What battery are you using and at what wattage are you vaping?

Hi and welcome,
What is the brand and model of the battery you are using?
How many watts are you feeding the C3?

Yes, the device must use an 18650 size battery.
What is the brand and model of the battery?
60 watts on a single, quality 18650 will provide a very short useful life.
If you plan/need to vape at 50-60W consistently, a two (2) battery device will provide a longer run time.

Also the age of the battery matters. Most allow for 300 charge cycles, that's about a year. When fully charged, press the button and check the battery indicator. Does it go down a lot? That means the battery is worn, and you're experiencing battery sag. Battery needs to be replaced.
On the other hand, I agree, at those wattages you need a two battery mod that will keep up with requirements better.

Do you mean the battery display is at 60-70% or do you mean your battery is discharged rapidly, I'm a bit confused. The former might mean your mod's board is reading your battery INCORRECTLY, the latter may simply be due to how high you are vaping, and if it's on an elderly or low capacity battery, that may well shorten vaping time.

We still need to know what your battery is, where your battery is from, and how old it is, that would probably be helpful. Have you tried the battery in any other mods, and noted performance in THOSE? If you use the same tank and coil and vape at the same wattage, that MAY tell you that it's the mod not the battery (although to be fair, different boards convert power some more efficiently than others, but well, even without a 1:1 concordance you may find that you have a problem with the mod, etc.)

You could also obtain a new, fresh battery with decent specs (use an authentic seller as well) and see what happens I guess. Seems to me there may POSSIBLY be an issue with your board.

If you have neither thing, you may want to go to a Brick and mortar vape shop to see how things go and if they can help you isolate the problem and etc.

Best of luck,
Anna

We still need to know the make and model number of the battery you are using.

Not all 18650 batteries are created to be equal in amperage. There are 15, 20, 25, and 30 amp models.

If you are using a 15 amp model, it won't be able to supply over 45 watts. Battery amperage and mod wattage output have a direct relationship to each other.

Also, if using a Chinese brand battery (ie AWT, Basin, Efest, Imren, MXJO, etc), those manufacturers are notorious for inflating the true amp ratings of their batteries. Are You Using a Rewrap (Rebranded or Aftermarket) Battery?

WATTAGE PER SINGLE BATTERY on REGULATED MOD:

Up to 45W:

Samsung 18650 30Q, 3000 mah 15 amp CDR

Sony 18650VTC6 3000mAh 15 amp CDR

Up to 60W:

LG 18650HG2 3000mah 20 amp CDR

LG 18650HE4 2500 mah 20 amp CDR

Samsung 18650-25R, 2500 mah 20 amp CDR

Sanyo UR18650NSX, 2500 mah 20 amp CDR

Sony 18650VTC5, 2600 mah 20 amp CDR

Sony 18650VTC4, 2100 mah 23 amp CDR

Just a coincidence I have a evic mini I've been using about a year and a half or so, been getting the same message the last week or so. Have some LG HG2's and some samsung 25R's I use. Some may be at their limit but 6 of the HG2's are fairly new. Single coil in a sub tank 1.18 ohms, around 10 watts. Acts like battery sag, and could be. I suspect it's the mod though, hung out at the beach for a week right before it started, never got it submerged, but did carry it around in wet pockets.. about time for a new mod anyway.

Samsung 25R and LG HG2 are great cells for 10W vaping. I get 10 to 12 hours heavy vaping on either one of those vaping at 10W with atty resistance from .5 to .8 ohms. For me the Sony VTC6 yields slightly longer vape times than the 25R and the HG2.

For longer vape times you might want to look at dual cell mods. The Eleaf Invoke or the Hcigar VT75 DNA mod are good choices. Eleaf iSticks yield surprisingly long vape times for their size and cost.

Yea, I just like the size of the single cell mods. Have a couple backups, started using one today, it's the mod for sure, same batteries, same tank, battery life is back up to normal. Evic lasted year and a half or so as daily driver so can't complain. May have just got to wet. Might even buy another one.. jac vapor has had my attention for a while now though (thanks to Baditude ).

Good call. The eVic Mini and Jac Vapour are hands down my favourite single cell mods. The advantage of the Jac is really in TC. It's miles ahead of the Mini. But if you're not interested in TC, you might be just as happy with the less expensive eVic Mini.

replace the mod, or try the batteries on another.
