AW P18650 -29 VS AW IMR on a provari

[Bdbodger]

I see the AW P18650 protected battery is rated at 5.8 amp continuous output so can they be use instead of the AW IMR 18650 battery that is rated at 8.6 amps continuous output ? I mean does the provari even put out that many amps ? I have a couple of Utrrfire 18650 protected batteries @ 2400mah can I use them as well ?

If you keep your total power draw down, then yes, you can use those. If you start to push it (like using dual coil cartos), then you'll get auto shut-offs when the ProVari detects it can't pull power fast enough from the battery.

Well I usually vape at 4.4v you know the sweet spot for a lot of things . The new G4 carto's are 4ohm so I can vape then at 5.2 or so but prefer somethink closer to 4.8 .

I managed to get an email to madvapes before they had sent my latest order so I will be getting a couple more of the high drain AW IMR batteries . I will still have the other 4 but plan to use them in a mod .

4.0 ohm at 4.8 volts is only pulling 5.76 watts/1.2 amps. You should be fine there, until the battery starts to get low. It may shut itself off a little faster than it would with the recommended battery.

Ah, but I see below this message that you changed your mind and will be using the recommended batteries. Good choice.

Yes I will be getting the high drain batteries . I did make one error in my post it was provape that I ordered from not mapvapes . Both are good vendors so praise to both of them but my order from provape did get here a lot faster than any orders from mapvapes when I ordered my provari .
