Are you sure your cells are authentic?

16 minute run time x 60 seconds in a minute = 960 seconds / 2 second button presses = 480 hits/drags/puffs.

480 / 24 hr = 20 per hour
480 / 12 hr = 40 per hr or one hit every 18 seconds....

Try taking four or five breaths between vapes instead of one.

Battery should be authentic. Guessing from the battery consumption I should be right about 200 puff total.

The LG HG2 is a good 3000mah 18a ~ 20a CDR cell.

There are many counterfeit / fakes on the market, where you purchased them is important.
If from one of the few known reputable dealers chances are very good they're authentic,, from joes vape shop 50/50, from eBay / amazon less than 50%, from one of the many 'bargain' sites even less of a chance they are authentic.

Was gonna comment, but @Skunk! is here. He'll get you sorted out quite nicely. :)
If hes building he has lots of options to increase battery life while still getting really good vapor production. I get a full day out of a single 40T since I rebuilt my DR RTA. It's dual coil too (2×28/38 FC @ .35 ohms). If it is pre packaged coils there is a lot fewer options if he wants big vapor production. Most are in the super sub ohm range. It makes people new to building think the only way to get clouds is by building at .15. On a regulsted device that is simply not the case.
