So I just got some big ole 26650 batteries and have used 18350s and 18650s for most of my 2 year vaping career ...
I really love the recharge on the 18350s cause I can throw them in the charger when I get home from work and they are recharged before bedtime.
The 18650s take much more time, like ~6-8 hours in my charger, the 26650s even longer...
Now I have heard terms like battery memory, and know they have a lifetime of XXX number of recharge cycles.
What would be the ramifications of charging up these big batteries over 2 or 3 evenings???
I don't want to do unsupervised charging. I have a played with rc airplanes and had a cheap chinese 750mah 7v battery flame out on me (don't try this at home, almost like magnesium burning...)
If I charged the batteries for 3 hours one night, 3 hours the next, and then topped it off on the 3rd day, would that count as 3 recharge cycles or only one (considering it charging bottom to top) ???
