I have had my Spinner II since Saturday and I really like the look and feel of it but I am a bit puzzled as why I am still getting the same amount of hours use from it as my spinner 1300 mah  . I did a test yesterday on the spinner 2 and it lasted 10 1/2 hours, today I did same test with my spinner 1300 and it lasted 11 hours, I was expecting at least 15 hours from the spinner 2 or am i expecting too much from it?.

I may be wrong Jules but the new battery might need to be 'broken in', give it another week or so for the charge/capacity to settle in and you might see a difference. Although to be honest, personally I think there isn't too much difference between 1300 MaH and 1600 MaH, but the main thing is if it works for you and you enjoy the vape, what's a few MaHs between battery friends   |

I was expecting at least 15 hours from the spinner 2 or am i expecting too much from it?. Jules Quite probably Jules . . . I'd be thrilled to get 10.5 hours from a Spinner battery. |

Yea, I seem to remember reading somewhere that batteries take a couple of dozen charges to take the full charge and to discharge to the fullest extent too. Might be a bit premature to be testing right now, might be interesting to do a comparison test in a fortnight!

Might be a bit premature to be testing right now, might be interesting to do a comparison test in a fortnight! you are right again a battery has to burn in it normally takes about 6 cycles then it is at full strength but is all downhill from that point as it slowly wears out but should get about 500 useful cycles even though manufactures state differently 300 - 600 is typical of what they state |
