About 2 weeks on those though I'd recommend the AW ICR 10440 over the IMR anyway as the AW ICR outperforms the IMR by a wide margin. The IMR is not made by AW and i question whether it's really an IMR to begin with. I see this with many so called IMR batteries, they are not high output and get spanked by even non IMR AW batteries in load testing. Here is the IMR 10440 vs the AW ICR 10440:

Awesome thanks for the info. I am planning on using these on a small VV mod, and they recommend only IMR batteries. The mod takes 2 10440's in parallel (I think). I assume I can use ICR since they are protected. Any concerns with ICR on VV?

Hi Super T,

Thank you for the fast and excellent service. I bought a few AW IMR batteries and a Pila charger.

I have a few questions. After the batteries are charged I notice that they are a little warm, is that normal?

When I test the volt with my meter it reads 3.17v, is that the cut off and normal?

Also when I put the Aw imr 18490 in the charger it seem that it is a loose fit. It does have good contact but its not a tight fit as with the 18350 with spacer.

Thanks again, Evosil

The IMR and ICR 10440's are non protected. It's generally not a good idea to stack batteries given the danger of a battery failure. I would stick with the batteries that the manufacturer is recommending for their mod.

That is not a problem, it just how far the spring is compressing depending on the length of the battery and they can come of the charger warm after charging. IMR's don't have a cut off, so the battery is going to read either what voltage your remove them from the device at or if the device has an internal voltage shut down, whatever that is set to by the manufacturer.

Thank you for the reply.

Here are the test results of the AW IMR 18650 1600mAh vs the 2000mAh. Test was performed at 2.5 amps which is the approximate draw of a LR 1.5ohm atomizer. The winner? It's a tossup.


Through most of its life, the 1600mah does hold slightly higher voltage under load .

Though total tested mAh of the 2000 was almost 400 more, only 200mAh of it was "useable" and only when using vari voltage/wattage devices (assuming we change out the battery by 3.3volts which is when the Kick by Evolv automatically shuts off). The other 200mah was gained when the battery was under 3.3 volts.

My opinion. If you are running vari wattage/volt mods, run the 2000mAh as you will gain maybe another 1/2 to 1 hour run time.

If running mechanical or non VV mods, run the 1600mAh for its added ability to hold voltage under load. If you change your batteries out at 3.5 volts, you gain no mah by running the 2000mah and it can't hold voltage as well as the 1600mAh.

Just so this doesn't get buried:

AW P18650 2600mah vs 2900mah vs 3100 mah. And the winner is:

The AW P18650 2600mah by a large margin. It not only has a higher useable mAh rating then the 2900mAh or 3100mah, it holds up to .2 tenths higher under load! The below stats would also apply to other batteries such as the Redilast and Callies Kustoms 2900 and 3100mah as they use the same panasonic cells as the AW 2900mah and 3100mah.

All tests were conducted at 2.5 amp draw, which is the approximate draw of an LR atomizer.

The AW P18650 2600mah holding up to .2 tenths higher voltage under load then the 2900mah or 3100mah is clear in the graph, however, look closely and you'll see it (the 2600mah) actually has a much higher useable mAh rating too. Let me explain:

Let us say we change out our batteries at 3.3 volts, which our vapor is quite weak at this point. Here are the mah ratings achieved before hitting the 3.3 volt change out voltage on all three batteries:

P18650 2600mah at 3.3 volts: 2216 mAh

P18650 2900mah at 3.3 volts: 1879 mAh

P18650 3100mah at 3.3 volts: 1741 mah


Larger mAh ratings are achieved by manipulating the C ratings. Sure the 3100mah may be better on an extremely low amperage draw, but not on our Ecigs.


This is good news for all. The cheapest of the 3 is the 2600mah and it has the most useable mAh and load holding capability!

I would like to see the AW P18650 2600mah go head to head against the AW IMR 18650 1600mAh. I keep trying to look at one, then scroll and look at the other (repeat often). I just can't decide which I think works better. I would love to see them on the same graph.

I know it is kind of apples and oranges, but it might help.

Here you go

Here you go

Wow! That really does show a big difference. Looks like I have decided which one I want to use.

Thank you very much. That really was a big help!

Heya D - when are you expecting more AW IMR 18350's? I have a mini-mod on the way and need a couple + a charger.

AW is shipping them out tomorrow to me, so they will be in next week, probably around mid week.

AAAAAAUGHHHH!!

We need transporter technology like NOW!

 

[sonicdsl]

Hey will the Pila charger work for the 18350? I didn't see it listed so I assume not, but wanted to ask to be certain. TIA

 

[forcedfuel50]

Sure it will, just use an aluminum 15mm spacer for each battery. I sell them right below the WF139 charger for a 1.99 each.

I put in an order for batteries back on the 21st and I got a shipping notice on the 22nd.

My order included 2 AW IMR 2000 mah 18650 and 2 AW 1100 mah 18500 batteries and I know you guys have been out of stock for a little bit now and were expecting more 18650's, but I just wanted to know if my order was filled and shipped, if it was split up, or if you are still waiting for the 18650's to come in to fill my order....

FYI, the tracking info just says, "electronic shipping info received." Thanks!

Thanks for the replies and pm, Dave. Delivery happens today.
