Evolution-X E-Cigarette User's Guide
By Scott McKirahan
The instructions that come with an Evolution-X e-cigarette starter kit are so bad, we don't even include
them in the packages anymore. Instead, we provide the following user's guide that we created, which
we think explains things in a much clearer and more detailed way:
Charging the Batteries of your Evolution-X E-Cigarette
Although many people think that a brand new Evolution-X e-cigarette battery should be completely
charged before it is ever used, this is not based upon any known sound electronic theory as it relates to
lithium ion batteries. Lithium ion batteries do not have a "memory" so there is no reason to follow the
charging practices of old with e-cigarette batteries.
The fact is, when you first get an e-cig battery, you will not be the first person to charge it anyway; the
factory always puts either a full or partial charge in batteries to test them before boxing them up and
shipping them out.
It should be noted, however, that lithium ion batteries tend to last longer if they are not completely
drained every time before they are charged. We realize this is especially hard to judge – especially with
a very small battery like the Evolution-X has.
Also keep in mind that if the factory just charged the battery enough to test it, it will not produce quite
as much vapor as a fully charged battery will and, of course, it will not last very long before needing to
be recharged. You really should charge your batteries before using them when you first get your kit but
if you absolutely must play with your “new toy,” go ahead and take a few puffs using one of the
batteries before putting it on the charger to get its first good charge.
When an Evolution-X e-cigarette battery loses its charge completely it will blink a dozen times or
more. Any further attempts at using the battery will be futile. When that happens, it's definitely time to
charge your Evolution-X battery as follows:
1. Attach the USB charger's cord to the USB port in the AC wall plug. You can also skip this step
and plug your Evolution-X charger's cord directly into a computer or any other device's
powered USB port. Keep in mind, however, that it will take considerably more time to charge
an Evolution-X battery from the lower powered USB port than it does from an AC wall outlet.
2. Plug the cord into a working AC outlet (obviously, you don't need to do this if you are going to
be charging your Evolution-X battery from a computer or other USB device). The light on your
charger should turn green, indicating that it is getting power.
