V4L Shorty batteries... how long on average before they need a recharge?

[DropbeatsNotBombs]

Just wanted to get a feel for peoples experience with the V4L Shorty batteries. I feel like I'm constantly charging them. At least 3-4 times a day total for both batteries. Are mine dying or do they just not last that long due to the size?

The V4L shorty batteries are 180 mah (milliamp hours). That's the same as the standard 510 battery. They do not last long on a charge at all, really. That is one of the frustrations of the minicig, or cigarette almost sized, batteries. There's just no way - yet- to put a lot of energy into a battery of that size. The standard V4L batteries are 280 mah, and the xl version are 380 mah. Each lasts longer, respectively, but is less and less cigarette sized - being longer, not wider.

Thanks for the reply. I kinda figured as much. At the same time I thought they'd last at least a few hours. Guess I can't have my cake and eat it too.

Do you know the Mah on Cigeasy's standard KR808's or the 902 manual battery??
