Tired of changing 510 batteries

[snxmstr]

I need a long life battery for my 510. I seem to be changing and charging every couple of hours when I'm at home. What do you recommend?

That's why I switched to eGo's. Its still a 510, but has longer battery life. They last about 6-8 hours for me. There's a really good sale on a two eGo set right now. I bought a set just to have spares. (I'm funny about having plenty of spares, so you'll probably be happy with two.)

You can get 510 XL (mega) bats.
The eGo bat. works but takes about 6 hrs to charge w/ 510 charger.

The one answer you will get is mod or ego .I went ego and its so much better than the 510 that 7 510 batteries will rot in a drawer now .Never had a mod yet but people who do love them more that a tenth grader loves car keys.

Yes, the eGo takes a long time to charge on a regular charger, but if you use a fast charger it only takes an hour or two. The kit I linked to above comes with a fast charger or you can get a fast charger from Cignot for about $8.00.

What a great line!

See that little green box mod in my avatar? That! Cheap, lasts all day (I'm a moderate vaper), and it has a on/off switch so you can drop it in a pocket and go and not worry about it being accidentally turned on. I see them in the classifieds here often, or places like Madvapes has them for about $24. Or, build your own...there's a tutorial around here somewhere to build a "Nico Stick".

You are too kind. off topic a touch, on the ego charger some say the puter could hurt the battery so I tried the usb to wall charger that it comes with in the kit and it did take longer to charge.I dont care too much if it eats a battery so will just charge the usb way.Not really into tech battery stuff so don't even know if the usb really would hurt a battery, but if time is of the essence the usb if the way to go.

My concern with the USB thing hasn't been cooking a battery, but cooking my computer. I read here somewhere about a USB plug that somehow screwed up someone's computer. (Might have been a passthrough, it's a vague memory.) Anyway, after that I quit putting any of my battery stuff in my USB port and only use an AC adapter.

I use the USB>AC plug that's come with some of my eGo kits and they charge really fast. I've not timed it, but it's not six hours. I usually have three eGo's on chargers and a couple already charged at any given time and just rotate through them as one dies.

Like I said above, I like to have plenty of spares.

Thanks! Just ordered the eGo. Hoping it gets here soon!
