Going to order the silver IPV D2 tonight, which battery should I use in it?

LG HG2
LG HE4
Sam 25R
Sony VTC5
Or Other?

Ordering from Vapor DNA

Should be fine. I've been running 25Rs in my D2 with no issues. I'll put one of my HG2s in it next time I swap the battery. They are both 20A continuous.

Hg2 run significantly longer compared to my 25Rs and he4s in both of my single battery mods.

Any that you listed will work fine... although the Sony VCT5 is overkill and you would be spending more $ than necessary.

But the vct5 is the best? I dont mind spending more for better batteries. I went with the HG2 for mAh ratings, does the IPV D2 not need the 30a CDR thats recommended on VaporDNA?

Unless you're pushing the chip really hard you will be fine with HG2's. The D2 probably can't fire anything that will draw more than the 20 amp CDR. If you vape near that frequently, VTC4's are probably better. Lifespan or head room with your amp draw. You choose. I have a few VTC5's that I use for low builds in mechs, and a ton of HE2's. Both get pretty equal lifespan, and perform pretty equal. That extra 10 amps for the Sony's is there when needed, though.

I just got 6 HG2's for pairing for my dual battery boxes, first set lasted all day yesterday, I'm using the second pair now, on to the third after. I almost always have to change battery's once during the day with HE2's. Not so with HG2's. That extra 1000 MAH is nice. I have an iPV Mini 2 and it eats through batteries, so I think you're gonna be happy you got the HG2's especially for a single battery device.

^^This! I can say that the 25R is a fantastic battery, but the HG2 outlasts it significantly in the D2, by at least a couple hours in my usage.

I was also surprised how much longer the HG2s are lasting in my istick 100. Just ordered 2 more pairs. Less than 10 a pair at 101vape w code "blowout" w $2 shipping.

Authentic VCT5s are the best battery for mechanical mods or high current regulated mods... neither is the case with the D2. IMHO they are the best 18650... period. However, I don't own any. They just recently started manufacturing them again. I own HG2s, HG4s, and 25Rs.

HG4s?! What are the specs? I hope this is a typo seeing as I just order my third and fourth pairs of HG2s.

Most humble apologies... that was a typo... should have been HE4. Good catch.
Whew. I was somehow going to be upset (even though I'm really happy with these HG2s).
