Battery help for a Sigelei

[Baums]

OK so I just got a sigelei and am now looking at batteries. I just purchased this to charge which I read was good:


Amazon.com: NiteCore IntelliCharger i2 Charger - for charging 18650, 16340(RCR123), 14500, etc.: Camera & Photo

Now I am looking at these 2 batteries but am unsure what the difference is:

eFest IMR18650 Flat-Top Battery


eFest IMR18650 Flat-Top Battery

Also, one other thing, with that charger does it matter if the batteries are button top or flat?? Thanks everyone

Which battery you need is going to depend on the mod, and you haven't been too specific. Sigelei makes a lot of mods. It's sort of like saying "I just bought a Chevy... what size tires should I get?"

That said, button-tops are a safe bet. As far as the difference between the two you linked, the mAh rating indicates how long the charge will last. One of those two is rated by eFest to last longer than the other.

ETA: Just realized you were asking about the charger. It'll handle either just fine.

Ha sorry Trick. Good analogy though. It is a Sigelei Zmax. Would the flat tops be ok as I have found those for a good deal?

Baums ,I have a Sigelei Z-max also. They will accept a nipple top or flat top. The first link is an eFest ,the second is an EH. I think the eFest is a better battery. I personally use a CGR Panasonic CH in mine. If interested check out Accessories/Parts

Sorry for the late reply a I just got back on the forum. Yes, the batts linked to on Amazon are the same one's I'm using in the Segelei Zmax. I'm very happy with them fwiw. Also replied to your pm Baums.

A company called fasttech has the same cgr18650ch batteries at 2 batteries for $9.53 with tenoff coupon code and free shipping but I think the company is in china so it may take a while to get here. The company and deal were recommended on vaporjoes and he also gives the coupon code. It's the cheapest price I have seen for those great batteries. Also the Sigelei ZMAX is an awesome device I've had mine a little while now and love it. Thay also have 2 samsung icr18650 batteries for $8.24.

Don't think they can beat the Amazon price for a 4 pack.

I have several efest batteries in different sizes.....been using all of them without issue
But I will say I do have 1 efest 18650 flat top....will work in every mod I have
Except.....my Provari ..
Flat tops are a no go in that one.
Since then I stick with button tops.
also. ...just a heads up.
Ultra fire 18650's are taller than AW's and the efest's which keeps you from being able to screw down the bottom cap completely on some mods..can't use them in my Tesla ..well I could...they work...just don't fit right
