Kinda Hard to Say.
Because each of the Battery Sizes that you listed comes in a Multitude of Constant Amp Ratings. And a Couple of Different Chemistries.
What type Mod were you going to use? Regulated or Unregulated?
It is dependent on the true CDR of the battery. I say true because many have overstated specs on the wrapper.
It depends on many factors.
What device?
Regulated or unregulated?
What sepecific battery?
How many batteries?
Series or parallel?
How many are in series and/or parallel (multi-circuit)?

Lets say each one of you chooses your favorite brand of battery and gives the levels for it used in an unregulated device. I know the question was kinda vague and I apologize for that
Suggest you check you particular battery vendors spec sheet for maximum current output, the run Ohms law on your coil build. many builds push the max greatly, so you're on your own there.
This may help as well-- UL 1642. http://www.liwinon.com/uploadfile/UL 1642 Ed.5-2012.pdf
18650,18350, etc, refer to the size of the cell.
18650=18mm diameter, 650mm tall.
26650= 26mm diametr, 650mm tall.
Cells come on various specs, and battery chemistry for each of the sizes.
You would need to specify exactly what cell you are using for us to help with your question.
To make it plain and simple
Mech 14XXX Series - 1.5ohms or abouts
Mech mod 18350, 18490, 18500 - Lowest safest resistance 0.8ish
Mech mod 18650 (Single and Dual Parallel) - 20amp CDR batteries (examples Sony VTC5, Samsung 25R or 30Q, LG HG2, HE2, HE4, etc) about 0.35 to 0.4ish, 30amp True CDR (Sony VTC3, LG HB2, HB4, HB6) 0.25ish
Mech Mod 26650 - Same as 18650 unless you spend the money are really good hard to find batteries, but for the MNKE Orange which is about 25 to 35amps TRUE CDR, about 0.2ish.
Single Battery Regulated variable wattage - 60 to 75watts only use Sony VTC3, VTC4, LG HB2, HB4, HB6 18650's
Single Battery Regulated variable wattage - Below 60watts any 20amp CDR 18650
Dual Battery Regulated variable wattage - Up to 100watts, any 20amp CDR 18650
Dual Battery Regulated variable wattage - Up to 120watts, Sony VTC4, Samsung 25R 18650's
Dual Battery Regulated variable wattage - Up to 200watts, Sony VTC3, VTC4, LG HB2, HB4, HB6
Triple Battery Regulated variable wattage - Up to 200watts, almost all 20amp CDR 18650s are safe.
For an Unregulated Device, I use...
18650: LG 18650HG2
18500: No Recommendation - There just aren't that many Choices that I know of.
18350: AW IMR 18350
What you Really need to do if you are going to use an Unregulated Device is to Know How to Calculate the Amps the Battery will be asked to provide based on the Resistance of your Build.
Then you take the Constant Discharge Rate (CDR) that the Battery is Rated for and subtract about 15% for some "Headroom". Than the you set the Lowest Resistance so it does Not Exceed the CDR for the Battery you are planning on using.

Battery drain
We're answering these questions without specifics from the OP these days?!?!?!?!
Somebody IS going to blow their face off or burn their house down...

For the record...
When someone comes here asking these questions as vaguely and nonchalantly as this...
They don't need information yet...
They DESPERATELY NEED guidance FIRST.
Get them started with something safe THEN barrage them with technical battery, electronics and mod information.
That way they can vape safely while it all sinks in.
This isn't an over night lesson. FAR FAR FROM IT.

The OP may have sh$tz his pants and left the building after all these replies 
Anybody know how many ohms a car battery can handle? Thinking of running wires through the firewall to my mod plug. batteries rated 175 cold cranking amps, do I have to deduct anything for when the coil heats up? I believe in safety margins

thats a tiny car battery... mines rated for 650CCA @ 13.2V ( 8580W)The OP may have sh$tz his pants and left the building after all these replies

3700 CCA @ 13.2V
I'm ready for the cloud comp.
48,840 Watts should get me at least on the podium.

Well that would solve the ramp up time issue with thicker wire.3700 CCA @ 13.2V
