gingervapes195 Posted October 22, 2015 Report Share Posted October 22, 2015 Also want more life out of my vt200 subbed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigcountry817 Posted October 22, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 22, 2015 FOUND IT!!!!! Alright. In escribe whenever yu get your device connected, go to device manager. there in the bottom right hand corner yu will see a list of boxes and one of them will say diagnostics. click that and then from there you can set the max charging limit and the max current limit. in the charging limit it asks for wattage hours. so put 14. that will change 900mah from typical mods to the vt200s 1400mah battery so when it charges, it charges fully.

blueridgedog Posted October 22, 2015 Report Share Posted October 22, 2015 The setting described will not impact charge or battery life, but it will make the meter correct. The only practical way to get more vape time out of a battery is to vape at lower wattages and make certain it is charged fully (using the "max puffs" setting).

Xx3dge Posted October 22, 2015 Report Share Posted October 22, 2015 i ran mine on the battery analyzer. its only 10.77 wh so around 950mah hcigar lied about the specs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Posted October 24, 2015 Report Share Posted October 24, 2015 Keep in mind that all battery manufacturers tend to rate their batteries at very low powers (representative for consumer electronics), not the high powers used in e-cigarettes. Battery Analyzer defaults to testing at 40W, and as a result its real-world measured battery capacity will tend to be below the rated value. For instance, our FullyMax battery tested around 9 Wh real world, though its rating is 10 Wh (this is where the default 9 comes from, if your manufacturer did not enter in a battery capacity). This is true for all batteries - 18650, LiPo, LiFePO4, whatever.For instance, I found this on Google Image Search: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v137/Tweek_CPF/18650_2400mAh.jpgOn that image, if you really wanted to vape at C/3 (3W), you might get that 18650 manufacturer's rated capacity.Also, Battery Analyzer considers the battery totally empty for meter purposes at the point when the battery can no longer sustain a 5W vape. There may be a few more puffs left in there, honestly, and the DNA will let you vape it (showing Weak Battery most likely), but them'll be weak puffs.

scoopy Posted October 25, 2015 Report Share Posted October 25, 2015 James if we vape at say 100 watts would it be better to run the battery analyser at 100 watts to......what I'm trying to say really ....is would u get a more accurate battery rating and curve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jbartolovich Posted October 25, 2015 Report Share Posted October 25, 2015 What should max puff be set at? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blueridgedog Posted October 26, 2015 Report Share Posted October 26, 2015 It is an either or setting, max puffs or max recharges. One charges the pack more, the other less for longer life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's how many amps you can charge at... 1 amp is the max supported on dna boards, or 2amp on the vaporshark... Setting that too high can kill your board.

Running it at 100w instead of let's say 50w will just reduce the amount of time it takes the analyzer too complete. The wh outcome will be the same.

scoopy Posted November 5, 2015 Report Share Posted November 5, 2015 OK, ya that's what I thought but wanted to make sure because after doing the analyser the battery meter hits 0% and I can still vape for a while and it's still at 3.6 volts per cell. Seems like it could still be more accurate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmclaurin Posted November 5, 2015 Report Share Posted November 5, 2015 I will defer to James if he really said that, but this should not be true. It is a fundamental and unavoidable characteristic of the chemistry of lithium-based cells that capacity declines as the rate of discharge increases.EDIT: I will admit, however, that running the analyzer at 100w versus 50w won't have a huge impact on the results, but the difference would certainly be measurable.
