I'm about to put my MVP 20W and MVP 3.0 in the back up drawer. They've serve me well since the beginning of the year but I'm moving on to REO's. Should I store them charged or empty? May need to use them again or pass them on to someone else.
Hey guys,
I finally updated my charger a few days ago (I think before I had the VP2) or something like that. Quick question on something I'm noticing that seems a bit odd to me.
When I charge (for example 18650's), a battery that's fully charged in channel 1...it flashes FULL/0.00 mA, I remove the battery. A few minutes later, I'll put the battery back in the same bay, and all of a sudden there are a few hundred mA's that show up on the screen that need to be charged back into the battery and it takes a few minutes for channel 1 to recognize the battery is fully charged and flash FULL/0.00mA again (although it does show above that's fully charged at 4.2v).
If I take that same battery and do the same test but this time in channel 2, within a few seconds it recognizes that the battery is fully charged and flashes FULL/0.00mA. So it seems channel 1 is not working as well as channel 2 is, when it comes to recognizing information from the battery.
Is this normal for this charger or do I have a defective charger?
I have decided to keep one of my mods with the battery removed in a spare purse. I had the bright idea that I'd keep 2 batteries charged in a plastic case. This way if I switch purses, I do not have to worry about forgetting my mod and, if I do, I will have a spare one.
So --- approximately how long will the batteries (21700) stay charged without being used?
I am very curious. There is a LOT of talk about not knowing the long term effects of vaping. It has only really been around for a little more than 10 years.
Who here has been vaping the longest? I have been vaping for about 8 years. I have seen no bad side effects or health problems. It has dramatically improved my breathing, endurance, and just generally feeling much better.
Do we have anyone that is in the 10+ year category? 10+ years won't make the doctors happy but I think that is long enough to start picking away at the "don't know long term effect" garbage.
Herro!
So, I always used to use mech mods from about 6 months to a year and a half into vaping. For the last 6 months I've been on regulated (iStick 30W and 50W).
When I switched to regulated I retired my mech mods and 18650 batteries to the closet. I made sure they were all around 50% charged because I heard from someone on here that was the best condition to leave them.
Well recently I've had this curiosity to try them again, only for at home use, mainly for the novelty of it.
So, my question is, what will I have to do to revive these batteries? Are they safe to just throw back on the charger and use when fully charged? Or are they not safe to use?
Batteries: 4 Sony VTC 4's (all were acquired about a month before I stopped using mechs), 2 XTAR (Sony) VTC 4's (about a year old now) , 2 MXJO 2500mah (20A LG's) (about a year old now).
Let me know! Thank you!

Has two itaste vv 3.0's one of them will be a year old in two weeks and the second one will be a year old in May. Thought at first it was a fluke that the puffs from full charge to empty went from 350 down to 110 in less than a week now puffs are only 80 from full to empty on both of them. Charging them both like crazy until I can figure out what new shiny to buy. I am just shocked they are dieing as fast as they are about a years usage for under 60 bucks is not so bad though. Any suggestions looking for something similar but not with a fixed battery would like something with replaceable rechargeable batteries. Therefore not interested in the vv4 would like something that will last for more than a year.
Thanks guys & gals

Nicotine storage has been somewhat of a hot topic lately, and as I've been evaluating my storage setup, one of the things I've been wanting to do is to finish topping off some amber bottles that aren't quite full of nicotine and have too much headspace for my liking. My question is: would there be a problem with mixing the same strength nicotine from different vendors? If I have a 8oz. bottle with 7oz. of MFS 100mg nic, can I add another oz. of River Supply or Heartland Vapes 100mg nic to it without causing any kind of weird damage to it or affecting the long term storage quality?
Looking for any good suggestions on battery storage and transport. I've searched around on here and don't seem to see a whole lot of discussions on the topic. Some that I've seen include medicine bottles (free if you have 'em) and the Krazy Glue storage tube
I loved this thought and found it for $1.50 on Amazon (as an add-on) but looking for other ideas. Thanks!
It's quite expensive and I can charge it with a better charger that will prolong it's usability then I'm all for it. It doesn't matter how long it takes to charge, because I have others I can use while it gets charged. The manual says not to use chargers that didn't come with it but I want to find a way to improve their lifespan anyways because their lifespans are short & they're very expensive.

Apollo Valiant VV & VW 1300mah Battery is my battery's link. If there are any better batteries that are better I may be interested in upgrading, I strongly prefer the stick kind like this, but if they are super awesome they don't have to be but I don't like the idea of having to build a battery myself.
Hi,
Unfortunately they are about to ban nicotine E juice in my country in 6 months time. I was stocking up on my regular E juice but this is not really a long term feasible solution.
Luckily I vape unflavoured, so I figure it shouldn't be too hard to make myself.
I had a bit of a look around and found liquid nicotine, up to 250mg/ml, or nicotine salts, both USP, whatever that means.
Just wondering what the best nicotine product would be for long term storage and quality. If someone could recommend a vendor and product that would be great. I normally vape 70/30 pg juice from Heather's heavenly vapes.
I would prefer a liquid than a salt unless there is a big difference in shelf life.
Thanks for your advice
i have a new Itaste VV4 15 watt 1000mah
I don't seem to get as much time out of my battery as i expected- does anyone know about how long it should last?
I'm going to test it out to see exactly how much time i get out of a full charge but as of right now i just feel like it's not lasting as long as it should.
Also when I use it plugged up on a charging cord the battery still runs out till it eventually has no charge and turns off and cant be used till it adds up some charge on it- I thought since it was a pass through device i would still be able to continue to use it while being plugged up on the charger, so im not sure if I should actually be able to with this device and mine is not working correctly or thats just how this unit does work.
