Battery Tip: 18650 current ratings

[Mooch]

If you are considering purchasing a particular 18650 battery, just remember that...

...there are none with a true continuous rating over 30A.

...there are none rated at 3000mAh with a true continuous rating over 20A.

...there are none rated over-3000mAh with a true continuous rating over 10A.

...pulse or battery company "max" ratings are useless and can't be used to compare batteries.

Mooch, I have been vaping for two years now.

I have learned a lot from you about batteries. Thank You!

When will I be able to buy Mooch Brand Batteries? (think AW batteries sort of)

Batteries verified, labeled, and sold by Mooch.

I am Serious.

Never.
Too competitive and no one will pay the higher price to cover all the testing needed for each batch. Some would, but not nearly enough people. It would seriously damage my impartiality in a lot of people's minds too.

Here's an alternative that anyone can use...

Locate and purchase your preferred battery(ies) from Mooch's extensive list. Create the insert as you see fit for one of your very own wrappers, remove the OG wrapper on the battery and rewrap

Voila

Template Specs for battery wrap inserts:
Resolution = 300
Height = ~65mm or 246 pixels
Width = 58.5 mm or 221 pixels
(the template I posted was created in Paint for visual purposes. While it maintains the Pixel ratios, it does not represent the mentioned resolution. It is recommended to set the specs and create the wrap in photoshop - Creating A Battery Wrap Picture - 18650 • /r/batterywraps

If you take this seriously and decide to follow through, maybe include some type of quick disclaimer somewhere before posting pics to all those interwebs so
@Mooch doesn't get bombarded with questions.

Whoa...whoa...whoa!!!
Please do not offer anything that even remotely hints at some battery being approved by me! We have no idea what batteries that would be used on and how that battery will be used.

Noted and fixed, sorry mooch. I kinda intended that as a joke but I understand it could have an unwanted impact

No one ever asked you for your service to our community. You did so out of the goodness of your heart. It would take an awful lot to damage your reputation.

Unfortunately reputations are very easily damaged.
