Am I having just terrible luck with batts or could there be something wrong?

So last week I posted the issue with my Aw batt, I ordered new batts ultrafire lc's and things were fine. Today I put in a fully charged ultrafire and it died within like 5 hours. Am I just having a bad time with batts or could something wrong with the SB be killing the batteries? I'm just using 18650's with resurrectors if that matters.

If the SB were to be causing it you would notice a major drop in performance. I know with some UF batts I would only get 5-7 hours with a LR carto before I would feel the need to swap batteries. That is one reason why I switched to the AW 2900 batteries. Get an easy 8-10 on LR before I feel the need to swap batteries.

Excellent. I'm getting rad performance from the other UF batt, I'm guessing it's a bad one. I picked up both a aw ic 2900 mah and a aw imr high drain from lighthound to fix the problem. On to better batts!

Aren't the resurrectors 1.7? This will lessen the battery time also.

so i picked up a multi meter and took a reading of a fresh charged battery in the silver bullet and it hit a consistent 4.1/2 with out a load. good. The dead battery was still eeking out around 2.9/3 without a load. I still am getting abysmal vape time with my 2400 mah 18650's like less than 5 hours. Can't wait for the Aw high drain to get here. If it performs well I'll pick up a few more.

Wow. These AW IMR batts are really really awesome. I vape LR all the time and they really do put out a consistent vape with very little drop off. Of course this is compared to my UF's which really weren't good at all.
