Fake or Real?

[TheRaiden]

Hi all. I bought 4pcs of Sony VTC5A's from vapeemporium.com
I´m getting half a day out of them on .5 ohm at 45watts, about 100 puffs.
All the markings on the battery check out on the "battery bro" website.

Just wondering if this is a normal run-time for this battery and if anyone knows how reliable this vendor is ?

What device? I use VTC5A's in my alien and 2 fully charged batteries can get me through a 16 hour shift at an average of 35 watts.

I'm a man, and I can change, if I have to, I guess.

I have the Smok G-Priv. Also, when i received the battery's they had very little charge 2.9 - 3.0 volts

All my batteries come almost depleted. I fully charge them before using them. The 4 that I rotate seem to last a lot longer than yours, but I couldn't see the specs checking out OK if they were fake. If you can, I'd try ordering a couple from a different vendor (illumn is where I get all mine from, they can be trusted) and see how they perform.

The problem is that IMR, Illumn, Liion wholesale and more don't send batteries to Iceland, hence the reason to buy from vapeemporium.com

Damn. Guess I should have checked your location first, lol.

I stand corrected, Illumn do now ship to Iceland

:Add to cart

Awesome. I love shopping from them. I just ordered 6 Samsung 30Q's, 20 wraps and a nitecore I4 all for less than $50 US.

I get about 6 hours vaping at 10W/2 ohms on most of my single battery mods with Sony VTC6, Samsung 25R, and LG HG2. It's probably the electronics overhead. Some mods just eat more battery power for the electronics than others.

The VTC5's aren't that much different than the VTC6. Half a day at 45W isn't that bad, but my old Koopor Plus 200W dual 18650 mod would go from morning one day until mid day the next at 10W. Go figure.
