I just received my Vmax in the mail a couple of days ago, and boy is it awesome! No more fiddling with it to get one satisfying hit, now its one after another. I ordered Efrest IMR 18350's (800maH) with my vmax and was wondering:

1.) Does anyone offer a modified cap spring to use an 18650? Seems like it would be just a little shorter battery than 2x18350 so would it still work with a single 18650 and slightly taller spring?

2.) I see lots of posts where you guys get 2 days out of these 18350's. My best is like 8 hours on a full charge. What am I doing incorrectly? I was a 1.5-2pack/day smoker, maybe I'm just draining them too quickly?

3.) If the 18650 mod doesn't/can't exist, can anyone recommend an 18350 that will last longer on a charge?

Thanks all and happy vaping!

Using an 18650 is simply out of the picture as the voltage is well below the automatic cut off. Your battery life is probably normal enough, simply buy another set of batteries and a battery box to carry them in when not in the charger.
