There Junk dont waste your money,, dont try to save on cheaper Batts as well it's just not worth it,, Either get the AW 18650 or the new Panasonic CGR18650CH , these are the Batts you want in your Grand

I know Karen. But husband wanted to know. And you never know, there could be something new pop up. LOL!!

Agreed- you need the better batteries...if you don't, then vaping just gets frustrating- not enough power, runs out quickly, etc. This is not to mention the batteries that are recommended are the safest out there!!

oh well he will just stick with what he has.

Vapers kill me sometimes, get the best pv possible, then get the worst batteries possible, lol.

This is whats new thats popped up and some say their better then the AW's Callies Kustoms 3100mAh 18650 Panasonic Batteries

AW IMR's are the only batts that I use for my mods. They are safer than most protected batteries out there. Also, they are the recommended batts for all of the higher end mods out there as well.

Those 3100s are great batts, but I'm not crazy about hw far they push down the spring in my Grands.

This picture shows a collapsed spring on a Mini.

If your battery pushes down the spring too much it will not have room to collapse and break contact.

Always be aware that some of the higher ohm batteries are longer.

Good point- apparently there have been a few "incidents" lately even in decent mods... We just don't want to hear about them in the news. Sometimes a battery malfunctions internally on its own. The Reo has some safety build into it, including the collapsible spring, but really- getting the right/safer battery could save you from injury... Make sure as one precaution, you allow the Reo to do its safety thing- allows the spring to collapse in the case of a hard-short...if it's already compressed from the get-go, you are asking for trouble if something does go wrong (and it has- my Grand's spring collapsed from a bad atty)- Thank God for the Reo Spring!!!
