I'm guessing that they're rewrapped vtc3's, with an extra 5amps tacked on for marketability.

I have no interest in them, just thought it was strange that tygertyger would be pimping cells of questionable origin and safety to us... Especially when we all know there aren't any 35amp continuous cells being manufactured by actual legitimate battery manufacturers.

Vtc3s are 1600mah those are marketed as 1500mah.

Good eye martin! I missed that little detail. Can't imagine they'd intentionally decrease the claimed mah if they were rewrapping the sony's.

That makes these cells all the more curious... Or potentially dangerous, depending on how you look at it.

They say "authentic VAPPOWER" but does that mean authenticly made or authentically rewrapped? I don't know really anything about this company but I doubt they make their cells...if they do please correct me so I can not spread misinformation...that is the last thing I want to do...

But keep in mind that LG has that new battery out the HB6 that is a 1500mah 30 amp battery and I find it curious that these are now popping up at Fasttech around the same time....once again I DON"T KNOW ANYTHING about this company...but if I was one to make foolish assumptions...time will tell.

Yeah I'm betting these are LG's (hopefully anyway).

We tested the Vappower 26650 and it was grossly overrated, so we stopped evaluating Vappower at all based on that.

I would have to agree with everyone else and say the LG HB6, at least I hope they are for whatever poor bastard actually buys these.

Authentic rewraps huh? This whole battery nonsense is getting old. I buy samsung, lg and Sony only. Fuck the rest of these dirtbag companies.

I agree wholeheartedly and only stick to these three as well. Why ANYONE would pay more for a rewrap of a B bin battery is beyond comprehension, I suppose some people just don't know better and believe whats on the wrappers.

Maybe LG HB2?
