[rades]

If these aren't good, what is the highest mah that are reliable?

And what are the highest amp rating AND mah that are available and also reliable?

I'm eye'ing these but I hear mixed reviews on efest, the 3100mah caught my eye.

And I've had great experiences with all my purchases from RTD...

I strictly run mechs, the only batteries I use now are AW's

I thought AW's are one of the top batteries as well?

I tested the efest re wrap idea. Turns out if they are re wrapping like the most likely are still. They aren't wrapping over old wrappings. They are now taking them off actually haha.

AW have always been rewraps of major suppliers cells and have been open about that from the start. Which cell is used varies by the battery model. Their claim to fame is that they are selecting only first bin high quality cells for rewrap. Whether that justifies the higher price is up to the buyer.

Wowwwww...a 10000 mAh 18650? The false ratings are just getting silly now.

To answer the question, you can't have both high amp rating and high mAh. So pick an amp rating then get the highest mAh available for that amp rating. What resistance are your mods?

 

[rades]

I've been running .5, because I like the 3000mah that'll last me all day, I've been using aw 18650 3000mah 20am...


I'd like to run .2 and be able to find a 2600mah, 3000 if possible...

What 25amp or 30amp batteries have the highest mah as well?

[Jon@LiionWholesale]

30A highest mAh is 2000-2100 out of the Sony VTC4.

20A you can get 2500-2600mAh out of the VTC5 or 2500mAh out of the 25R. The LG HG2 is rated 20A and has 3000mAh but it's really happier a little under 20A.

Efest discharge ratings usually should be cut in half. The 3100mAh is really more like a 5-10A battery. The Efest 3000mAh seems somewhat promising, maybe similar to the LG HG2, but again it's a 20A or ideally a bit less battery despite their 35A rating.

 

[BigNasty]

Repeating my mech mantra.
Sony, samsung, lg, mnke.

 

[MrScaryZ]

They are fine for a toy car

 

[rades]

lol. Do you ever think these companies will come out with higher amp ratings combined with higher mahs? Or is that just not feasible? I know my battery safety and ohms, just not the insides and outs of how batteries preform.

Probably not. Manufacturers don't want their batteries used for vaping, for the most part, and it wouldn't be worth the investment for such a small market full of possible liability. The high powered batteries are designed for use in packs, rather than individually...

The labels on nearly any battery cannot be trusted as accurate. They literally print whatever they want on them. Its best to just buy a real Samsung or LG, if you have a 4 bay charger the differences in mah don't matter all that much. The emphasis should be on safety. Its better (in my opinion) to buy an authentic battery with authentic numbers than to buy a re-wrap just because it claims to have longer life, or a higher amp limit. The only re-wraps i use are MXJO's, just because they've all performed outstandingly for me. Anyways, my point is that more often than not, labels are just decoration, they have little to do with the capabilities of most vaping batteries. Frighteningly enough. Good luck!

Here's a link to @Mooch battery studies. Kind of a dry read, but highly informative!! Hope it helps!!

Hey guys. Quick question though I don't wanna hijack the thread. I bought my batteries from cci, cloud chasers inc, any idea what they are? I know they are a reputable company and huge in the vaping world but wonder where the hell they are getting their batteries from?

Jon-
it says (4 pcs).... so it is 10 aH for 4 batteries total, not (each).
Misleading as hell though.
Marketing for the cell phone packs w/ interchangeable batteries.

Great Post !
Completely agree on all points, and the MXJO 3000's have become my go to batteries.

I am guessing you don't look into the big vaping events or big name cloud competitions?

I figured word of mouth would be better than going to ear plug vape ring central.

I don't go to them but I look into them. I haven't seen anything but good reviews on their box mods though.
