Rookie question

[Ren76]

It's easy to check out at home with a DMM or the charger but when I'm out how do I know when to swap batteries?
When my vapor/throat hit die off?
That's what I did today.
If this belongs in the battery/charger section, sorry.
Any advice is appreciated.

I usually swap out my batteries when the vape falls off and I am not getting the satisfaction my brain wants from the nicotine. If it doesn't seem right, its time to swap batteries.

You got it Ren. As you get more experience with the setup you're using, you will get better at estimating battery voltage from the way it's vaping. I can usually tell when my batts get to around 3.6V which is the lowest I like to go. OTOH, with new coils installed I have a couple of times vaped them down to 2.7V without realizing it. After a couple of years of vaping mech mods, that doesn't happen to me any more.

Well do as most do and swap when vape drops off.. Me I run a kick in my mod. Batt volts get to 3.2, it stops firing, also vapor drops big time below 3.5. So I know when I start getting weak hits to swap the batt.
