You should be getting around 6-8hrs vaping at around 50w which is fine in my book, and much the same as i would get from the likes of theSx Mini, mods powered by lipoly at the size of the VT200 will just not be capable of running for ages as some expected, solely down to the size of pack you can fit in, if it took say a 1500mah pack then you would begin to see a fair difference. I also knew about the 510 change but honestly i have had plenty of clones with brass 510's and dont see that as an issue unless your ham fisted.
Running mine at 11.1 for the last few dats and as reefcat says the reading now corresponds.

Did you run the test to get the exact numbers of the battery? Do that, and set it up by the numbers that will come up from escribe. To me, it did a significant improvement of the battery life Test? do you mean the battery analyser ?? if so can you please describe whats needed step by step to perform this test? afaik you need a fully charged battery and a throwaway coil fitted in an atty attached to the device, and set a discharge wattage 40w reccomended??? is that it? how long will it take ? and is it safe to leave unattended?? many thanks in advance.. That's the other analyser, forgot what it's called you don't need a coil for the battery analyser.. For what your on about Evolv reccomended using a resistor/thick copper wire not your standard vaping wire.. But for the battery analyser you need a pretty full battery and it will charge and discharge it a number of times to get an accurate reading of battery.. Maybe VapingBad can add on the other analyser?

Maybe VapingBad can add on the other analyser? It is the battery analyser that needs a resistor (case analyser doesn't). I drains and charges the battery at what ever wattage you set it to, IIRC Evolv said about 40 W is a good level and you need a resistance that can take a constant 40 W of heat until the battery is empty so be careful. More detail on how to do it.

Think i will give the analysis a miss till im better versed in these things - am building up a backlog of homework all the film resistors i have are 1/4-1/2w so no good for the job.. - i will read up.... Ive lifted the suggested values for the battery in the vt200 and am using those now, so far its still on its from the shop charge.. saying that i bet the next puff will give me a low battery warning..

The analyser is a bit of a faff imo, far easier just using a hobby dedicated lipoly charger as this will show exactly what you put back into the pack. But again not for folk that have not been used to using lipoly chargers as you can make some serious mistakes with the settings.
I think some of these manufacturers were not expecting anyone to be checking the capacity of these packs, not knowing the R/C world has been using them for the last decade. ( and some vapers)

Recieved the efusion today, its bloody stunning, great looking mod, Now I need some help, my laptop gave up the ghost yesterday so I can't change the battery setting, it will be a little while until I can afford to buy another, it was an old one from the wifes works, so I shouldn't be too surprised that it only lasted a few weeks so is there anyone out there who could do it for me if I cover the postage, Thanks in advance Glen

What do you mean m8? sending your efusion to get the wh'S changed? is there no one local that could pop escribe onto for a few mins? if it's just the wh setting it will just mean the meter dropping quicker than the pack actually has left. wont cause any harm as the low battery will kick in once a cell becomes depleted.
I would be worried shipping back and for.

Mine has arrived at my son's place in the UK. Thanks for the great service vapegeek Trouble is, he's also a vaper, so he gets to play with it for 12 days before he comes over here
