Bad coils or krummy batteries?

[kerk]

Can bad new coils drain your batteries? Got some new batts and they sure run down real fast, even with new coils.  Been using same size batts for a few years, so pretty used to how much life I should get......but the coils could be the problem too, as they are not hitting that great on my USB pass-through either. 

It's like the software, and the hardware, pointing fingers at each other saying 'he did it'.

My vote would go to the batteries. Bad batteries can also affect how your coils act.

Probably batts, just hard to believe that the whole batch was bad........900 mah acting like 400 mah, in less than a month.  They are so bad that it takes 5 of them to vape for 2 hours. LOL

Thankfully I've pulled some of my throwaways out of retirement. They are working better than the new ones. 

Hanging on until the next order (different vendor) arrive.

Ive noticed some batts last longer than others no matter what the age

Hey Kerk. What type of atomizer are you using?
If you're making the coils build a bit higher.
Do the batteries act the same with different atomizers?
Do the batteries drain as quickly in a different mod?
If the drain is slower with a different tank or in a different mod it is the hardware if not batteries.
