Thanks, lol..
I'm in bad need of a couple 18650s. I had some but they got lost or probably most likely threw away by mistake. If anybody has a good set I'd trade a drop dead Atty to some. The Atty is a clone but it hits good its green in color.
Sorry for posting this here, kinda desperate

I wouldn't recommend buying second-hand batteries 18650 aren't that expensive can you get a good set for about 12 - $13

Bro you really gotta listen. You just got fucked. For 18 dollars you got batteries good enough for a flashlight

Liionwholesale, IMR and there's another one I can't remember. Trusted vendors. If I was you I'd email them back with all the info you can on that battery and demand your money back. Selling far underrated batteries. Best deal isn't always the best option. Those molicel's mentioned above are less than 6 a piece. But legit from a legit vendor.

I read the reviews before I purchased these battery's, guess reviews don't mean shit. Probably company employees giving reviews of there own damn product to gain customers. Those mother fuckers man. I should have done more reviewing on google!

Transaction has already went through. There's nothing I can do except email them, and if they don't answer me back I'll have to contact PayPal. And by then I'll probably have the batteries,lol. Looks like I'll have to go to the doller store and buy me a flashlight. :)

18650batterystore and orbtronic are two solid vendors with great prices. With batteries your best bet is to stick with batteries from Sony, LG, Samsung, or Sanyo. They make their batteries so you don’t have to play the crapshoot of rewraps. They can switch the cell underneath the wrap and you’d never know. The big four batteries are usually cheaper also and as long as you buy from a good vendor, you can trust you are buying a solid cell. If you can’t cancel your order those cells would still be good enough for a mtl setup vaping at low watts.

U just start getting into this lifestyle right? this will become more than just a hobby... trust me. When I first started vaping 3 years ago I found a guy selling six batteries for $20 on let go I was excited I bought them . Come to find out like yours they were just regular Flashlight batteries wouldn't even fire up a mod I laughed about it but then learned my lesson l. Sometimes taking an l is more of a learning tool than an embarrassment. I'm still a rookie compared to some of these guys here they have taught me a lot and I know I have taught a lot to people just coming into it so don't ever be afraid to ask a question and if you're uncertain about a purchase ask about that too

I bought one of these thorfire flashlights that takes a 14500 cell for $10 on a lightning deal a few weeks back and it’s a really good tiny bright flashlight. Here’s one that takes an 18650 so those cells would be perfect and besides you could always use a flashlight.

Super annoying. Ha ha ha. Nah you're golden man. And it's all a learning process. Research research research. If I see a mod for sale the first thing I do is Google known issues with it. That way I know what to look for. Then shop around price wise. If it's new that is. Although I will pay more for stateside products cuz I get them faster. Used products just be mindful that when stuff sits, sometimes it leaks. Mainly squonks. But you can clean them up and vape on. I'm still learning too. I get lost in voltage drop convos in the mech threads.

I'm really new in this game and I've learned a lot here, and a lot on Mooch's YouTube (search battery mooch) page. Check it out; he has a TON of vids on batteries. Start with his Battery Basics for Vapers series. Good resource.

And good luck with your flashlight.

Just one last thing and I'm done too. I got ahold of the sales staff and I got them to switch to the Hohm life 3000mAh I used to have some of those and they were good batteries. So you can reverse that face palm buddy.

Starting this to clean up a sale thread that got bombarded by us chatty folks. But prime example of needing research. In no way am I trying to shame anyone. We all have our own stories. We've all been there I'm sure. Research research research .

Man I really hope this doesn't offend you. I didn't mean that in any way by starting this thread. My post was supposed to be at the top and I fucked it up while moving everything last night. But everyone of us has some story. Hell I just paid a lot on ebay for a used mod. I pray I dont get a rock. I'm glad you were able to get some better batteries man. If you ever have any questions just ask. 99 percent of the people here won't steer you wrong. Helping people is what makes Vapingunderground thrive.

Lol I was making fun of myself if y'all go back and re read my posts. Naw man I didn't take any offense what so ever its a lesson learned. I'm just glade that I got in touch with customer care of mahbatteries and had them to switch to a different set of batteries. The set I had them switch to iv used before and they are really good batteries. My skin is thick so don't worry! Sometimes my replies may come off as hateful but its just my weird sense of humor.
Guess I'll see if they switched my batteries for me when they get delivered.
