I have two sets of KR808D-1 batteries. One set is from Heavens Gifts and it works beautifully--almost like a real ciggy. The other one is from a trusted vendor too but recently, I am having difficulty taking a drag unless I really take a deep breath and inhale very hard. It wasn't this bad when I first got it and I only had it for about 3 months. Is there a way to fix it?

3 months of constant use of a batt is about how long they last before not charging fully anymore. Its the nature of the batt material. They have 200-300 "cycles" (used completely and recharged) before they do not charge to a full 3.7V anymore, and they steadily drop off in charging ability over time. Generally people get several extra batts for backup in situations like this. Also, not all batts are perfectly filled, and some have a shorter lifetime than others. this is not due to a "bad" vendor, as all the batts are made by Kanger.

Sounds like its time to get some backups!
