I recently found a Tugboat Tuglyfe 200W box mod i'd bought (around 2017) but never used.
I tried to charge it up but it wont hold any charge.
Is there someway this could be done without taking it apart. I've had a look at the escribe software and cant find much help. Is there another method to kick start the battery?
Thanks

Can I use an external battery pack to charge an IPV Mini?
I have a 10,000mAh external battery to charge my cell phone (Note 4, with a 3500mAh battery), which has 2 options for charging: 1.5v=1A and 2.5v=2.1A.
Is it recommended? Is it safe? Are there any precautions I need to take if I use the battery pack?
I haven't gotten around to getting an extra 18650 battery (and charger) for the IPV Mini. I've finally realized that it takes maybe 2-3 hours to charge the battery via the USB cable. But the one battery doesn't quite last me all day, depending on how heavy I'm using the Mini.
I usually carry a Volcano Inferno once the Mini dies, but the Volcano really sucks in comparison to the Mini. I'd love to be able to charge the Mini while I'm out and about.
I've added a pic of the external battery for specific information.
Thanks for all your help.
Hi
I'm using Samsung 21700 T40 batteries.
Trying to figure out..
Is it best to charge a battery when it's discharged or nearly discharged?
I like to keep things simple with a routine of charging once a day, but then the battery will be set to charge even when there's 15-30% power left.
Is that bad for the battery?
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.
As my 1 year old battery supply started to die I bought 4 LG HG2s for replacement. I thought I had a dud when one of them ran out of gas 2/3 of the way through a 5.5ml tank twice. Then it would not charge completely. I was about ready to pitch it but gave it one last try after it finally took a complete charge. To my surprise it lasted the whole tank with about 1/8 of a bar left. Is this common or a fluke?
I have a couple old 18500 baterries that would not hold a charge for too long but they still work. I just use them at home and switch them out when they die. The tube mod I use them in, Itaste 134 mini, seems to get very hot while vaping and I was just wondering if it was safe to use them until they are completely dead and won't fire. I am just cheap. Thanks.
I ordered a SXmini SL class with the sx485j chip and it recommends a 35a battery. I only use .15ohm coils at 60 watts so I should be good with a samsung 18650-35E right? Going to buy 21700 batteries once these start losing their charge because I just got them recently..
I'm not battery expert so I am not sure how everything works, but here are my concerns.
My Smok Thallo can charge at a 1.2A current but it is a USB-C, why include a USB-C if 5V/1.2A can charge as quickly with a Micro USB? I think.
So here is the question, can I charge my Smok Thallo with a 2.1A if I use the wire that came with the kit? It's hard finding a solid power bank with 5V/1A only. I cannot remove the battery, it has a built-in 3000mAH one.
Thanks!
i want to buy a new battery but i'm living in korea.

if i buy a new battery then it could be charged in the pack?(charge seat for blu battery)
Hey vapers.
Wanted to start a thread for discussing the DNA 250c chip, all of its features, options, performance, etc.
I started this threat to not only begin a discussion about the DNA 250c chip, but to also share something with new users that may prolong the life of their batteries.
With battery life, I mean the number of charge cycles it'll take before noticeable decline in performance, and general battery health. My advice of setting the cutoff voltage higher will shorten actual run time.
I've noticed that 'out of the box' the DNA 250c is set to soft cutoff the battery at 2.75 volts.
This results in a 3.00 volt reading on my charger when I get the batteries out.
This, in the opinion of many, is too low for batteries to go, and especially to remain there for any length of time.
So, I want to share with you how to change the settings so that your mod will cease using the battery at 3.1 volts, which results in your battery resting at a healthier 3.35 volts.
Here's how :
Click the image for a larger view.
Basically, in Escribe, go to Options, then User Interface, then Advanced. Select Mod tab, and then Battery tab. There you will see the 2.75 volt setting, and you should change that to 3.1 volts. Upload setting to device, and you're done.
The DNA 250c comes with a wide array of options and customized performance.
I'd love for people to chime in and share their tips and expertise with Escribe and the DNA 250c chip.
So let's hear t !
P.S. When will Evolv update Escribe to list 21700 batteries ?
I have a variable voltage/wattage battery and I have heard that some say charge it as often as you can this reduces stress, others say that's bad, some say a combination of long and short cycles but I don't know which is best. My battery's manual said get down to 10% but it doesn't measure it accurately (but I love these batteries so I don't want to change but they are expensive so I want to prolong their life span as long as possible even if that does mean charging them very often.) I do have two so charging often isn't an inconvenience for me if that's what I am supposed to do.
