Batteries

[Jessica Lynch]

So I just went and got Samsung 25R batteries. That’s all my local vape shop carried. What is everyone’s though on thins particular battery? I just want to make sure I’m safe as I’m new to the whole external batteries. Thanks.

They are excellent and widely used by vapers, including many here at ECF. You chose well.

And kudos to your vape shop for carrying decent batteries instead of rewrapped garbage. Many vape shops I visit carry efest and mxjo.

What are you using them in?
Mech, what resistance on the coil?
Regulated, what watt, and how many batteries in the mod?

It’s in the Nunchaku 80w with a 0.4Ohm coil between 45w and 55w

Perfect! If Mooch likes them, then I think they will be just fine.

That battery will work great for that watt range...

Great! Thank you so much. I’m really glad I found this Forum. Everyone has answered all my questions and I get many opinions and different views. This is great.

Our choice of batteries are the most important decisions we make in vaping. Brand, model number, and specifications are extremely important. Choose the battery which best fits the way you vape.

I think its a very good idea for new vapers to learn as much as they can concerning batteries. Not only for safety's sake, but for the best performance of their vape gear.

Are You Using a Rewrap (Rebranded or Aftermarket) Battery?

You should be fine, and as long as they're authentic, no worries at that wattage. I'd read through/look through Bad's info if you have the time though. There is always something "new" to learn about batteries, and charging, and battery care, etc. You'd want to be sure you know why the batteries you got (and their ratings) are going to work for you at that wattage.

It's what I use (I'm even more puny on wattage, though) and I like them a great deal.

The 25R is a great battery, good for up to 60 watts.
