@dosda4 101vape is having an LG battery sale and it is a reputable US company. A good choice for you, and comparable to the Samsung 25r, is the LG HE4 - 2500 mAh and a 20 Amp CDR (The site calls it a 35 Amp which is kinda misleading cuz thats the Pulse rating and they mention CDRs on other batts). $9 bucks a pair with $1.99 for shipping - LG HE4 18650 35 amp 2500 mah battery (pair) - 101 Vape. They also have some Sony VTC4s, which are rated at 30 amps continuous, for the same price. Those are only 200mAh though...
My HE4s are still running strong after a year....
Oh, and stear clear of the HG2s (I know 3000mAh looks pleasing) because this: Counterfeit/Low Grade LG HG2 Test Results

Good call on that HG2s. I am running them in my RXs and they are great. But I got real ones, with matte rings. @LilWhiteClouder is correct: steer clear of the HG2s until this is resolved somehow. The Samsung 30Q is an excellent replacement.
now the next question, i only get a usb charger cable without adapter. this cable is to charge the Eleaf iStick TC 60W. can i use my iphone adapter or somehting else to charge the box mod with the samsung 25r in it?
(sorry for the bad english)
(sorry for the bad english
)or can i use this old bad boy i have this home: Energizer Accu Recharge Universal Battery Recharger
You need to figure out what milliwatt hours the new one requires ad see if your iPhone charger puts out enough. If not, you need a new wall wart.now the next question, i only get a usb charger cable without adapter. this cable is to charge the Eleaf iStick TC 60W. can i use my iphone adapter or somehting else to charge the box mod with the samsung 25r in it?

the output from my charger is 5v 2.0A but i dont know what the batterys required... (samsung r25)
Are you in the UK @dosda4
If you have the usb cable, then (in this case) the UK Apple Wall USB would work.
Unless you have a good PC, stick with the wall adapter.

2 amps is probably good. That will do for most of them. The issue is not what the batteries require, it is what the charger board uses. That information should be in the manual or available online.
