Battery life (18350 AW v. Efest)

[Train2]

I know it's here somewhere, but can't find it...
I COULD be wrong, it wasn't really scientific, but I could swear I just got a MUCH longer vape time from an AW IMR 18350 that's 700 MAH as compared to an eFest 18350 that's 800 MAH. They're both brand new, came off the same charger, got used for the same PV and same tank. And I mean like not-quite-double-but-a-big-difference...

Do you know of a test chart somewhere that would confirm or refute that this might be the case?
Just wondering. I don't need more just yet, but it'd be nice to know if there's that much of a difference before I buy any more.

Hey Train, what's shakin'...

I've seen a chart comparing all the eFest and AW, but it was just something I ran across and didn't bookmark. Might be on a flashlight forum... I'll poke around and get back to you. In the mean time, someone else, Bad maybe, might have a discharge graph.

Ciao...

Hey Train, there is a shiz-ton of charts and graphs on CandlePowerForums - way too much to try and cut and paste to here.

Their search engine is locked out to non-members, so... if you're not a member, I suggest you join, if for no other reason than all the excellent battery info... most of which is generated by "HKJ" of Copenhagen, Denmark.

Thanks!! I'll check it out...

I've always used only AW IMR batteries in all of my mods and been quite pleased with their performance.

However, last summer I was buying some batteries from RTD Vapor for my daughter's first mod setup, and decided to give the Efest batteries a shot. I got her a four Efest IMR 14500 batteries and myself a couple of Efest IMR 18350 batteries for my Mini Provari.

My Efests were added to my AW rotation. At first I didn't notice any difference, but after a couple of weeks I noticed a big drop off in the Efest's use time. I'm talking about by half.

About this time my daughter just happened to ask why her 14500 Efests were only lasting half the use time from when they were new. So I ended up giving her a couple of my unused 14500 AW IMRs and I put my Efests away for a rainy day. No more Efests for me.

I picked up a couple eFests in a coop, and as mentioned it sure SEEMED like a far shorter runtime...
I'll give it another couple goes and try to keep track, but first I was VERY surprised at how long the AW lasted, then again surprised when a brand-spanking-new Efest didn't seem to match up at all...
