Have you checked to see if there’s a firmware update?
i never thought of that. The first wismec came from local vape shop. Second was ordered off internet because more colors to choose from. Im guessing it may just be firm ware update. Ill check into it and give update.

Just a reminder.. Properly pair your batteries.

Same Brand
Same size
Same chemistry
Same Mah rating

Same Charge
Same age



I have two.sets of batteries that i have always kept in a set to themselves. Still.thinking on buying a fresh set but im going to.check for a firmware update to first

I have been vaping for close to 5 months. I started with the Wismec RXgen3 and have never had a problem. I wanted another one because i fell in love with it and wanted a backup. Well the new one seems to drain the battery in slot 2 faster than slot 1 and 3. HAas anyone else had this problem.

You've got some great responses here already Nate riddle, just had a couple of thoughts.

How much difference in battery drain are you experiencing?

If your 2 sets of batts are performing differently in the same mod, it seems to me like the issue may be the batteries. If that's not the case, I misunderstood your posts :unsure:

As @greek mule said, try cleaning your battery contacts. If that is an issue, it could solve the problem. If not, you know that isn't the issue, and it's a cheap experiment to do :)

I have a couple of old RX200 mods that I used a lot back in the day (and beat the heck out of). If I remember correctly the batts stayed within +-0.1 V of each other as they ran down. That still meant I sometimes had one at 3.4 V and one at 3.6 when I replaced them.

Best of luck with it Nate :thumb:

Clean the contacts that have the issue and install the other set of batteries
I have been reading up on some reviews, apparently it comes down to i could have unintentionally purchased 3 brand new batteries from.two different manufacturing lot. Both sets apparently do the same. And i remember when i got them 2 batteries came from same pack and one always came from another. Heres the funny thing after charging and putting them back in old device they where fine. My older mod came with th e Gnome tank making it a newer model then new

My older mod is wismecs newest release rxgen3 300watts sith the gnome tank. Thhe newly purchased one without. Thats why im thinking its the firmware, its outdated. I just had that problem and sent it back. So i switched back to old one till new one came in and all.was fine. This makes the 2nd one that battery slot 1 and 3 run even while the B2 depletes faster. After charging and switching batteries around it still gives same results
