It's sometimes difficult to identify a battery from an image, but we can see the printed letters and numbers on the battery's wrap to form an educated guess.

The "ICR" lettering indicates that it is a lithium cobalt battery. This chemistry has been obsolete for vaping applications for 3 - 4 years now. These are not safer chemistry, and are not considered high drain (high amp rating).

The recommended battery chemistry now-a-days is either IMR (lithium manganese), or one of the hIMR-Hybrid chemistries (INR - lithium nickle; NCR - nickle cobalt). These are considered a safer chemistry and a high drain battery (high amp rating).

  • For those who want to learn the differences between IMR, IMR/hybrid, ICR, and LiPo batteries. What do those numbers and letters on batteries mean? What's an amp rating and why is it more important than the mAh rating when choosing a battery for vaping?

I want to order the wismec 2/3 and I need to batteries dont know wich one of them from the list
Pick among the 20 amp 3000mAh batteries; all four are extremely close in performance and specs. You'll get the minimum 20 amps needed by the mod and also be getting the highest mAh capacity available in an 18650 battery. I recommend purchasing from one of the more reputable vendors to avoid getting counterfeits.
