VV Grand Owners - question about battery life.

[Roland007]

Hey,

I am contemplating buying a VV Grand. I have a couple regular Grands and am very happy with them and their battery life. Here is my question:

I am a heavy vaper. For those of you who also vape heavily, have you been satisfied with battery life? I have found posts about how you can vape "x" number of Ml's or a certain number of hours, but those are all so subjective. I figured I would just simply ask if those of you who vape a ton have been happy so far with the VV Grand.

If I don't think it will work out for me, another regular Grand may be in order....lol.

Thanks!

I was surprised how happy I was with the battery life of my REO VV. All I have is a regular 18650 Woodvil and the 18350 Tesla and I find myself changing out the 18650 more often because the power decrease is noticiable.

iam very happy with the batt life i get

The VV might give you a slightly shorter vape time with the 18350's but it will certainly give you a more consistent vape throughout without any fading of throat hit or vapor production.

You can (as a general rule - there can be exceptions) expect to be able to consume really close to the entire 6ml bottle before needing to swap for fresh batts.

I've settled in to 2.5 ohm attys at somewhere around ~4.5 or 4.6-ish volts and usually have about a half a ml left when it's time to change batts... so I fill and change batts at the same time.

Hope that helps

I absolutely LOVE the VV Grand and would prefer it over the Grand even if the battery life totally sucked (which it doesn't.) The vape is consistent and great. I debated getting one for a long time for the same reasons you raise, but now I can't live without it.

Thanks so much for all the input!

When only using one VV REO all day, I put fresh batts in with my morning coffee and replace them during the 5:00 news. That's just my routine, and no, switching batts doesn't bother me in the least. Especially since the last plume of vapor is just as strong as the first.

It's even better with two VV Reos. Then just put fresh batts in once a day.

I have to agree with NE Oklahoma's Reovangelist. May not be entirely on topic, but the VVG and VVW also have built in short protection.

Ok. You all sold me..lol. Ordered a blemished VV Grand to add to the collection.

Now if anyone has some hot tips on where to get an SS Hornet or ERA shipped to Canada......

Thanks again!

Can't help you there. Pretty much stick with the chalice and reomizer.

Any reasons for preference of Chalice over Hornet, I am a Reo Grand user, 2 years ? Looking to get into RBA'S. Thanks.

you've been using cartomizers for 2 years??

Yes and I DIY so I adjust the loss of flavor with my mixing percentages and it has worked great but the new RBA's seem interesting. Thanks

I am disappointed by the battery life of the 18350s compared to the 18650s.
I do not use IMR batteries (1600MAH vs.3100MAH) in my Grand so I'm spoiled by the 3100 MAH capacity of my non-IMR batteries.
I do enjoy my VV Reo and I think that the shorter battery life with the VV compared to the standard Grands are worth the trade-off.

1.7 ohm cartos, vaping 3mls a day @ around 4.1 volts, I get a day and a bit using two trust fire 18350's. They're rated at 1200mAh but I wouldn't trust them to fire at that.

Given the cost $1.60 each and the cost of a pack of cigs in NY $10.00 for the cost of just 4 cigarettes I just toss the carto. I get descent use of cartos so I just put on a new one and off I go.

Love the battery life in my VV REO's and I too was a long time carto user for the same reason super simple super cheap. I would slap a new one on about every 3-4 days but I'm now 100% RBA'd out and totally lovin it
