How Can I Make My Vape Battery Last Longer?
There are multiple tips to help maintain the longevity of your vape battery. Keeping your batteries clean and intact and keeping them in a safe storage location will help the longevity of vape batteries.
A few tips to consider would be to make sure that you are choosing the correct vape battery for your device. You will not want something that provides too much or does not have enough power, or may even potentially damage your device.
Waiting for your battery to completely die before recharging can also affect the life of a vape battery. Studies show that lithium-ion batteries can last significantly longer if you do not wait for them to discharge before recharging them completely.
Charging vape batteries to just below 100% can ensure that your battery capacity remains relatively good, and try to avoid leaving them on a charge when charging is complete.
How Long Should A Vape Battery Last?
On average, most vape batteries will last between 300-500 charging cycles, and it is recommended to replace external/removable batteries every 6-8months. However, this will depend on your device and how often you use it.
Over a significant period, your vape batteries will start to deplete. When your battery gets to the point of not being able to hold a decent charge, this is when we recommend replacing the batteries.
