Time to buy a new pair, or is there a fix?

sigelei 30W Mini!!! I WIN!

I still have a couple sigelei 30W Mini's. Threads are fine and best part, they still work.

Ooops. Sorry. Wrong thread.

No worries, you're just a couple threads shy of a full 510.

And I'll see your "Ooops" and raise you one "Oops Wrong Planet".

There are infinitesimal differences between any two batteries even of the same lot and stored the same, from the beginning. They're so small they often won't show up at first, but they'll affect how the batteries age. After a year of use, even if you take great care that they're treated the same, the differences will usually be amplified to the point you can see or detect them. It's normal aging.

There's no way to fix the difference, but if it's not too big there's no real need to either. A fifteen minute difference in charging time isn't necessarily a serious problem, though I'd rather know the voltage of each battery when they're discharged. If it's something like 0.05 volts a decent mod won't have any trouble balancing them. It is a sign of aging and the discrepancy will continue to increase over time. After a while, or if the difference now is too big, it might be better to split the pair for use in single battery mods and get new ones for dual battery use.

Thank you very much genuinely - you have lightened my darkness and I do mean than and in no way am I extracting the urine. Thanks again!

Read Mooch's responses in this thread. Might be useful to you...or not. I just came across it and thought it might be.

BTW: If you do ever get an Aegis Solo or Max, I suggest lubing the threads of the battery cap with some very light, non-sticky lubricant because too many people have reported stripping the threads. Could be user error. I dunno.

I second this! The threads on my aegis solo stripped on the mod part. I did use mine since 2019 though. It was the only mod I was using. The batteries were constantly being taken out to charge, once to twice every day. I should have taken that oring off and it would have made twisting the battery cap on so much easier with zero resistance. It would kind of push against as I twisted the cap on. I was lost without it! Lol Then... thanks to [mention]UncleJunkle [/mention] recommending me to buy the innokin kroma r I am very happy!

As one famous man reportedly said on a significant occasion, "Duh!"

I recharged both batteries to full, and vaped the thing for two days and it behave immaculately til I took the batteries out to recharge them this morning.

Dunno why it appeared to go wrong and dunno why it's now behaving itself again ... looks like it'll remain one of life's mysteries.

The pic shows it at the half way mark; it's a dull morning and my phone wouldn't focus on the Aegis' screen before I took the batteries out just now as it thinks it's too bright.

Thanks to all who helped.
