18650 battery question

[madstabber]

What 18650 battery are you using and how long does it last? I ask this because I am curious how long people are getting out of their specific battery to see what the best performing battery is.

I am using a cgr18650ch panasonic flat-top on a sigelei zmax and I am getting 26 hours out of a fully charged battery.

What are you getting?

I have the aw 18650 IMR high drain batteries on my provari v2.5, it lasts me throughout the whole day. Not too shabby

I ran mine its first time (Panasonic 18650 2600 mah) and it ran for 28 hours of moderately heavy vape action before before running out.

I've got an IMR 18650 2000mah in my vv Gripper. I get about 1 1/2 days.

My Provari is either in my hand, on the table, or in my pocket all day for quick access. I vape around 4-5ml a day.

My AW 18650 IMR 2000mah batteries last from first thing in the morning until bedtime pretty consistently. I'm still using and rotating the same 4 batteries I bought in April of last year with no sign of slowing down.

I get about 8-10 hours out of AW IMR 18650 2000 mAh batteries in both my Lavatube and Provari. But then, I chain-vape.

With my Panasonic (CGR18650CH) that seems to last me about 15 hours. I would say heavy vaping going thru about 4ml of juice a day. My drags usually hit the cut off on my Vamo. But one fully charged battery gets me thru the day. Last couple weeks been using a 3ohm single coil. When I was using a dual 2ohm, I would need a second battery towards the very end of the night.

I also use the Panasonic CGR18650CH & they last at least 24 hours of HEAVY use. I always flip them out every morning as I understand it's best not to run them down all the way. Just me & BTW, at this point, IMHO I think they're the best ones out there.

I get about 18 hours with my Orbtronic wrapped 2250 mah hybrid Pannys and about 16 with my AW IMR 2000 mah batteries. I use them in unregulated devices with 1.6-1.8 ohm clearos and vape about 5ml/day.

I have these as well as AW IMR 18650's, definitely prefer the Panasonics. Best battery life (in terms of total power delivered over the lifespan of the battery) is to run them down about halfways before recharging. This would be at roughly 3.5V.

I have the factory Samsung 2600mah and its decent.
Just bought a Panasonic 3400mah see if it holds the voltage better and provide decent current.

Hi Speed - I've been looking at that Panny & also the 3100. Have you used it yet & what do you use it in?
