Compenstine Posted May 14, 2015 Share Posted May 14, 2015 I had one of those chargers. One bay lasted 2 months the other bay lasted 3. They are junk in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Compenstine Posted May 14, 2015 Share Posted May 14, 2015 Xtar makes a decent charger the VC2 for $19.99 is a decent low priced charger or go with a Nitecore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squid Posted May 14, 2015 Share Posted May 14, 2015 Luc v4 or the Nitcore UM20 are great chargers. I have both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Earthling789 Posted May 14, 2015 Share Posted May 14, 2015 I've heard of a lot of people using Orbtronic batteries, but I've not personally used one or even seen one in nearly a year. I "think" the Vamo kits use to come with Orbtronic batteries, but I may be incorrect on that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cany Posted May 18, 2015 Author Share Posted May 18, 2015 (edited) OK I picked up this charger so far so good but the Orbtronic battery's dont last so long by the time I go to bed I will have used up the two battery's in one day http://www.efestpower.com/Product/5163781547.html Edited May 19, 2015 by cany Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squid Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 Looks like a 2 bay version of the LucV4, should work for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cany Posted May 20, 2015 Author Share Posted May 20, 2015 Rixter are these the same as the ones you posted I cant find the post. http://www.amazon.com/Efest-Purple-2500mAh-Rechargeable-Batteries/dp/B00P8BXE3G/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1432122798&sr=1-1&keywords=efest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squid Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 I have the 20amp 3100Mah version of those. I love them. The ones you linked to are on sale at batteryjunction.com for 11.95. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cany Posted May 21, 2015 Author Share Posted May 21, 2015 What does the higher Mah do? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tam Posted May 21, 2015 Share Posted May 21, 2015 mAh stands for milli-amp hours. The higher the mAh, the more charge your batteries have so you have to charge it less often. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cany Posted May 21, 2015 Author Share Posted May 21, 2015 So a higher mah battery lasts longer than a low mah one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tam Posted May 21, 2015 Share Posted May 21, 2015 Yes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cany Posted May 21, 2015 Author Share Posted May 21, 2015 Cool Thanks this 2100 one I have dont last long Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tam Posted May 21, 2015 Share Posted May 21, 2015 2100 mAh should last a whole day or more. How fast is it going through a charge? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Earthling789 Posted May 21, 2015 Share Posted May 21, 2015 One thing to look out for... higher mAh also means you sacrifice Amp-ratings (discharge). 18650's with 3600mAh capacity generally have < 10A discharge ratings (not to be used with sub-ohm coils). If you want a 20A rated (discharge) battery, you're best mAh ratings will be in the 2500 range... and as Tam indicated, 2100mAh should last a day (or most of it anyway). I get a full day (sometimes longer) out of my Samsung 25r's (20A discharge / 2500mAh capacity). Tam 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cany Posted May 21, 2015 Author Share Posted May 21, 2015 (edited) I might get 12-14 hrs out of it is that what you guys mean by all day?? Edited May 21, 2015 by cany Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Earthling789 Posted May 21, 2015 Share Posted May 21, 2015 All day? If I pop in a fresh battery in the morning, before I leave for work, I still have power left when I go to bed (usually), or at worst-case, I have to put in another battery late in the evening. Since everyone vapes different volumes of juice daily... I'll compare to volume... One 2500mAh battery usually carries me through two Russian 91% tanks (8-9 ml of juice)... sometimes I get a good start on the third tank-full, but never get a battery go carry though that 3rd tank.

cany Posted May 21, 2015 Author Share Posted May 21, 2015 Yup all day lol forgot the LL. I guess my batts lasting about normal then Earthling789 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mirage Posted May 21, 2015 Share Posted May 21, 2015 I burn thru 2 vtc4's a day. I chain vape hard and heavy though...lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Earthling789 Posted May 21, 2015 Share Posted May 21, 2015 Yeah, heavy use, or use at high Watts will drain them faster... I run my Russians between 10.5W and 15W, so one 2500mAh battery lasts through two tank-fulls, easily. I can get through 3 or 4 Aerotank refills on a battery... so still about the same volume of juice (7.5 - 10ml) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
