a MOD I use the Internal Charger I swap the batteries out to keep them all with the same amount of cycles or as close as I can.

 

[Ladiekali]

and if any one knows where to direct me to go for a firmware update. that would be awesome.
the instructions that came with my mod did not include English!

The puff counter probably is stored in ram that doesn't use a battery. The clock would need electricity.

You should be able to charge in the mod.

ok i can do that, i do have more married batteries. just sometimes, I have children and animals... i get caught in the middle of something.

Did you check the manufactures support?

I personally don't see what benefit a clock in a mod brings to the table. Most of the clocks in them are not very accurate and every cell phone on the planet has a more accurate network time if you really need to know what time it is.

 

[SteveS45]

A clock in a MOD is great for when you are on a smoke break but vaping.

 

[Ladiekali]

yeah carrying my mod and my phone just for the clock is a pain. i take my dogs for walks in the morning and i need to keep up with how long we are out there. I also like that it stays lit so i can glance at the clock when i need to know what time it is without pulling out the phone

 

[SteveS45]

I can think of many great ways to use it like when I am BBQing on the back patio and can time the meat.

 

[Ladiekali]

ooh, finding your mod in the dark! like car trips.. bedroom.. etc

 

[SteveS45]

It never shuts off? No adjustment for clock display time?

I insert a fresh set of batteries every time I remove the old set for charging. Good to have spare sets of batteries anyway. The Revenger supposedly has OK balance charging, but from the one or two times I've charged through the USB I seem to remember that the mod got a bit warmer than I'm fully comfortable with. And remember that if you screw up the USB by charging you won't be able to upgrade /reinstall the firmware if you need to.

I have the original Revenger, not the X.

i have it set to not go off for 30 mins.
I've been vaping for years, but i've only been smoke free for 7 days.
I've been making sure to vape more often. I think in the past i'd wait too long.

Swap them out at noontime? 12:00 ( blink, blink, blink)

You can charge via USB, it does have some disadvantages (potentially). I know folks who want to charge internally some of them have magnet systems that just hook to the port, likely reducing wear and tear, so that might be an option (not sure how expensive those systems are). With that said, I'd be more likely to be irritated by having to wait for the USB charge to happen (I will not USB charge overnight, or charge at all overnight) but if that's less annoying than resetting the clock, you can, but I'd get all your firmware they way you like it (if there are updates) before starting USB charging exclusively.... and there is the chance of getting unbalanced batteries, especially if you never rotate them. I would probably just reset the clock, personally.

I WANT a mod with a clock, quite a bit. First, it's one less thing to carry if I am vaping outside or somewhere away from my phone (which otherwise, I have to bring it with me). I also just think it's a cool concept, really, in general. Oh, I'd love to wear a watch, but I break them somehow (or they die... rapidly) or I lose them. But there are often times I am vaping without access to a clock and having to bring my phone with me, and sometimes even if it's for short periods of time (say I am cooking, but venture outside for a bit) I'd LOVE to have a clock. I see its usefulness for me and for many others. I'm just worried about scratching one up if I tip it over.

But, someday, I will have a mod with a clock on it and be very happy about it indeed.
