Those batteries should be fine.
the charger not so much.
Nitecore i2 or i4, lu charger or xtar charger.

That charger you have listed is going to take FOREVER to charge one battery, let alone 2.

Check out 101vape.com or sunvapor for batteries and chargers.

Those batteries are NOT ok. They are 10 amp continuous and 20 amp pulse. The charger sucks. Forget using that vendor. The vendors big nasty suggested are trusted. Orbtronic is another.

But she's gonna be using them in a regulated device.
Seems to me they would be just fine.
Why wouldn't they be good for her device?
In a mech I would say no.
Just curious why you say that.

Regulated devices have a max input current. The batteries need to meet or exceed that number. A 10 amp battery does not meet or exceed that number for that device.

The maximum input current for the ipv3 is 30 amps. Since the batteries are in series and current is common in series, you should use a matched pair of batteries that have a 30 amp continuous discharge rating if you want to be certain you're safe no matter how hard you push it.

@TaraVapeZ the 20r and 25r are rock solid, but do not know for an ipv3 I think they are the ones a ton of 50watt plus users are actually using.

Doesn't it also say max input current is 30amps? That's what I've found in a few places. It also says input voltage is over 6 volts which means batteries are in series. To cover the max input current you'd need a pair of matched 30amp cdr batteries. I would email eciggity and ask why the info they provide contradicts itself. Just my opinion.

HE4's?! Are these new?

Edit: Wow. Never been to that site before. They have about every battery you could want. Good prices too. You made any purchases from them?

Yep, I've been buying from them for a while. Very good prices. The HE4's are a solid replacement for the Sony VTC5, they've been out for about 3-4 months now. I use em on my mechs. Forget the Vamped brand, they just re-wrap LG's and others.
