VapingBad Posted September 9, 2016 Report Share Posted September 9, 2016 Are you using a VaporShark DNA 200, if so that would be fine as they have 2 A charging, otherwise I would open a support ticket with Evolv. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tried using an iPhone wall charger which is 5V 1A the device still shows over 1A like 1.7-1.8A its impossible that iPhone wall charger can charge over maximum.

dwcraig1 Posted September 9, 2016 Report Share Posted September 9, 2016 On any non Vapor Shark 200 maximum amperage should be 0.5 amp with data path (computer) and 1 amp stand alone charger regardless of their respected output. The DNA 200 board controls charging. I'm curious if it's reading the correct amperage but suspect that it is.Edit: but then again most (not all, eg. USB 3.0) computers only will output 0.5 amps.Is there any possibility that there is juice on the bottom of the board around the USB? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dwcraig1 Posted September 9, 2016 Report Share Posted September 9, 2016 Still should be no higher than 0.5 amp either port (2 or 3) on any EScribe capable non Vapor Shark DNA mod. I don't know what VS charges with a data connection.I guess the thing to do would be to try it with a different computer just to eliminate that.Edit: Does it appear to actually charge extra fast?

dwcraig1 Posted September 9, 2016 Report Share Posted September 9, 2016 What battery did you get? I replaced mine with a 1300 mah ( https://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/uh_viewItem.asp?idProduct=59112 ) had to shorten the main wires and change the plug. Turned out the original battery was good, got juice on the JST causing #3 cell to slowly drain when idle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
