Riva battery question

[Hittman1914]

Ok i got a question. I have a Riva 510 Deluxe kit from Liberty Flight. Neither batteries last very long, I charge them off my computer because I figured it was a slower charge.  I charged both when I first got them. Am I doing anything wrong ?

Just use the charger that came with your kit. It's safe for the Riva. I wouldn't charge from your computer USB because some people have reported that messing up their computer.

how long are they lasting? How much are you using them?

 

[throatkick]

What cartomizer/atomizer are you using?

Its not lasting but a few seconds. I use them all day till it dies, And no worries Liberty Flight is sending me a new battery

Use the slow charger. Also get a multimeter, it will tell you more about what is going on. Just be careful not to short out the terminals when checking a battery voltage.

Don't run batteries down until they are dead, even protected ones benefit from not being taken down to the minimum.

When you get your New Battery from LF I would suggest you use the Wall Charger instead of the USB Port on your computer.

USB Ports have been know sometimes to not supply enough Power to the Charger.

Also, if something goes bad in your charger/battery, better to blow a fuse in your house verses blow a USB Port in your computer.
