Is it bad to leave the Tornado batteries in the charger for like, 24 hours or more?

I've been doing that, and the last two days, after an 8 hour work shift, by the time I get home, my light is blinking. Is leaving them on the charger shortening the life of the batteries?

Strange thing is, it's only MY batteries doing it, hubby's are fine, even though he uses the same charger.

The only other thing I can think of is that I vape heavy, but I'd think it would still last longer than 10 hours.:confused:

They shouldn't get damaged from remaining in the charger; specs say, they won't. But of course things can break, and then they might. It's not much of a risk, though.

And 10 hours are pretty good for an eGo, if I chain vape, they last me 6-8. Of course, people who vape very little use one battery for two days, but still, 10 hours isn't bad.

Thanks, Alex! I have a friend at work who chain vapes and his last like two days. But still, 10 hours is better than the 7 or so I could milk out of my KR808 batteries.

I'm sure hubby's last longer because he's a leisurely vaper, unlike me. I vape any and every where I can, lol.

Now, that does sound slightly odd indeed. 510 batteries have 180mAh for the short ones, and 280mAh for the Megas. AFAIK, the same goes for KR8s, except the extra-long ones which have 380mAh.
Now, an eGo has 650mAh, and for some reason it lasts longer than it should, for most people, when just comparing mAhs.

Which would make 10 hours versus 7 or so out of a KR8 somewhat short.

How long did a stock 510 battery last you?

I've never used the 510 till I got my Tornado. I talked to my coworker today, and he said in the beginning, his lasted 2 days or so, but not anymore, but he's still in love with his Tornado, as am I.

I was just curious and wanted to make sure I wasn't messing up my batteries by leaving them plugged into the charger for that long.
