18350 lovin...

[milescadre]

so Mooch here has made some very awesome reviews and testings of alot of 18650s (from what I've seen)

But does anyone know if we have any good testings and reviews on 18350s? I know theyre not common, but I do love my hammer, and am intrigued to see such tests and results!

Flashlights actually sometimes pull similar current to what we expect of 350s, so the results there are fairly relevant, though he doesn't tend to put out info on cell temp/CDR truthiness.

The flashlight forums may have some reviews, but I'm not aware of any other places to see reviews or independent testing. 18350 is not a popular size battery for vaping purposes, mainly because of its low amp output and lower capacity.

I knooooow, but I cant resist mah hammer =P I've been keeping sensible builds like .7-.8 in it, but I really want to know what the batteries are capible of so I can make the most optimal build

IMHO, the best 18350 battery on the market are the AW IMR 18350. 800 mah capacity with 12 amps CDR. Theoretically you could build down to around 0.5 ohm with this battery and still have a little safe headroom. At that resistance, battery life will suck though.

1.0 ohm = 4.2 amp draw
0.9 ohm = 4.6 amp draw
0.8 ohm = 5.2 amp draw
0.7 ohms = 6 amp draw
0.6 ohms = 7 amp draw
0.5 ohms = 8.4 amp draw
0.4 ohms = 10.5 amp draw
0.3 ohms = 14.0 amp draw
0.2 ohms = 21.0 amp draw
0.1 ohms = 42.0 amp draw
0.0 ohms = dead short = battery goes into thermal runaway

I use loads of 18350's, luv em (I rarely go below .8)
AW's are great ofc, but I also got good results from these:
Tensai 18350 IMR (14A)

Agree. The blue Tensai are great. Perform well in the tests at Dampfakkus.

Have one of these batteries just because I wanted to shorten up my mech. Battery will work with .5ohm build but battery life is VERY Short. Wasn't watching close one day and I drained it down to 3.0v real quick but it came back nicely.

I build my atomizers to 1.2ohm to 1.3ohm and I go through about four of the older AW IMR 18350s (700 mAh) per day.
