nice
do u know anythink about the sony vtc 6, they stop production right, and i never heard of the vtc 6
I personally wouldn't buy them and here is why

1) Sony issues a cease and desist for people selling their batteries http://liionwholesale.com/blogs/rev...date-best-battery-substitutes-for-sony-18650s
2) Sony is selling ti's battery division http://www.theverge.com/2016/7/28/12307202/sony-murata-battery-business-sale
3) The sony line of batteries is counter fitted a lot by cheap manufacturers

so with those 3 things in mind, i have no clue who is making these batteries and who is selling them. Genuine sony VCT5 are great batteries, but they should no longer be available for purchase, so i wonder where these came from.

Can't say anything about Sony or lg....as I only use Samsung 25Rs....have used them for over 18months without issue (I have ten in total)
I vape at minimum 80amps dual parallel on an incubus mech with 6 coil builds on the so horney rda(works out around 60amps per battery)...300watts and above at the coils...
with my style of vaping the batteries barely get above room temperature....
I personally never buy any other batteries ..if it's not broke don't fix it...

Lol...like I mentioned earlier I only have experience with Samsung 25Rs....but it would be safe to say that you would be future proofing your vaping journey against higher wattages if you get the Samsung 25Rs...
This is only my personal opinion through experience with higher wattage setups...

So you now have a third choice of battery lol

no point for his mod. in his mod the 30q will operate exactly as the 25r but last longer
the 25r can be better in mechanical mods depending on your build, but for regulated mods like he has, the 30q is a better option

Can't comment on the 30qs as i have zero experience with them....but i suppose I'm not a heavy user...in ten hours I'll vape 8ml of juice...my batteries go in at 4.29 volts...when i swop them out after 10 hours they're down to 3.9 volts(my habit/ritual is get home from work and swop them out lol)

just did an order for samsung 25r's and lg hb4's.
i no longer see vtc3 or vtc4 on liionwholesales catalog so will probably not use those after i retire my current stock.
also have some ivory hb6s and theyre pretty good.
these are all cells for mechs and for subohm at 30a+, for regulated youre probably better off getting cells with higher mah capacity.
