Armour pro questions?

[MrDJ]

Well I started using the armour pro at 10-12w at around 2pm yesterday, today at 9:30am the battery needed charging.
I used a new molicel p42a 4200mah 21700 that I'd charged to full with a 1a charger before putting it in the mod.
I thought I would get 2 days at least before charging from what I've read.

Strange. Now single battery mods are never going to be great but at 12w I'd thought you would get much better than that.
I'm using 40T in mine at 65w and would need to charge every night but there's a lot of difference between 12 and 65.
I use those 2 molicel in the x217 at 80w and it seems to last ages.
But
I do have other lots on the go at home so the armour is not used on its own only at work.
Hopefully someone else can advise.

@Frogprince , this is a bit strange, it will depend on how much you vape as even at low watts if the mod is always working it will go through a battery quite fast. I use a Samsung 30T and it does last quite a bit used at 60W. But I use the mod as having a cig, on breaks about the same time and number of puffs as a cigarette. Having it next to you and being able to vape undisturbed it will drain it even at 12w. Now there was also some discussion online a while back that some of the armour pro's drain the battery without an atomiser connected and also getting warm/hot but that seemed to be long time ago and never heard of it again.

Battery life should also improve a bit after a few charge cycles.

How durable is this mod? Any issues with the battery door as google brings up some issues? I liked my old cascade stick with the mesh coils.

I guess it will be based on user and usage, i take care of them and it also helps that I charge my bat in the mod si I rarely open the door. I read some stuff as the battery door can open easy but never had any issues in 6 months.

Good to know - what size battery are you using?

@Frogprince I would have thought you’d have gotten a lot longer than that from it. Do you know roughly how much liquid you went through in that time? (I.e. were you caning it?) Also, did you switch it into standby mode overnight? Not doing so can lead to battery drainage on some mods.

I used about 5ml of liquid 13,5mg (still a nicotine fiend) 70 or 80 pg.
I didn't switch it off and screen saver clock is on default for 15min but surly that uses so little power it won't affect it much

That don’t seem right to me. Sorry if it’s already been mentioned, but what battery are you currently using? I get about a day and a half from an 18650 vaping at 15w (different mod though). @AJT do you use this mod with your Zeniths? How long do you get from a charge roughly?
