Am I Frying My Ego?

[cheryli]

I just got 1000 batteries. I also just got lr cartos...they are 1.5! (I won't do that again.) The battery did great for a few weeks and now seems to run down way too fast, like 5 hours when I used to get 8-10 hours of fairly heavy vaping. Do LR cartos affect the battery life? Should I ditch the 1.5s that I bought...gosh I got a carton!

LR cartos will drain the battery quicker. Yes, I think you should get rid of them--I'll pm you my address and I will dispose of them for you.

The only problem cherli is that once you go lr, it is hard to go back to normal cartos (less vapor and throat hit). So the trade off is a little less battery life.

i found that the 1.5 were too much for any ego battery. stick with the boge 2.0 will work better

That actually sounds a about normal. And most people usually get shorter battery life after vaping for a while. Its usually because you're vaping more than when you started, though you might no realize it. Just remember, a regular atomizer is about 2.5 ohm. That will get you about 11-12 hours battery life. An LR as you know is 1.5 ohms. You're looking at twice the heat, twice the drainage. So, about 5-6 hours appears to be pretty normal. I don't think you're killing your battery.

As King said, if you want to stretch a little more time, grab up some 2.0's if you must
