batteries question

[oleg92]

So I decided I'm going with the va.mo 5 . My question is for the bigger batteries. Which once should I get for quality and thy would last operation time for a while (Mah) my coworker has Panasonic ncr. 3400 mah. Any suggestions?

I have a Vamo 5 it has a protection PCB. NCR18650B Panasonic no protection and Nitecore I4 or I2 is the best for this.

I am using Panasonic 18650-2900PD high drain with great results. The newer 18650-PF should be even better. Charge is Pila IBC. A bit more expensive but well worth it for the durability and reliability.

I use the red AW IMR 18650 batteries. Since I can vape at work I vape pretty much all day long and they last me a day in my eVic. For chargers you've already got good recommendations. That's what I use. The spring is a bit stiff, but I like it cause I don't have to worry about the batteries moving. Just be careful taking the battery off. I've read some posts where it became a battery launcher lol.

In a regulated mod like the Vamo you want a high-drain battery for the processor. The Panasonic NCR18650A 3100mah and NCR18650B 3400mah batteries are not high drain batteries. These low drain batteries are better suited for flashlights, not mods.

You'll do better with the high-drain Panasonic NCR18650PF or NCR18650PD 2900mah batteries mentioned above in post 4. I recommend purchasing from RTD Vapor.

Pila, Xtar, Efest LUC, and Nitecore are good brand-name chargers.
