That's a great question that I can not give an answer to. I was referring to the idea of taking 2 batteries you had married and used all the time and then suddenly putting them in a 3 battery mod with 1 additional brand new battery.
...it's dangerous to use batteries; they were never designed to be used outside of a protected battery pack so it's dangerous to vape on them.
It was. now the vtc6 and 30q perform better at 20amp for a 300mah battery
At 20 amps for a 3000 mAh battery, the Sony VTC6 perform better than BOTH the Samsung 30Q AND the LG HG2 according to Mooch, albeit the differences between these three choices are small. I have no idea why, but a lot of people seem to be having a really very difficult time trying to understand the difference between "was" and "is", and, as a matter of true fact, his favorite choice for high drain battery is, and has been for more than a year and a half, the Sony VTC5A (which I expect he will be replacing with the Sony VTC6A in a not too distant future because, IIRC, that is exactly what he has been saying as of late).
YES but this is not to say the hg2 is a bad battery now, just that sony and samsung came out with batteries with the same amps and mah and they outperform the hg2. I bought a dozen or so hg2s before the 30qs were available. I haven't stopped using them. In fact that's all I have except 4 25rs. But when I need to start replacing them I will more than likely get som VTC6s unless a new battery hits the market between now and then that outperforms them. I vape at or below 50 watts so 20amp is plenty for me and the extra mah is nice.
Completely agree.
I'm not saying people should stop using them before they are worn. Just that, when people need to buy new batteries, then if having to decide between those three choices, the VTC6 performs best... end of (old) story. A lot of people have been coming up with the typical excuse that the difference in performance is too small to be able to justify the price difference and whatnot. But the reality is that batteries are dirt cheap so skimping on batteries just to save a few cents per day is kind of really stupid unless you really need those few cents because you're already forced to eat top ramen every day or something like that. The performance of your batteries also affects the performance of your mod, which in turn affects everything else as well. As a result, the price gap has to be put in THAT perspective, rather than keep looking at how many percent extra a certain choice of battery costs versus another choice. People usually spend more on cotton than they spend on batteries. Think about that for one small second.
Hopefully the VTC6A will hit the consumer market before then. It's not the end of the world when people buy the HG2 despite they could very easily have gotten the VTC6 instead, but knowledge is power so now that we already know that the VTC6 is the better performer, both versus the 30Q and versus the HG2, well... it is what it is, so...
His latest choices seem to be the VTC6 and VTC5A.
