11/11/2013 I vape about twice that much...about 3.5-4ml a day. I'm going to order the 25cm charger & see how that goes - someone said something about it having a special chip (?). Maybe, it might charge faster, too. I'd love to see the day I can get at least 2 days out of a trustworthy battery.
Btw...my 'black eyed' battery has 4 notches. ______________________________________________________ 12/27/2013 After overcoming a problem at the beginning, this battery is still working great. Charge lasting 1 day for me.

lol then they're all different, I'll tell you how these 4 i ordered looks like when they arrive.
Btw that seems just right then, about the duration of the battery. I have a friend that vape as much as you do and he has to use a mech mod and anyway he recharges it everyday.
Also I think the mAh of the various batteries here are not always right. Not FT's fault, though, as I'm sure that's what the factory tells them, but I had different results with same mAh but different batteries, even with 3x more duration between them.
And about recharge speed if you find a charger that charges faster then I guess it's safer to stop using it, as it's going to do bad things with the battery. First there's a risk of explosion, and second the faster the battery is charged, the less it lasts before depleted and you shorten its life too.
6 hours to recharge this one is like a miracle imo, because a friend of mine has a 900 mAh ego battery and he needs the same amount of time to recharge them, and my 650mAh ego battery takes about 3 hours but only lasts about 10 hours (with terrible performances I might add).
Just have 2 or 3 of them around fully charged and recharge the depleted one while you use the other and you'll be fine, that's why I bought 2 more for me :)

I have 2 of these. I was using the chargers that I received in various "kits" and they would TAKE FOREVER TO CHARGE! 7-9hrs from dead. I bought the separate ego charger 0190800 and it cut the charging time in half, usually 4.5hrs from dead. I was thrilled so I bought another and had the same results. The chargers that I was using before had different markings in the back but still stated 5v/420mah charge rate. All my egos were effected by the crappy kit chargers (3 different ones). All my ego batteries (2 1300- 1 900 lcd and 2 650) charging times have been sliced in half.

i vape about 3-4ml a day, and when i just got this battery it lasted me a good three days, but then just went down from there.
FT offered me a refund or a replacement. i accepted the replacement.

In my experience almost all of these egos are crap,quality is hit or miss,cheap generic batteries are used when taken apart.The ego twists seem to be a little better quality.

Yeah I have a 650mah ego-v vv passthrough and it's great. It charges in like an hour and lasts over 1 day, plus you get the same output from first to last puff, but the 1300mah variant is quite long and not really handy to take around, so I bought one of these for that reason.
It's true that with these cheap batteries it's a hit or miss though.

I also have a 900mah pass through that I got from V.S. (the shop that dominates here where I live), and it's fabulous battery - though, a bit expensive. The button light changes colors as it gets depleted - doesn't konk out/leave you hanging from one second to the next. It lets you know when it turns red one should think about re-charging (but it doesn't just stop). Anyway, it's been almost a yr. and this VS battery is still going strong. I might keep buying batteries there.
FL is actually pretty new in the vaping world - we used to smoke everywhere and now it's a smoke-free state. Anyhow, I tried FT for little extras and liquids (like bigger sizes) that I can't find locally...and in the process saw batteries and thought I'd give 'em a try.

Hi,
Looks interesting - something I'd probably like.
Though, I'm afraid to purchase it - after my last wired battery episode that shorted & lasted only 3 wks.
thanks
