That's an extra 50 mm over the 14500. I'm really interested but I just had my very first ever spring collapse last week. I would love to see pics of the stacked batteries in a Mini before committing. Sure hope it works out. Lot of us HV vapers out here.

If it were an extra 50mm they would be twice as long as a 14500 .... that wouldn't work :)
A single 14500 is only 50mm
they are exactly the same by the spcecs

they are 14250 meaning they are 25mm long each so two would be 50mm
14500 is 50 mm long as well.

So the 14500 is basically 2 inches long and these are 1 inch each :)

win + win = winning

Please report back what your run time is with these batts when you have had them long enough to give an average. If they last more than an hour of moderate vaping I'll be surprised at 200mah's. (I hope they do, because it will satisfy the "more power" reonuts)

Imagine a VV reo with a switching regulator. Those regulators can double battery life according to a lot of people. I get 2 hours at 5 volts on the little sis, with seriously heavy vaping with 2 10440s. They are only slightly bigger then these bats and thats on a linear regulator.

Oh I have imagined such a mythical beast....We need someone like parallex to put it into action.

Its been discussed here by Mr REO himself. It defeats the purpose of what he created in that he wanted them to be "simple". Of course, whatever the masses demand will, I'm sure justify a vv reo somewhere in our futures....(IF it can be made to his high standards of dependability)

Thanks and Big Duh Alice!! I forgot to drop the last 0 and needed to straighten my bent up thinking cap. I did a strike out on the original post and added a bit of edit. How embarrassing.

I have had them for a couple days, the other vendor sent me ten for free for finding and setting them up with the supplier in China so I got them a bit before they hit the shelves. I am actually surprised as you but they do last longer than an hour of moderate vaping. I am a moderate to heavy vapor and I have gotten at least an hour and a half from them and if I am not hitting it quite as often up to two and a half hours. Everyone has different vaping styles but thats how long they are lasting for me. I have already useed them in my mini and they fit just about the same as a protected 14500, they are much closer to the 25mm than the protected 3.7v 14250s. I know that these would be a pain to use all day but I am a low voltage vaper that just needs the extra oomph every once in a while when low voltage isnt quite cutting it and these work just fine for that. Its just really cool being able to run hv on such small mods no matter how long the batt life is.

Are you a all day hv person? If so then you would probably need at least 5 sets for a full day, that being said it is really nice having all thatt power is such a small package.

I have to say, I don't personally recommend that anyone actually use these with the 1.5 ohm duallys. One hit was enough for me. :facepalm:
lol, it was that bad huh? I am gigling out loud right now. I actually enjoy them with the dualies for short spurts, its kinda nice only having to hold that button for a second or two.
