Hey everybody, I am new amongst the ranks of the epoch owners. I just got mine this weekend and I like it but I only get about five minutes of a charge. I see some people get seven to eight. Any advice on increasing run times. It is a spec-2 and a fresh set of batteries in the charger. Can you double charge them like a bit? Or is there something else to do?

The more u use it the longer it gets, I get abt 10 mins, gonna upgrade soon to 4-batts, dont knw if it increases the play time, but I knw it increases the speed......... :cool:

I was thinking about the 4 bat mod too but I dont want to mess anyhting up. I was also told I could double charge it and that helps the run times too.

mine is new too. I have a 4cell mod.

on single charge i get 5 min.

double charge i get 9 min

I installed a 100mah cell for my 4th, I am getting the real 4cell pack soon so they'll all be 120 mah. I expect run time won't change too much, though.

Still, run tme is pretty good compared to my bro's 1/10 scale that he charges for 15 min, and plays for 7 min.
