What's different about a Vuse vape battery?
It's worth noting that Vuse vape batteries are not typical, everyday batteries. They are lithium-ion, a type of rechargeable battery.
How long will a Vuse battery last?
A Vuse vape battery typically lasts up to twelve months, but the lifespan can vary depending on how often you use your vape device and how you care for it. That's why we want you to become a pro at getting the most out of your Vuse vape battery.
What the different light indicators mean?
White light appears: when you take a puff and inhale vapour, the Vuse device activates and a white LED lights up. This is normal. When you finish your puff, the white light will turn off.
White light flashing while vaping: if the device short-circuits, the LED light flashes, the pod's power supply is interrupted and vapour production stops.
White light flashes 3 times: if the device is vaping for more than 5 seconds, the LED light on the device will flash 3 times and turn off.
The white LED flashes 5 times: this is a signal that the charge level is low.
The white LED flashes 10 times: it is time to charge your device.
Charging the battery for the first time
For optimal performance, your Vuse device should be fully charged before you use it for the first time. Here's how to ensure your vape battery receives the optimal power for your vaping experience:
- Connect the charging cable to the device.
- Plug the other end into a USB port/charging station.
- It should take no longer than 1 hour to fully charge your Vuse device when using the correct charging input.
- Do not leave your device unattended while charging.
- To gauge charging progress, monitor the LED indicator on your device. When it shows a steady white colour, your vape is fully charged.
Understanding battery charging
When the white LED flashes 5 times, the charge level is low, and when it flashes 10 times, you need to charge your device.
The LED indicator will show the different charge levels when the battery is turned on. (Remember not to leave your device unattended while charging.
When the LED indicator shows a steady white colour, the Vuse device is fully charged and the charging cable should be disconnected.
The Vuse device will automatically stop charging after 3 hours.
Good to know
Your Vuse device may run out of charge before the pod is empty, so do not automatically discard the pod while charging the device, as there may still be e-liquid remaining.
Tips for maximum battery life
- Proper storage: location, location, location. Store your vape and accessories somewhere dry at room temperature (15-25°C), avoiding direct sunlight. Whatever the nicotine strength, protecting your device from excessive temperatures and sunlight can help it function as intended. So keep everything in a drawer or cupboard and you'll be off to a good start.
- Avoid charging overnight: only charge your vape when you are in the same room to avoid the risks of short-circuiting or overheating.
- Partial charging: if possible, do not fully discharge your device. Recharging when it reaches approximately 15% can help to avoid compromising the battery life.
- Initial charging: fully charge your vape before first use to achieve optimal performance.
- After the initial charge, avoid leaving the device on the charger for longer than the time required for a full charge.
- Monitor battery indicators: monitor the LED indicators to know when to recharge
Tips and fixes for troubleshooting
Check the charging port: it should be clean and free of dust or debris.
Inspect the charging cable: look for any visible damage and test it with another device if necessary.
Check the USB power source: try different USB ports or power sources to rule out problems with the power outlet.
Examine the battery and contacts: look for signs of damage, rust or corrosion. Clean gently with a soft, dry cloth if necessary.
Dealing with water damage: if your device gets wet, dry it thoroughly before attempting to use it again.
Battery maintenance: four easy tips
Avoid complete discharges: try not to let your battery run completely flat, as this can reduce its lifespan. Recharge it when it reaches around 15%.
Use the correct charger: always use the charger supplied by the manufacturer to avoid compatibility issues and potential damage.
Regular cleaning: Keep the battery contacts clean for a good connection and efficient charging.
Temperature control: Store your vape and battery at room temperature, avoiding excessive heat or cold
