best 16340 batteries for saber touch vari volt??

Okay, so you don't know for sure that they fit...

I take that back... I do have some of those, and they do work great!
Sorry about the confusion.

Awesome... thank you!

As a suggestion, you might consider listing them officially as an option. You know everyone always wants longer vape time on a set of batteries. I wish I would have known so I could have bought them in the first place. Thanks for confirming it for me though!

I did my research and thought I had ordered the right batteries and charger for my 5v reg....after reading this thread I find that there were others that would give longer vaping time. Is there any place that gives all battery options for each ST?

Hi GrannyDee. I believe you ordered the IMR AW 16340's, right? Those are awesome in a 5v Saber!! The main thing to remember is to change batteries every few hours, regardless of the mah. These batteries do not like to be completely drained. They prefer to be "shallow charged" often. It is a good idea to have multiple pairs available so you can swap at will. I change mine 3 times a day (only takes 5 seconds to change 'em). I hope that helps

I haven't seen one, but I'll give you my list of what I use in each Saber Model

Saber Touch Mini: AW IMR 16340 or AW IMR 18350 (I prefer the 18350)

Saber Touch 3.7/6 volt: AW IMR 18650 for 3.7 & AW LiPo4 3.2 volt(blue) for 6volt or AW IMR 18490/500 w/kick for VW

Saber Touch 5volt Regulated: 2x AW IMR 16340 or 2x AW IMR 18350 (I prefer 18350)

Saber Touch VV: 2x AW IMR 16340 or 2xAW IMR 18350(I prefer 18350)

Saber Touch "kicked Edition": AW IMR 18650 w/kick for VW or with Battery extender for 3.7


There are others that will fit, but from my experience, this is what I use and what I would recommend

Yes, those are the ones I ordered. I have 2 sets on their way to me now. I will change them as you have suggested.
I spend a lot of time away from a source to recharge my batts. I have to take enough to last for 3-4 days before I head home to be able to recharge.
Looks like I need to order a couple of more sets, lol.

Thank you for the list. Since I will need to order some more batts to help me survive extended times away from a charger, I think I will get the AW IMR 18350 in my next order.

Thank y'all for the good info.

You are very welcome GrannyDee.
Great list, Tat_Skull. Y'all have sold me on the 18350's. I'm going to have to get some now.

That extra 150mah does make a difference
