Battery question...

[5150Marley]

I have a Tesla VV/VW mod that came with two ICR 18650 2200 mah 3.7 volt batteries. (they are blue)

Are these safe to use with the Tesla or would the Sony VTC4's (neon/lime green) be a better choice I have a few of those?

Just want to be absolutely sure after I read that thread about the Ego battery blowing up... I want to be real safe when it comes to batteries.

Probably best to always use safe chemistry, and their hybrids in our devices. The ICR is not not safe chemistry and you already have protective circuitry in the Tesla. I use the Sony's in my mech's primarily, due to the high discharge and amperage. They are excellent. I would use them and not The ICR's. good luck!

I always vote for the safe side of knowing that the batteries are protected or rated for the amperage that I will be using them at.
