I just got a nitecore i2 charger always just use the charger on my mod but it's starting to get a tad wiggle to it so figured I'd buy decent charger just wondering how long to charge and is it supposed to get a little warm?
So i just got the nitecore 1a charger in the mail today for my 18650. Previously i was using the usb charger to charge it on my ipv mini 2 but i haven't tried the nitecore yet. about how long would it take to charge this battery on my nitecore?
looking at buying a new charger from edisonbright(authorized nitecore distributor) after getting burned with a fake on ebay. i can either get a UM or a D2 as thats what my funding allows, which do you reccomend? i only have 2 batteries right now, so charger space isnt a premium.
I've been charging my 18650 batteries on a Nitecore charger but having to unscrew my Smok XPRO m65 is a real pain so thought I may as well make use of the USB port and charge the battery while it's still in the mod.
But I've been hearing a few horror stories of other mods such as the clouper, apparently its not safe to charger using the USB port
I'd really appreciate it if anyone can help inform me if I'd be able to use my phone charging adaptor with my mod.
The input and output specs of my phone charger and mod input are in the attached pics.
Cheers everyone
Hi so i grabbed a Juul from the gas station and plugged the charger into my pc , and so it was blinking when i put it on the charger, and it was on maybe an hour or so until it got solid light. But when i took it off , i noticed it was a little warm to the touch which surprised me a bit. Just wondering if anyone seen this or if this could some kind of issue. Thanks for any help
I just got an istick 30w the other day from a local tobacco store. I bought an istick 30w for $45 which isn't too bad, I'm having problems with it not charging to full. I am using a 1a rated charger and it is supposed to charge to full in exactly 2.5 hours with a dead battery. I cannot get it to charge above about 75-80%, no matter what I do. As of now it's been on the charger for 2 hours and 38 minutes and is at about 80%, and is showing no sign of continuing to charge.
When I leave the device on overnight, I will wake up and it will be at around 65%, and it would have just stopped charging. I don't understand.
Hey folks.
Title pretty much says it all. Invested in a collection of aw from rtd. Found that my el cheapo charger was getting them to 4.3. Figured it was time to invest. Most of the threads I found where pretty dated.
So... There's the nitecore d series. The pila (didn't research this one a lot) or the xtar.
Finding pros and cons to each. What's your up to date opinion?
intstalled 2 sony vtc 5's in my new nitecore d2 that i just received today. both bays indicated low charge with 1 bar on each meter. 3.67v for bay 1 and 3.62v for bay 2. an hour later bay 1 has 3 bars, 3.88 v and bay 2 has 1 bar, 3.71v. seems bay 2 is not charging. is the charger or battery acting up?
after bay 1 finishes can i install the battery not charging in bay 1 to test.

Posted this here so more people see it.
Just curious that if I could build a device that would allow me to connect an eGo or Vision Spinner 2 type battery to a charger like a Nitecore Intellicharger i4 that it would work safely and efficiently in place of the usual USB charger? I have an idea as to how to make the connection but I wanted to get some feedback on the idea before I actually proceed to build it. I admit that I am no expert when it comes to Li-ion batteries but my goal is to be able to charge the "stick" type batteries that I own in a faster and safer manner than the seemingly low tech USB chargers. Thanks for any input offered.
I have a Vamo in the mail, since I already have 18650s and a beast of a charger from when I was into radio control. The wife just informed me we're going on vacation for a week, woohoo. My charger is a but bulky and requires a separate power supply.
So, now I'm stuck between buying a new charger that I only see myself using when we go away, or a cheap box mod with battery (like an mvp 2) that I would probably get more use out of, but it's a little more money than the charger would be.
