Vision Ego Rainbow SR Issues?

[beautycat]

I see thanks Jason. I am into my third week so very pleased and I'm sorry to have sounded disparaging. I have asked loads of questions but one I didn't ask was how long they would last I just assumed they would last forever

And I also recommend you to everyone cos I think you're great and offer fab service

One of the problems I face when people are interested in vaping is when I tell them that cartos etc are disposable, then when you tell them that rechargable batteries don't last forever, they give up before they start

obviously spending £7 on a pack of ciggies every day is much better value ???

Ive been vaping 2 months now and got about 8 -10 cartos on the go and they all still work fine..not had any pack up on me Happy Days

Mmm just looking at how many I haven't smoked makes it worth it

I am same after 4 months but I do wash mine out after 2 fills to get the gunk out

Thought you were talking about cartos for a minute there

I've started a collection of 'used but not worn out' cartos. When I have a good few I'm going to boil them then freeze them, worth a try, nothing to lose

They're not ready to give up Karma..Nothing to do with sense..

I boiled my sky cig ones and they were never the same...i wouldnt bother karma.. just be hardcore and vape thro

No Gaz, i'm a bit of a tree hugger at heart and I like the concept of recycling, so I'm going to give it a go

[Gaz1888]

Fair enough Karma

I think I'm happier when stuff just dies completely, then I don't feel bad about putting it in the ' re-cycling ' dish . . . when something still has a little life in it, it seems wasteful somehow to ditch it.

Daft really, because start on a fresh something, it's a much better vaping experience and then I think why have I plodded on with this worn out thing.

I have tried mine on all the batteries I have and they don't work. Jas said that his only lasts about 3 weeks, if thats the case I will have to go back to Boges/Kangors otherwise it is going to be more expense.

3 Weeks you say and on what voltage was he using do you know? Remember these were made originally to go onto a eGo battery and obviously work well unto 3.7 volts. Now my girl has a eGo battery and she has had hers now for 4 weeks and still going strong but in my case I use them on a Provari on 4.2 volts and mine last about 3 weeks hence the reason why I am asking as the higher the voltage the less life you will get out of them you see.

Let me get this straight..

So it used to used work and stopped working after 6 weeks..Is that what you meant when you said it wouldn't fire on any batteries?

If any of mine lasted six weeks, I would build a little temple for it..

Is this question meant for me macca?
the answer is, I bought some 6 weeks ago,

not used every day and 2 of them have died, never had a dead one before
I too thought they would last ages as I couldn't see anything that could go wrong with them, so it was a shock when Jas said his last 3 weeks, now i am better informed I will use them wisely and still clean them out.

I have Boge & Kangors I still use from day 1, that was 3 months ago

Thanks for that Mixdoctor, I didn't know the higher the voltage the less life I will get out of them. I have only used 1 on my new Ego twist and always vape on 4.8 so I will keep an eye on that one.

the other batteries I use the clearomiser on are the Riva1100 which do not have a voltage regulator.

Don't know about you perps but I am a' war baby' and have a waste not want not attitude towards everything, eeking things out is in my blood I'm afraid.
