Innokin iTaste

How long is the battery lasting? What's your coil resistance and at what power are you vaping? The battery in the iTaste VV V3.0 is only 800 mAh, which is roughly equivalent to an 18350 battery in a ProVari Mini. I can drain one of those in about 2 hours if I'm chain vaping at 10-12 watts on a Nautilus 1.8 ohm coil, so if you're running in the same range, that would be about normal...YMMV.

Switching between VV & VW is as follows (from the User Manual with my annotations):

VV - Hold the “-” button first and then holding “Fire” (On/Off) button for two seconds to enter variable voltage mode. The digital screen will show the puff count first, then the last setting used (in voltage or wattage). Voltage can be adjusted from 3.3 to 5.0 volts in 0.1 volt increments by pressing the “+” and “-” button. You'll know you're in VV mode because there's a "U" showing (probably intended to be a "V") on the digital screen to the left of the number for "Volts".

VW - Hold the “+” button first and then holding “Fire” (On/Off) button for two seconds to enter variable wattage mode. The digital screen will show the puff count first , then the last setting used (in voltage or wattage). Wattage can be adjusted from 6.0W to 11.0W in 0.5 watts increments by pressing the “+” and “-” button. You'll know you're in VW mode because there's a "P" showing on the digital screen to the left of the number for "Power".

Ohms Meter & Battery Level Indicator & Puff Counter
Hold both the “+” and “-” buttons simultaneously for 2 seconds. The screen will show a series of readings, the first being the resistance of the attached load, the second being the battery voltage ("U"), the third being the number of puffs since the device was last turned off and the fourth being the last set voltage or wattage ("U" of "P"). If there's no not load is attached the display with show “NON”.

Hmmm, never counted puffs before to be honest...how long did it take you to rack up 180? What power are you vaping at and what's the coil resistance, too?

 

That sounds about right for an 800 mAh battery. When I'm working here at the house, I go through a 700 mAh battery in my ProVari Mini in somewhere between 2-4 hours so you're in the right ballpark.

I'll break out my iTaste VV in the next day or so and do a test to see how long it lasts as a comparison.

 

I second that notion...the VS rDNA is a fantastic bit of kit. I love mine and highly recommend it. VS is now shipping them with the Panasonic NCR18650B (3400 mAh) that will last even longer. However, as VS notes on their website, if you like to vape below 1 ohm, you'll need a battery with a higher amp limit (and make sure you put the battery in with the positive side to the bottom or you'll fry the circuit board).
