Help with Batteries...

I'm about to buy three or four more batteries for some more mods I ordered. Right now I am currently vaping a Vaporesso Nebula 100W and Also have a Vaporesso Target and Vaporesso Attitude...and have the Vaporesso Tarot 220W on the way. I first got into vaping not to long ago...and when we bought these at our local shop they said the efest batteries were the best so I bought those...however now I've read there not. Then I looked at Moochies battery list and he has one on there....so then I wonder are they? I have tried to research this myself but so many opinions....one says this is the best and another says its dangerous. Can anyone help me??

I need one 26650 for my Nebula, then the rest 18650s

Used for subohm vaping. I run the baby beast....15ohm coils, Veco and Ego tanks from Vaporesso at .4 and .5 ohms. Mods are the Nebula 100w, Target 75w, Tarot 220w, attitude 80w...all from Vaporesso.

Any help with what the best battery would be would be much appreciated.

26650. Use the iJoy. Awesome battery.

18650, use 25R or 30Q

for 26650 the ijoy is by far the best and liionwholesale.com carries them which is a trusted battery site

for the 18650 batts go with the Samsung 30q if you vape under 150 watts. if you vape 150 or over get the Sony VTC5a

As posted above for the 26650 nothing is holding a candle up to the new Ijoy 26650 battery atm.

Remember this formula to also determine the best battery for your application

(Watts You Will Be Running/Lowest Voltage of the Battery Signal)/90% Mod Chipset Efficiency=Maximum Amps you will pull at lowest voltage
Voltage remember most regulated multi-battery mods run in "Series", series battery sleds multiply Voltage X Number of Batteries but maintain the Mah and Amps of a single battery, generally most mods auto shutdown at about 3.2v per battery on average

Seen you listed a 220watt device above so example in a dual battery configuration

220watts/6.4v=34.375 amps, divide that by 0.9 or 90% = 38.1944444444 maximum amps <- No battery has either one of these amp ratings

Formula can also be reversed

30amps X 90% = 27amps X 6.4v = 172.8watts maximum

Dual battery 18650
Up to 120 watts -> Samsung 30Q (3000mah 20amps)
Upto 150watts -> Sony VTC5A (take note of the "A", this model is 2500mah and 25amps compared to the older VTC5 which is 20amps and 2600mah)
Upto 180watts -> LG HB2, 4, or 6 (1500mah 30amps CDR) *note, no dual battery mod can safely achieve over 180watts unless you are swapping out at higher watts, and second note, no battery in the 18650 market realm has a higher CDR than these batteries, any says higher on its label is a maximum Pulse Discharge Rate which is dangerous without knowing the number of milli-seconds or seconds that pulse can be maintained and the rest cycle between those pulses, so we use CDR not PDR for safety.

Triple Battery 18650 Series
Upto 180watts -> Samsung 30Q
Upto 215watts -> Sony VTC5A
Upto 260watts -> LG HB2, 4, or 6

I would add the VTC5A right now is THE hardest hitting 18650 battery of them all. So if you don't need that 30 amps per battery and you don't need the battery to be 3000 mAh (because you're going to carry a pair of spare batteries with you anyway in the first place), then clearly the VTC5A rules, and, in my RX300 it rules even much harder.

Thank you for the correction guys --- I meant to put the VTC5A instead of the 25R but was doing it from the road... the fingers were typing faster than the brain was thinking. Yes --- VTC5A --- damn good battery.
