Batteries for SB and Chuck??

[Lehd]

Hi All,
I am not new to reading the forums but am new to joining & posting.
My question is this-I have a Silver Bullet, (bought it used) the batteries are Ultrafire 18650 2400mAh Li-on. I like vaping at 6 volts & would like to know which batteries are the best and safest.
Also, My gf is expecting a Chuck-what batteries should she get?
Can we get the same batteries for both Mods?

Thank you,
Lehd

Yep!! I can't answer your question about batteries @ 6v.but it's a fact that the 18650's will work in both. Someone else will come along soon fer your other answer!!..........I also have a Chuck!!

Most are using tenergy rcr123a batts.

Yes, the 18650 will give you 3.7V vaping.

If you prefer 6V, you will need to find RCR123a batteries. I am currently using 2 Tenergy 3.0V batteries. This is the most common setup.

I just recently ordered this kit form Amazon. Good price for 6 batteries and a charger.

Amazon.com: Kits: 6 RCR123A 3.0V 750mAh LiFePO4 Rechargeable Batteries with a Smart Charger: Electronics

Thanks , Which 18650's do you recommend as far as being good and safe?
TY for the link Bruce!

Yep!! I use ultrafire 18650's both 2600 & 3000 mah.... they work well with the ultafire Wf139 charger

 

[Lehd]

Hecknaw,
Where do you get your batteries? Also, what do the 2600's look like? Are they the red ones?
Thanx

I prefer the AW batteries than the *fire brands (*fire always seems to fudge factor their mAh ratings to me) and I've never heard anything bad about AW

The newer AW LiMN high drain batteries seem to have been getting very good reactions and people are happy with them.

Here's some links:

And if you do paypal...heres a link to get them from the AW dealer for slightly cheaper:

*Note: also has the WF-139 charger here that comes with the spacers for charging 3.7V CR123 batteries included

Thanx Drodz,
Vaping at 6 volts which batteries would I get for that for the SB & Chuck?

 

[Lehd]

WOW! My gf just got a confirm from Jeff-her Chuck is on its way! In time b4 her next operation. What a great guy.
Now I've got to get batteries fast!

 

[hecknaw]

Yep!! I got mine from Battery Junction but I do believe i read somewhere that they had a warehouse fire and are not taking orders at this time.

 

[Lehd]

No they are not accepting my order. Now what?! Any recommendations 4 other places?

 

[hecknaw]

YEP!!madvapes has 18650's in stock now!! I have gott'n my shippments as fast as 2 days from them...these are i believe the 2400 mah

 

[hecknaw]

Yep!! madvapes also has the 3000mah ultrafire in stock!!

Thanx Drodz,
Vaping at 6 volts which batteries would I get for that for the SB & Chuck?

For 6V I'd either go with those 3V CR123 tenergy ones that were linked by a previous poster

or that AW thread at CPF that I linked also has a link to 3V CR123 LiFePo4 batteries +charger that he's selling too..

 

[Lehd]

I was called away...sorry for the delay in thanking you all.
I checked out the AW dealer-does he/she ship from Hong Kong? States his location is Hong Kong. Is so that must be a helluva wait.

I believe mapvapes sells the batteries you need for the chuck.
