Question about usable battery life

Status
Not open for further replies.
My wife and I are new to gaping and will be receiving our new Volt ecigs with 78 Mom batteries tomorrow. We are excited about switching from analogs to vaporizers. After we charge the battery the first evening and it is appropriately conditioned how much actual use will we get between recharges? My wife takes 3 fifteen minute brakes during the day at work. As long as we don't puff on them like demons (once every three to five seconds) will one battery last use during work?
Thanks.

I think those are 320mAh? With just a few 15 minute breaks it should be enough, but I would keep a spare battery or at least a charger on me just in case of emergency. I use a 650mAh and chain vape during the work day, it hasn't died yet (using a fresh charge in the morning). When I was using a 65mm 808 (~180mAh?) I was swapping batteries 4-5 times a day.

So, should be good enough, keep a spare just in case, and probably best to keep some spare juice in short reach also.

Hi Haji, The accepeted average for vaping is that 100mAh is roughly equal to 1 hour of vape time. The batteries in your volt 78mm kit I believe are 220mAh. You may find that one battery will last the day or you may find it does not. Your particular style of draw and overall use time is what will determine how it works for you.
When I began vaping I had a single battery kit with 150mAh and could go almost all day st work on a single charge. Now I use an 1100mAh device and it will last me over 14hours of heavy vaping. All of us are different in what we like and how our devices arre used. There is now way to now or sure just how long your device will go on a single charge until after you have already run it from full to empy a few times.
Good Luck. Happy Vaping.

Welcome Haji and congrats on getting ready to make the switch to vaping! :) I started out on the smaller batteries like those, and I always took 2 to work with me, and a charger. While 1 might make it through the day, it's not worth cutting it close and taking the chance of being caught out without anything to vape. :)

Hi again Haji, The batteries will last for days or weeks without showing any notable voltage drop when not in use. And yes Since you each have your own kits it would be wise to keep the whole kit available through the day. Once you get adjusted to the way vaping works in your particular situations you will find what is absolutely nessecary to have on hand.

They will not drain when not in use by any significant amount throughout a day. They'll eventually discharge from disuse but that will take a very long time. Since you have two batteries only, I'd say the heavier smoker should bring the charger for the first day or two, till you get a feel for your use. They take a couple hours to charge and should fit between the scheduled smoke breaks (you can use partially charged batteries if you need a vape and still have an hour left to charge).

I am a volt owner so maybe I can help.

The 78mm batteries are 320mah. A fully charged battery will give 15 minutes of total vaping. (that's the amount of time the battery is actually activating the coil). With that information, you will get about 3 - 5 hours of vaping depending on how you vape. If you take 1, 6 second puff each minute, you will get closer to 3 hours but if your puff is 3 seconds long once a minute, it will be closer to 5 hours

One battery lasts me most of my day, but i suggest bringing a second battery.

Don't forget about the "faces of volt" promo on their subforum. If you post a pic of yourself with your volt, they will send you a free battery, bottle of juice or pack of cartos,

If you want more info on the volt, check out my video
