14500 batts?

[sbphotog]

I just ordered a box mod from madvapes that takes a 14500 batt. madvapes is sold out of these batts. is there anywhere else that sells them?

would these work? Protected UltraFire 14500 AA sized 3.6V Li-Ion Rechargeable Battery 900 mAh CR14500 Lithium Ion

Those would work. I just bought 4 Trustfire brand 14500s at ebay for just under $15 including shipping and it only took 10 days from China. I can attest they are not forgeries. Here's the link to the ones I purchased.

Thank you for the link, Qbass.
I just pulled the trigger on these. I like back-ups for my back-ups.

I use AW IMR 14500's in my madvapes 3.7 volt box mod as well as their VV box mod. The IMRs are shorter than Li-ion batteries sold on madvapes' website and fit in the mod better than protected batteries (protected Li-ion batteries fit very tight). I would assume that any IMR would fit better in these mods as the IMRs have no protection circuit and are almost always shorter than protected batteries. IMRs also perform better and are a safer battery chemistry

I do have to agree in the IMR batteries. I use 2 14500 in my 5 V box and during checks the IMR's don't drop quite as much. While I still use both the IMR and protected, I ony use the protected while the IMR's are charging. I just haven't pulled the switch on two more yet. Good luck with the box!!
