What i mean is what are the best batt brand and model to use with a SR atty... I want life span as well as the POW affect, i will be using the SR atty inside of an AFS V3... The batts i tried are the tenergy 123A RCR's allthough they are strong not very reliable. The 3.7 was way to weak and thats with a AW IMR 18650

For top quality manufacturing-
the AW batteries come well recommended, of course..
I like a couple of the AW Lifepo4 3.2V blue batts for 6V, work great in my ggts with a standard joye 510 in the UFS.
Or occasionally 2 AW 16340 3.7V high drains, youch! (not w/ a SR atty though!)
their 18650's are all i use for 3.7V..but i've been doing 6V more lately as well..
I've been using these batts for a year now with no issues at all, and they have that pow. I am far from a battery expert, to say the least, but they do seem to provide steady power over the whole usage cycle instead of dropping off as much as li-ions seemed to, imo..:blush:

6V (using two 3.2V LiFePo4 batteries)...go with the AW 3.2V LiFePO4 RCR123A. using a single 18650 will last you the longest, but like you said you want something with more pop. one thing you can try is to remove the bottom spring and just sit the battery on the end cap post. the spring adds resistance, and if you like this setup but want a spring in there you can grab another one, preferably brass or copper later on. and if that doesn't give you the pop you want, it may be worth it to just grab some LR attys with that battery rather than change the batteries up. it is a great battery after all.

7.4V using two AW IMR18350 batteries (or even two AW IMR16340s or AW ICR16340s), will last longer than the 6V option, but you'll need to change atomizers and get something like 4.2 to 5Ω like a JOYE HV5 or HV6 510 atty to resemble the heat generated from a 6V setup with a standard atty. using your standard atty at 7.4V will almost certainly cause it to die prematurely if not instantly.
