[bomberharris]

was just wondering the new battterys will they need to be charged, or will they be fully charged, never bought this type of battery before so i don't know .

Mine needed charging and were my first big mod batts ... you will love the Vamo ... not put it down since I bought it ... I jump around with it pretending I'm a jedi

how long did you charge them for on there 1st charge.

Mine are Efest 18650 2200 mah I got from Liberty flights ... can't remember on first charge to be honest. I've got a Trustfire charger which goes from red to green on the lights when they are fully charged. They take a fair few hours but never timed it ... feels like 3-4 hours but not sure ... am looking for a faster charger at the moment

Think I've not noticed since one charge lasts me day ... so I vape and charge each day alternating the batteries

Charging time depends on what capacity the batteries are
How discharged they are when out on to charge
The charging current of the charger.

So no meaningful figures can be given unless you take the above into account.

I can charge my 2200 mAh batteries in about 5 hours on a rapid charge on my Xtar WPII. Or it can take take 8+ hours on "normal" charge rate for the same battery.

Ususually the batteries are at 50% charge when bought new, I think they can be lower sometimes too, from a 500mah charger I find it usually takes a 2000mah battery about 6 hours ish from 3.7volts starting voltage to 4.1v
the 3400mah could take around 8-9 hours
I think usually the first charge takes as long as the next one I'm finding, also I used to let it drop to 3.4v but apparently taking the battery out at 3.7v will make it last much longer.
I usually also let the battery sit for a few hours before charging it and also after charging it before putting it into the mod.

Also I use this charging bag for these batteries

To make things sound even more overkill, I fire up the first toke at the lowest voltage setting in the charging sack too lol

think i'll fire it up as soon as it arives use till the batterys are flat, then give them a good overnight charge, im praying there's some charge left in them as i'll be itching to try it.
looking for some kind of box to keep it in, in my pocket to give it some sort of protection, any idears ??
