    Not really worth the effort but you could use a mod to bring it down.

    ModBox, As it says above, it’s being updated. A table with old recommendations I can no longer make is useless. :-) GrmpyOldMan I hope in the next few weeks to have the table redone. Answering a couple hundred messages a day, doing the testing, doing the videos, doing the research....all of...

    I don't have any recommendations for a battery with a durable wrap as all weren't made for this kind of use. :-) Two battery mod? At 80W you're running at 40W per battery and can use 30Q's, VTC6's, or HG2's.

    Sorry, no charger recommendations yet. Samsung 30Q or VTC6 are your best bet.

    At 15W or 1.2 ohms in a mech the NCR18650GA's are your best choice with VTC6's, 30Q's, or HG2's being a good second choice. But if you need button top batteries they might be hard to find in a button top version. Try www.imrbatteries.com

    I don't know the condition of your batteries but assuming they have been well cared for you can use them up to about 75W each. What is making you worried about them now if they have been working well, without issues?

    Yes. If they're not getting hotter during use then keep using them until they're too frustrating to use anymore due to reduced performance.

    This recommended batteries table? It doesn't change until I find other batteries to recommend. :-) Until then this is the latest, up-to-date version.
