I have two recurve v2s on the way, hopefully arriving today.

After trying the review sample, I ordered two also. However, mine isn't even out of China yet due to the holiday.

I hope mine doesn't have the defect you mentioned.

Best way to charge. Problem is there's not many chargers around that does low amperes anymore. The charging world is speeding up, and that's good business for them...not so much for us

Yup my Xstar is fast charge but as you add additional batteries the charging amp gets divided so the best thing to do is put four in at the same time.

Why does this read like Japanese to me? (not intended to hurt any persons feelings that might be Japanese)

And this too. OK, I am out of touch

Haha sorry!
Ange had mentioned that she has started charging her new Molicel p26a batteries at a slower rate of 1 Amp compared to her old preferred rate of 2 Amps.
Slower charging is said to extend the life of Lithium Ion batteries by allowing more charge cycles over time.

Sounds a good idea to me. I'd love to get a battery tester that actually measures the internal resistance. Something like this:
Universal LCD Battery Tester with Probes - Mr Positive NZ

My current scientific method:
Is Battery A more crappy or less crappy than Battery B

Don't tell me about probes

I'm sure it won't. I asked Mike Vapes about his samples and his were fine. A lot of times review samples are pre production and can have little things wrong.

And adding to @Pigs explanation, the size of that battery's mah also determines how it takes to charge. If you recharging with a fully flat battery that is, if it's above 3.2v it will take less time.

Charging a Samsung 30q 3000mah battery at 2 amp takes an hour and a half from empty to full. Charging the same 3000mah battery at 1 amp will take 3 hours.

A Molical p26a 2600mah at 1 amp takes just over 2 and a half hours (2.6 hours)

A Samsung 20s 2000mah battery at 1 amp takes 2 hours.

And a Samsung 40t 4000mah battery at 1 amp takes four hours. Which is why I charge my 21700s at 2 amp! - it takes only 2 hours.

Seems my Delro has been rejected by security in China....two weeks ago just when FT went on holiday. According to the FT lady they are 'more stict' lately.
Here I was thinking there's only a glitch in the tracking...and that's its almost here
Now they have to resend it...via Post NL this time.

So are you saying you run your batteries down to empty (3.2V?) in your devices before you re-charge?

That sucks Fred. I wonder what basis it was rejected on?

The review sample I got had the outer cap loose. Wotofo said they’d send a replacement to me before I did the review.

I wonder if most or all of the 1st versions have the same issue. I’ll let you know when I get mine.

Since my freemax maxis Max is still bouncing between Miami and Opa locka every few days I decided to purchase some other stuff. And it's not exactly a shiny but there's a reason why whenever I can I purchase stuff through Kanger wholesale or light fire distribution and it's not just because they're a few hours down the way from me so my packages usually just get here pretty quickly but it's also because almost every purchase I make they do something like this... I didn't get charged for this It's like a smok purse... And while it's not like my favorite brand It's actually pretty good quality and it was just sent to me as part of my order that I did not pay for it's just like here thanks for being a customer. It's really cool it just makes you feel valued. It could absolutely hold some spare batteries juice some coils and a couple mods

If the one I got was pre-production then it's most likely that yours is a production model and will be fine. If it's not, please let me know.

I am cleaning the two I got right now. Happy to report everything fits properly. I look forward to hearing everyone's thoughts on the single coil they included in the box. It's humongous! It's gotta be at least 5mm id. I'm going to wrap my own and try it dual coil first.

thanks! I’ll definitely let you know. I’m eager to check it out. You know how much I love the original single coil Recurve so I’ve got high hopes for this version. I mentioned previously how disappointed I was with the Dual Recurve. Was expecting big clouds and saturated vape.

I don’t think I’ve ever seen a coil with an ID that big! I’ve got some Clapton wire I can use. Post a pic when you test it out. I want to see what it looks like in the deck. Thanks

Good luck with that. I had a Sourcemore purchase take almost 2 months to get to me in Boston!

I will.. I am excited to try it. The first version recurve dual is my favorite rda.
