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.
I guess you both have more advanced battery chargers than me then. I am not able to choose how to charge (1 amp, 2 amp) I just pop mine in the charger and they charge

    Anyone else miss the good ol' days before smartphones?
    There was no excuse for your girlfriend,boyfriend,wife,husband,friends or family members to just plain ignore you by staring down at the screen of their smartphone.

    If you miss those days do not look any further,I present you the Wizman Mini BEEPER:

    I have no idea if it vapes well but i want one.
    These guys are the same ones that came up with the gameboy vaping device :lol::lol:

    I almost bought one of those gameboy mods. Just for nostalgia. Kind of like the innokin 134 I bought and never used. Just thought it looked cool.

    I use a little Golisi i1 these days. I bought a couple a few years back for taking on the road - they come in a little carry pouch and are tiny. They charge 18350 up to 21700 and you can vary the charge rate or display (mAh or Voltage) with one button.

    These days I rarely use dual battery mods so the single bay is enough for me.

    This one:

    I ordered a battery tester during the insomnia hours this morning. Hopefully it will give me a more accurate idea of which of my older 18650s need to be benched.

    But I mainly bought it because I'm a geek. And I love geeky toys.

    Best battery charger I ever used. Tests the condition of your batteries and adjustable amp rate.

    Good afternoon Shiny's
    I always end up going back to LUC chargers; I get to choose my charge rate (0.5) and love their simplicity.
    Just ordered 2 nitrous rdas directly from damnvape; we'll see how it goes shipping wise. They have reasonable prices and shipping cost.

    So this is looking just great lol anyone have any idea if that's actually processing back to China. Or if it's going through customs again for some reason. This is the package that was bouncing between two different distribution centers that are pretty much next door to one another for a week The freemax maxity Max that I am no longer thinking I'm getting lol. Just in case anyone's unfamiliar it arrived in Miami a couple weeks ago made it all the way up to the distribution center that's closest to me after going through customs and then was sent back and has been bouncing between two distribution centers. So this would definitely be the second time it's gone through customs if that is indeed what it's doing rather than being shipped back to China. I can't get any answer on what it's doing and my local post office that I ask if they could please grab it and direct it towards me has not responded since they told me yes we got your request and we're happy to help lol

    I think a few others are having the same issue over in the vape mail ban thread. What is very odd, is that your package made it to Opa Locka, completely out of customs.

    Yup! Until I got efest luc v4 HD elite I was always looking for newer and better chargers.

    I know the Miboxer c4-12A is the bees knees when it comes to charging, and displaying info like the internal resistance, capacity etc but it's too pricey for me
    $42.91 MIBOXER C4-12A 4-slot Intelligent Battery Charger - LCD display / 3A/1A output / Li-ion/Ni-MH/Ni-Cd battery compatible / US at FastTech - Free Shipping

    I have a Miboxer C4-12 v2. It is a really nice charger. Bought it back in August 2019 and it's still working fine. It has a lot of features. You can set the battery charge rate per bay.
