Has Mooch ever reviewed these? I don't recognize the name. And somehow an insurance policy issued in Taiwan doesn't fill me with confidence. Maybe a US company but I can't see how it would cover the most common cause of failure, user error. That would be a giant carve out to avoid any coverage.

Edit : To self, search is your friend. Mooch did review an Ampking 21700 and believes it might be a Samsung 30T rewrap. Maybe. The performance was the same but the body seemed different. Still a rewrap by Ampking with the associated risks of a rewrapper

Yes, Mooch has approved the 20700 & 21700 Amkings. I read it in his blog here.

They don’t from what I read cover user error but they cover manufacturers defects causing accidents.

I gather the thinking is since the coverage is from Taiwan instead of China its suppose to inspire more confidence for its global claim.

Here’s Mooch’s thread on:

Ampking 30A 3000mAh 20700 Bench Test Results...accurately rated, a good 20700 battery

Bench Test Results: Ampking 40A-50A 3000mAh 21700...performs identically to Samsung 30T

I thought it would be nice to know there are other options for Mooch approved batteries.

Personally, I'm looking forward to a company taking a serious lead in providing power storage solutions for the vaping industry - honest labelling, proper quality control, and if possible, a motivated R&D department.

Just curious, what if anything, makes your batteries any SAFER than any other battery on the market? It seems to me that simply marketing a battery for vapers or as being safer doesn't necessarily mean it is actually safer than any other on the market or especially designed for vapers. That's just marketing hype.

My educated guess is the battery chemistry is the same as other brand batteries. The physical design appears to be the same as other cylindrical batteries. Offering liability insurance that doesn't cover user error doesn't seem very benefitual to me.

On the subject about honest labeling, I see Ampking advertises an 18650 battery as having 3000mAh and 40 amps max. That's hard for me to believe those specs. What is the true maximum continuous discharge rate? That's the spec that vapers are most interested in. Is it 5 amps, 15 amps, 30 amps, 40 amps? The spec sheet is confusing.

Battery pulse ratings are useless! | E-Cigarette Forum
There are no 18650 batteries with a genuine rating over 30A!​

This might sound dumb but most booms are user error. Getting legit batteries and knowing how safely use them is enough insurance for me.

I must say I don't quite know how I feel about "battery insurance." I mean, you place insurance on high risk things, kinda, like oh floods and car crashes and whatnot.

If the insurance really is going to cover my damage, well, okay but that is the kind of insurance I just hope I never have to use, also can't imagine dealing with "proof" and "collecting on my claim" from here to there, etc. I suppose it's good, or well, it's something I guess.

I still don't quite know how you prove it's not user error I mean do I have to videotape myself using and installing and whatever the batteries, because I'm going to guess that "known manufacturing defect" is going to be rather difficult to PROVE, based on pics I have seen of exploding batteries, there isn't going to be a "tell tale stain or mark" or whatever to prove the defect. IDK.

For example, not having ridiculously bad production standards... Bench Retests Results: iJoy 25A 1400mAh 20350...paper top ring, must still rate at 7A
Another thing would be QC, including testing the batteries when they come off the production line.

Thank you, I didn’t realize it was in the wrong spot until after I posted.

This one?

I think he meant the one about the warranty/guarantee in the box, lol or that's what I thought of.

I applaud them for thinking out of the box but still gonna throw a no here personally. I mean who proves what was misuse and does the insurance actually cover the injured or the company that is sued?

My family owned a business we had insurance, it covered us if sued by a customer. Not where the customer actually made a claim on our insurance. Then if it is coverage for the company, how would one actually sue a Chinese company? I'm guessing it cost more to print the paper than what the premium was, lol.

Sorry I'm just a bit skeptical on this. The limits list look just like the ones on my car insurance, basically telling me my benefits/coverage, that I pay for. This is just what they are saying they are insured if they are sued, not an actual we will take care of you. People will have to have their insurance company or lawyer sue for payment. Which means they will never pay out, no company outside of China will sue a Chinese company in a Chinese court, they can't win. Then when they lose the insurance company does not have to pay.

It just sounds like a marketing ploy to me. I will stick with the big 4 and be happy with knowing exactly what battery I am really using.

Unless a company comes up with a new style of battery that does not have the positive and negative on the end of the battery that gets the most use and wear, or come up with a new battery chemistry that is less volatile, I don't see how they can claim they are safer than any other company since they are all using the exact same stuff as each other.

 

[oplholik]

uhm, thanks, but no thanks.

Frankly speaking this matter with insurance is ludicrous. Every company that import the battery from over sea carry the liability in any case something happens with the battery in their own country.
Further using a rewrap battery is in my opinion a matter of trust in the company, (or brand) that they offer genuine brands behind their wrap. In addition it is important for me that the batteries are classified like the original manufacturer does (LG Chem, Samsung SDI, Sony etc.).
Last but not least I would like to see, how professional this company is in the business of batteries (and Chargers).

Your insurance is great news for you, Ampking, as it protects you. But how does it help vapers or shop owners?

I’m curious how anyone can prove it was a defective battery in order to win their case. The evidence burns itself up.
