re wrap batteries.

[alistair reid]

I read about Enery Vap batteries 3000mAH 35amp Tests on here.
I have a Cloupor GT 80w. + an Aspire sub ohm tank.
A vendor sold me 2 of these very same batteries last Friday at a cost of 32€.
I now have my doubts about them ( batteries )
Am i right to be doubtful.

never heard of them and no I wouldn't trust them. Stick only with Authentic Sony, Samsung or LG batteries for Vaping. No 18650's are over 30a period and "if" it's actually 3000 mAh they're 18-20a at best.

Bottom line how can you trust a company's products that lie?

Does the vendor you bought them from accept returns? Because they charged you more for re-wraps than it would cost to buy authentic batteries from the brands r055co mentioned in the post above mine.

Yup be cautious when in doubt play it safe. Wish I knew some trusted vendors in the uk but since I don't you'll have to do a bit of research and only buy from them.

You only have to ask.

You were sold batteries of dubious quality and unknown but almost certainly poor performance for a beyond extortionate price. You shouldn't be paying more than 7 euros for a good quality 18650.
My recommendation would be to get a Samsung 30Q, Samsung 25R or an LG HG2 from a trusted vendor. I'm not sure what country you are in so will have to do some research and googling yourself.

Many thanks to you all for your information & advice.... Re Energy vap batteries
Yes i thought at 32€ for two 18650 Energy Vap 3000mah 35amp was a bit of a rip off.
The shop is one of the largest in my town ( La Rochelle. France ).
As for guarantee's i think it only lasts till you walk out the shop door
Well we live & learn as we say... Once bitten twice shy....
Will look to purchase 2 new LG HG2 18650 from a trusted source.
I never knew that buying some 18650 batteries
was such a minefield, clones, re-wraps counterfeit, fakes....
Looks like i'v got a lot to learn ....
I thank you all once again.

OMG - that price is actual extortion!

I dread to imagine the prices they're charging for actual kit & juice.

They have competitors in town as well, you say? o_0
