26650mnke telltell signs of Fake?

[SLIPPY_EEL]

as the title ^^

the reason i ask is that i got some from fleabay today and i like to push my batteries but have never looked into this with these ones before.

the only thing i have seen with fake mnke's is something to do with the print being made up of dots and this was with 18650's so i'm in the dark so far

Same rules apply from the 18650's to the 26650"s also look at the ur symbol, it should be just as thick as the "M" symbol
But you should also know that MNKE"S are no longer even produced by the original manufacturer regardless if they are "authentic" at this point I don't trust any of the new one's and in all honesty that is why they are no longer even a "recommended" battery

thanks bro, exactly the same as yours even down to the MH number.

These are hard time's for us trying to get by on scrappy batteries, do you push yours on low ohm builds?

I do but what I so is not considered generally "safe" ....that being said and assuming you know all you need to know about batts and building and mods and such...I feel comfortable down to a .07 MAX (not advisable long term use just LOWEST I would go) preferably around like a .15 I feel comfortable all day vaping BUT I also test every new battery I get lower and lower constantly taking it out to see if it has gotten any warmer and measuring voltage drop to see if it dips significantly...I am .... retentive...if you don't feel like doing all that to be "safe" than just don't build below .2 and you SHOULD be fine...anything you do to yourself is your responsibility, I just answered the questions that YOU asked lol

Theoretically these are a 60 amp pulse so using a vaping calculator like vapecalc.com can be a huge help on what YOU feel comfortable with but also bear in mind they may be a 60 amp pulse but ONLY a 20 amp continuous rating on these...honestly my 18650 batts have better continuous other than my purple efest lol (for my 26650's)

Thanks again buddy and thanks for looking out for us, yup i do exactly as you do with batteries as in the ohmage and feeling things out before jumping in and some batteries sag a lot in power when pushed to much hence my question on it

i been enjoying 0.07 ohm on my parallel box mod with 18650 purple efest 35A so im happy i can pretty much do the same with the 26650's i have here, But it feels like these purple 18650 efests sag at 0.1, they just dont seem to hit hard enuff at this low.

I am also gonna say here that no one should copy anything said here

Yeah, voltage sag on purple's under or at a 0.1 build but I usually build with those at around a 0.15 and they hit harder than my MNKE's

yes you are right, i'm always reaching for the parallel 18650 with the purp efest over the other two 26650 mod's i have, i'm gonna take my foot off the peddle a little and try to find that sweet spot for these batteries.

i just wish i wouldnt have to keep creeping to higher wattage to get my fix
