Hello there fellow vapers! I am new to vaping and the 75w eleaf nano istick picco is my first upgrade from using a vape pen. The Picco requires one 18650 high amp battery. I ordered a Samsung INR 18650 25R 2500mAH flat top battery. Did I make a mistake? Will this battery work? If I made a mistake, what battery brand/type should I get and who offers it at a decent price? Any help is appreciated. Thank you.

I agree. That battery is fine.

Just a FYI, you could have gotten a 20 amp battery with more (3000mah) capacity which would have allowed a couple more hours per battery.

Hi and welcome. The 25R is a great cell and will serve you well in that mod. When you replace it, go for the Samsung 30Q instead as it will give a bit more battery life with no loss of current draw. On that cell, I'd keep the mod to 60 watts or below.
