I've pretty much decided to go with the SS Vamo V2 and an AGA rba of some sort, as a heavy vaper would 2 18350s equate usage wise to an 18650? Not for use stacked but, to shorten the device. One dies exchange with the other... I already have a light saber on my utility belt and would hate to accidentally grab my APV in the heat of battle whilst thwarting some supper villain!

the mAh on the battery will tell you how long it lasts as different batteries are rated for different mAh's... and the vamo won't fire if you build the coil on the AGA too low, if i remember right it let me fire as low as 1.2ohms (sometimes)

Meaning faster battery drain correct?

Short answer, NO.
You'll need at least 3-4 18350 imr 800mAh used individually to equal one 18650 imr 2200mAh.

The larger battery lasts me almost a whole day. 2 800 used individually barely get me into the the early evening. As they should given the larger battery is well, larger..

I think it also correlates with total size. Higher capacity last longer or drain slower. Two 800 stacked in extension mode will last longer than the same two 800s used individually in short build.

Someone can explain it better...

to keep it short, if you're ok with carrying spare batteries in your pocket, just take along 1 or 2 extra batteries in a carrying case and take a perm marker and label them 1, 2, 3 etc, how long they last depend on how you vape, higher mAh batteries last longer but eddieadams is right, however im with you, i like it in SHORT mode.

The mah is only part of the story for how long a battery will last, the voltage or wattage set and the ohms of your juice delivery system also play a major role and chain vaping will shorten it even more.

Now I don't use vv or vw, but in a mechanical the 18350s will last me about 4 hours with a 1.4 ohm coil

I may just need to buy the tube and see what the actual size is... I've seen a lot of places where folks state it's smaller than they thought when it arrives. My original kit claims to be 1300 mah and I was told it would "probably" last me all day, it does, and then some. Anyone have suggestions on the best place to buy both items in one place?
