You guys are simply brimming over with awesomeness.

:)

I'm using brand new AW batteries and a brand new Xtar charger labeled for 16350s and 18350s. I'm charging only till the light turns from red to green, which seems to be somewhere between 2 and 3 hours. I've tried charging each battery seperately and both together, and the results are about the same.

I'm using Highbrow juices at 80PG/20VG and Vapor Room juices at 75/25. My cartos are 2.0 ohm Single Coils, and I'd say I'm vaping between 3 and 4mls per day on average.

So these stupid things should be lasting more than two hours, right????

I've noticed that sometimes new IMR batteries seem to have ridiculously short lives until they've cycled through a few times, then it gets better. If they're new batteries, I'd keep running them for a few more cycles and see if it gets any better. Hopefully that's the issue.

This is SOooo very TRUE:thumbs: I had completely forgotten about this since I haven't bought a battery in about a year:facepalm:

Any suggestions or better yet pictures for tanks or other items to top a black full size with brass end caps? Having a hard time finding anything besides all black that goes with brass. Need some inspiration :)

How about these? https://www.ibtanked.com/shop-tanks/motley-tubes/black-gold-detail

with maybe some of these end caps: https://www.ibtanked.com/caps/caps-tiger-eyes-detail

They also have larger tanks that hold over 4mls and are the same diameter as the endcaps, nice seamless look.

I just remembered these, bit more costly but "wood" look so cool and manly too
Phiniac Phineers - Phiniac Rugged Pyrex Glass Tanks
darn looks like all those Phins are sold out but there is one in the classies

i just wanted to share about the IBTanked larger tank. I got it a week ago and they are the same size physically as the coloured tanks from phiniac. The walls are nice and thick but not as thick as the phiniac or the end caps dont take up as much space, cause this thing holds 5ml + what your carto holds and is the same diameter as the Saber touch. I will post a pict as soon as I take some.
