I think the secret here is what wattage you are using.
Batteries when they’re good ones are all pretty similar, or at least they’re fairly comparable. If your single battery mod isn’t lasting more than a few hours you’re probably running well over the ~40w a single battery mod can realistically handle. A double battery mod will give you more than twice the longevity because it will be able to use more of the juice the battery already has. Dual battery mods are good to the high double, and sometimes low triple digits. A single battery mod will be able to fire at these wattages but for bare minutes only. If your wattage is high enough you may even need a triple battery mod.
If you name your atty and what wattage you are firing at we might be able to tell you more.

I have a relauex running aspire 20-40 2500 mah they came with it I got the lg h2 for my coolfire thinking ahw it be like my coolfire plus if I do this but hasn't worked I'm looking at getting the osub king that's what I'm wondering about for batteries I've already got the osub 80 an I'm looking at the king to be my intermediate pocket friendly with longevity an carry spare batts more convenient than a second mod I tend to vape between 60 to 80 watt depending on my coil I'm tending to go for spiral coils four stands five raps gives me a nice .1 about 70/80 watts on my kylin tank . is there any more I can tell you just want to pick the best battery for job .
I don't think there's a best battery for that job, not unless you want to change them 7 times a day. I'd really recommend a two battery, higher wattage capable mod if you want to vape at those wattages. Those LGs are fine, provided you aren't pushing one to its very limit, the problem being that one battery isn't going to provide you for your needs very long (even the best battery in the world).
I wish I could fix the problem with the perfect battery, but it's simply not possible with the wattages you are using. I really think you'd find a two battery mod much more to your taste. You'd be wasting your money, honestly, just trying other batteries. Sorry.

That's what I'm looking at my reluaxs OK round the house an work but I'm looking at the osub king to be nice in between for going out for the day .
My favorites are Sony VTC5a's for Mech's and Samsung 30Q for regulated

On a regulated mod the coil resistance is essentially irrelevant. What dictates the amp draw on the battery is the wattage you set, and the remaining voltage in the battery. The amp draw will increase as the battery discharges.
In the interests of keeping things simple:
If you use a good quality 20 amp CDR battery like the Samsung 30Q or the LG HG2 then you are good for 60 watts per battery. If using a 2-battery regulated mod, your good for 120 watts as you have two batteries. If you are using a 3-battery mod, you're good for 180.
If you use a single 30 amp CDR battery like the LG HB6 you are good up to 90 watts; with a pair of 30 amp CDR batteries you could safely do 180 watts assuming the mod cuts off when the batteries reach 3.4 volts.
Below are Mooch recommended batteries for a single battery regulated mod. Double the wattage for a two battery regulated mod.
up to 90W per battery:
LG18650HB6 1500mah 30 amp CDR
LG18650HB2 1500mAh 30 amp CDR
LG18650HB4 1500mAh 30 amp CDR
up to 75W per battery:
Sony 18650VTC5A, 2500 mah 25 CDR
up to 60W per battery:
LG 18650HG2 3000mah 20 amp CDR
LG 18650HE2 2500 mah 20 amp CDR
Samsung 18650 30Q, 3000 mah 20 amp CDR
Samsung 18650-25R, 2500 mah 20 amp CDR
Sony 18659VTC6 3000mAh 20A CDR
Sony 18650VTC5, 2600 mah 20 amp CDR
Sony 18650VTC4, 2100 mah 23 amp CDR
AW 18650 3000 mah 20 amp CDR
Since you will be vaping 60 - 80 watts with a two-battery mod, you can use two of any of the 20 amp batteries (resulting in up to 120 watts) and take advantage of the extra capacity (mAh). You won't need a 25A-30A battery.
I recommend either the Samsung 30Q or the LG HG2 or Sony VTC6, the best combination of amps and capacity. Not sure why you were getting poor battery life with your current HG2's. Maybe a problem with your Coolfire 75W or the HG2's are counterfeit or damaged.
Where did you get your LG HG2 batteries?

That's what I'm looking for thank you . think I see some vtc6's in my future thank you guys been a great help and I feel like one the gang already .
Lol, I've been on forums for quite a bit. A little game I play is just replying to the title.
Entertains me on slow days, and I'm often late to the party on this forum. Everyone has helpful info, so...

Nothing to add here. My findings are already represented. I have just got accustomed to building different attys for different mods and accepting that if I push a mod I need to carry extra batteries. Start getting down below .2Ω and I just know I'm gonna suck some juice out of the batteries either from the power setting or from the length of vape it takes to get a satisfying vape. Just gonna be that way.
I carry 2. Have 13. 25rs, VCT5A, VCT6
I'm not high wattage, but signle battery between .3 & .5ohms. Go through a few a day.
As you said, I just accept it.

Yeah the only way to get through a whole day on a single battery for me is to go MTL. At the voltages he wants to vape at I suspect a triple battery mod will be required if he wants it to last. Right now I’m trying to use an ageis (1x26650)with an aromamizer plus on it as my daily. Getting the battery to last is proving a challenge. I gave up dual coil entirely and right now am running a single 6 wrap 24ga single wire at .7 ohm & 23w. We’ll see how far this gets me. I suspect it’s still too much power.

Went to a single on the Pulse 24, back to dual at the moment on the Drop.
2 batteries a day. Honestly swapping out batteries isn't such a big deal to me.

60 to 80 watts on a single battery is like flooring your car everywhere and wondering why your getting bad gas mileage. I run dual at 80 watts and lasts all day. And the LG batts you have are good just running it at full discharge or more.
Me either normally. I’ve only got 2 26650s atm though. Also no 26650 batt case. If I have to I got a releaux 2/3 to use. It sits better on the ageis though, and with 10ml cap I don’t need to carry a juice bottle.
Comparing to the Dead Rabbit and Pulse 24.
It's the easiest to build on, narrowly beating the Pulse. All are fantastic, it's trimming and ease of placement that edges out the Pulse & Rabbit.
I find the draw smoother than the Rabbit. It could be down to placement, but I suspect it's the air flow across rather than down. It's about the same as the Pulse on draw, maybe a bit more airy, at an estimated similar setting. There are just so many af settings with the drop. May be hard to believe but cutting off just one hole makes a difference. I've played with them all and think it's a well thought-out design.
Flavor is different altogether. I've liked the Rabbit but never got a "wow" flavor from it. Great but not BAM! The Pulse has that, but with the same build the Drop seems to be an edge better. Could go either way honestly.
For sqonking I prefer the Drop just slightly over the Pulse, and completely over the Rabbit. It may be me, and I can accept that, but keeping the Rabbits wicks full was a chore. The Pulse is easy to keep going, but the Drop just holds more juice with that deep well and raised pin. I suppose with the height and build options available with the Drop it was necessary, and it works.
You could pick any of the 3 and have a fantastic RDA. If you sqonk I'd pick between the Pulse and Drop. I obviously prefer the Drop because there is just so many options with build. Single, dual, triple, quad, wide open or tight, it's all up to your preference.
I wanna say I'm not of the mindset that there is anything wrong with the Rabbit or Pulse 24. It's just my opinion. I guess this sounds like a commercial, but i strongly suggest it be tried out.
