Best 3000mah 20+ amp battery

[Scy123]

Hello, I am about to get a GX350 With a TFV12 and would like to know what are the best batteries for it. Looking for a 3000mah 20+ amp battery with the lowest voltage drop.

Edit: sorry should of looked at other threads before asking. Can't delete this thread now. Seems Sony VTC6 are what i'm looking for.

There are no 18650s with 3000 mAh and over 20 amps cdr. The Sony vtc6, Samsung 30q, and LG hg2 all hover around 20 amps and are pretty equal. I haven't tried the vtc6 but have plenty of 30q and hg2. I prefer the 30q, though I don't really experience much of a difference between them.

I use Sony VTC6 and and LG HG2. They are fairly even on capacity and vape time. I received four Samsung 30Q's yesterday from RTDVapor and they just came off the charger. I haven't used them yet, but I expect them to be in the same ball park as the Sony and the LG.

All three of the above are great choices for 20A range 18650's.

What I got from an interview with Mooch is that there are materials in the battery that make the power and metal to transmit the power. To have more peak power there needs too be more metal which reduces the room for the materials that make the power. If the major manufacturers can't do better than 3,000 mah and 20 amps operating safely then neither can the little guys. May be we'll be seeing a new generation of batteries in a few years but why do I doubt that?

That's the reason we are seeing 26650 batteries becoming popular. They are larger and contain more mass than 18650s, so you get longer discharge times at high wattage.

It's pretty much the same as D alkaline batteries vs AA's. Bigger is better for the same chemistry. Batteries need to be matched to the load requirements.
