My Sig 100W drains down to 3.2 volts (per battery) when it shows 0%.

I don't like draining them that low, so I change mine at between 40-50% left which is around 3.6 to 3.7 volts.

I checked and the 150w has the same low voltage cut off at 6.4 volts.

I have one and its amazing, but zero% doesnt mean zero volts its just dropped 3.2v p/ battery the minimum usable amount. However you get the low battery warning depending on the wattage youre vaping at. When I have around 90 watts it shows up around 15-20%. I generally change my batteries when it hits around 35% jist for the sake of the batteries longevity.

Hmm strange when Im above 130watts it wont fire for me below 25%. It fires for 2 seconds then gives low voltage warning. Mines def not a clone either, registered with authentic serial #@asmodus

Ive said this several times today, but Ive got a God Mod 180, and IPV3, and a Sigelei and the Sigelei 150 is easily my favorite. Very practical, easy to use, durable (with the free silicone case), and works quite well at preserving battery life and consistent voltage. The magnet back cover I petition should be a requirement on every box mod in the future (instead of the annoying as hell IPV3 screw cover), and the spring loaded pin and 510 connection ensures youll have both good contact with your atty and that the threads wont strip. Would absolutely recommend it

17% is the lowest I let mine go down to. Put them on the charger and took a different unit that was all charged up out of the house with me. Guess you can say you charge them accordingly to how long you need it to vape when you head out the door. I like mine fully charged every night as I never know what I am doing tomorrow. CHEERS!

The chip is designed to cut firing an atomizer at certain wattage if there isn't enough battery to continue to fire the atomizer for the full 10 seconds. The mod also won't allow draining the batteries to a point that damages the cell so you can vape them until it reads 0% battery should your build allow it. Remember to number your batteries and when you have to charge them rotate their position within the mod next installation it helps to maintain the batteries better because the battery on the left is the primary and does get taxed more than the one facing the bottom of the mod in the right side bay. Hope this helps, and yes I own it I vape it and I love it Sigelei 150 watt is my favorite mod. :)

OK, I understand why you would prefer the magnetic back cover on the Sigelei 150 since you have to remove the battery to recharge them, but why would you want it on the IPV3 which can be charged via USB? You're only going to open it once a year or less to replace the batteries when they stop accepting a charge, not every day like you would the Sigelei. I haven't opened my USB charging box mod in over a year. In fact the only time it's had the back cover off was the day I got it and first installed the battery.


To the OP...

Your batteries will last longer of you recharge them with around 25% of the charge left, but it's totally safe to run them until the mod says 0%.
