Hohm Work 3077 mah vs LG HB6

[Wheelin247]

I was going to get a few LG HB6's for my mech and I was was searching the web for batteries I saw these Hohm Work 3077 mah batteries and wanted to get on here and see if anybody has used either or both and what their opinions were on the batteries before I went ahead and ordered them. Keep in mind I have found the HB6's for $4 each at illumn.com and the Hohm Work cells for $11 each from LightningVape.com. Let me know what opinions are. Any feedback is welcome!

Mooch reviewed them here: HohmLife 36.3A 3077mAh 18650 Bench Test Results...only a 20A- battery but a great one, equal to HG2

The Hohm life is $11 from lightning vapes? The LG HG2 which Mooch felt they compared with is only $6 at Illum 18650 LG 18650HG2 3000mAh High Discharge Flat Top. The HB6 in your post is only a 1500 mAh battery, so the HG2 is a better comparison.

I have 4 HG2's and I saw on the reviews of the Hohm Work cells they seem to last longer even though they are 1500 mah. I carry extra batteries with me in a case but I'm a wheelchair user and don't have a place to carry 4 cells with me so I was thinking if they last longer I could carry 1 Hohm Work cells with me and the in the mech while at work.

I'm also looking for a cell that is hard hitting when I take a vape. I have heard both the Hohm Work cells and the HB6's are hard hitting.

Seems like there is some confusion going on about the two different hohm battery offerings.

Hohm work is listed as a 2531 mah battery. 21.5 amp cdr

Hohm life is listed as a 3077 mah battery. 20amp cdr

I have a set of the hohm life batteries and the perform great in a regulated mod

I will be using them in a mech. That's why I brought it up on this thread to see if I get any feedback from people who use them in mechs. I appreciate your feedback though.

The ohmlife will not hit as hard as the HB6 in a mech neither will the HG2's.
None of the around 3000 mah batteries will hit as hard due to higher internal resistance and more voltage drop under high loads.

Thanks for the info Robert!

The HohmWork cell is supposed to be an upgraded HE2, equivalent to the HE4.
The HohmLife cell is supposed to be an upgraded HG2.

These, and the HB6, are moderately hard hitters. The VTC4, HD2, HD4, HD2C, and VTC5A hit harder with the VTC5A hitting the hardest.

I looked up the VTC5A on the interweb and there was a post about not using them in mods because of it getting too hot at the amps that it is running. Would this be a problem in a mech?

No battery gets hot if used within its capabilities. You can use any battery in any mod if you stay within its ratings. This makes some batteries a better choice than others. The VTC5A is an incredible 25A 2500mAh battery.

Could you post a link to that post you're referring to?

I was looking at it earlier this morning at work. I don't have that page open anymore and I looked for it and couldn't find it. Sorry.

Would you recommend the HD2C or the VTC5A for a hard hitting and lasting battery?

 

[Wheelin247]

Yeah I saw that in an email

Just picked up a set of the Hohm Lifes and a Hohm Grown 26650 I love my Hohm Works.
