What difference do you see between the PF and B?For mech's my VTC 4&5's For others devices with protection built in Panasonic NCR1860PF and NCR18650B
Ultrafire .. the best!!! j/k
Don't lie Joe you know you are really rocking the Surefire 18650s
Whut, you mean there is better than Fandyfire?
How many "xxx fire" brands are out there?!?! Even a Tangsfire ...
Longer run time on the B but lower amp limit. Not a concern on a regulated device with its 6.8 amp constant and 12 amp pulse. The PF has a 10 constant and 18 amp pulse rating.What difference do you see between the PF and B?
Orbtronics is selling those for $6.99 not to shabby.My fave batt is the old CGR18650CH gray Panasonic. I got some of those that are nearly two years old and still good as ever.
Most won't have a charger capable of the 4.35 volt charge.Any of you try 18650s with a 4.35v charge capacity? Any advantages with regard to battery life between charges? And are there any issues when using one in a regulated mod that supports 4.2v charge (e.g., the Sigelei 30W)?
Xtar makes one ... http://www.mtnelectronics.com/opencart/index.php?route=product/product&path=79&product_id=279Most won't have a charger capable of the 4.35 volt charge.
I am all about the Samsung INR 20-R ... I am huge on battery testing, and the tests for this battery are very impressive. I was pissed when word got out about Samsung INR's several months ago, I used to be able to get them for under $7 bucks a pair when they were "unknown".
Where did you here about this from? Almost sounds too good to be true but one can always hope.Hey floks, I just heard of a 18650, 60 amp, 4000 mah IMR comming out. But then again, It was while I was hunting snipes......I never did catch one. Damn birds!

Snipes...heh
Sony VTC4's in my regulated and VTC5's for my mechs. @Nikkita6, how do the Samsungs compare with the VTC's? If you have a link, please share.
Not while hunting in the deep woods along a thin trail and a canvas sack! Hasn't anybody else heard of this or was I the only gullible 5 year old? Starting to seam as a waisted reference. Sorry to have waisted time here, move along, nothing to see..........Snipe is a real bird. They're a beach bird.
I got two of the 25-R's shipped in about two days for about $18 from Triangle Vapes. Great vendor IMO.
Here ya go:
Test/Review of Samsung INR18650-20R 2000mAh (Green)http://www.candlepowerforums.com/vb...eview-of-Samsung-INR18650-20R-2000mAh-(Green)
Just the test: http://lygte-info.dk/review/batteries2012/Samsung INR18650-20R 2000mAh (Green) UK.html
IMO, nobody knows more about testing batteries than HJK.
Thanks love but I already have these... you must have missed my post above where I posted screen shots of HJK's comparator.
Thanks, you're awesome Nikkita6, that's a good starting point!@Chowder, One of the battery testers that I follow does not have any tests published in his 18650 comparator for me to show a comparison of the Samsung 20R vs the Sony VTC4 however, I can show you Samsung vs Efest purple 35a (aka crapfest IMO) to give you an idea of the Samsung's performance. Such beautiful curves on the Samsung.
This test show the Samsung vs Efest 35a at only 15 & 20Amps. Samsung in the red, Efest in blue ... Samsung is the better of these two
There is another battery tester that I follow, that has published tests for the Sony VTC4, but he only tests up to 5a, and the test was against a Panny CGR.
Ah, I couldn't read the url in the image, but thought it looked familiar. Anyways, best to have the source discussion eh?
Thanks, you're awesome Nikkita6, that's a good starting point!
No, I remember well the "snipe hunting" trips out in the woods back when in Cub Scouts!Not while hunting in the deep woods along a thin trail and a canvas sack! Hasn't anybody else heard of this or was I the only gullible 5 year old? Starting to seam as a waisted reference. Sorry to have waisted time here, move along, nothing to see..........
