Well, not familiar with that brand, but I'd suggest
I'd suggest VTC 5, VCT 5A, 6 Samsung 30q, 25a, or the LG batteries that I can never remember the numbers for....

Moochs battery chart in 3,2,1...

Is that the models I should look up? Thanks for he help bro. I’m looking forward to seeing the charts

140w using any 2 cell power device is gonna be hard on batteries.

Any of these 3000mah cells might increase between recharge cycle run time over a 2500mah.
Sony vtc6 19ish a CDR
Samsung 30Q 20a CDR
Lg HG2 18ish a CDR

I buy my cells here ---> Batteries and Chargers

What is limiting for you is the wattage you are asking. Those high of watts means very high amps with a regulated mod. 140 watts is 70watts per battery, wanting to run that high or are forced to do so due to an inefficient tank like Smok provides in their kits, you are going to need a 3x or 4x battery mod to gain any reasonable amount of run time. Battery technology for 18650 batteries is what it is, you can have high mah but lower CDR, you can have higher CDR but lower mah, or a balance of the two, can't have both camps, just can't fit that much power and energy density into such a compact storage unit.

120 watts and below (or 60 watts per battery) - Samsung 30Q, Sony VTC6, or LG HG2 all 3 3000mah and about 20amps CDR
120 to about 150watts ( or 60 to 75watts per battery) - Sony VTC5A 2500mah 25amp CDR, or the LG HD2, HD2C, HD4 (2000 to 2200mah) at 25amps CDR
150 to 180watts (75 to 90 watts per battery) - LG HB2, HB4, or HB6 1500mah at 30amp CDR.

Your settings, the Watts formula looks like this

140watts set/6.0v (3.0v per battery) lowest voltage supply/90% Control Board Efficiency= 25.9259amps you are needing and lowest voltage, so that leaves you in the camp of the Sony VTC5A 2500mah 25amp CDR battery for your needs and have any run time at all.

To gain more runtime you'll need to sacrifice the watts you are running down to 100 to 120watts or like I stated above you need a 3x or 4x battery mod like the Wismec RX200, RX200S 3x battery mod, or even a Smok GX350 4x battery mod.

Probably not the answer you were wanting but it is what it is, no getting around the limitations of the batteries we have available.

140 watts will drain any 2 batteries fast no matter how good they are. But getting some good name brand will help a little. And also some devices read whatever watts you put it at but won't actualy be firing it. My sigs say 230w but they'll never do it unless someone makes a 40 amp batt.

Yeah I’ve turned down my wattage. Going to look into a 3 battery kit or a 4 battery one. Thank you. Also going to get better batteries I currently have a limitless XL tank. Will that be an issue

No i'm using a limitless Xl myself at 60 watts and 2 batteries, no issues whatsoever (then again i'm within my batterie's limitations)

The limitless tank should work fine on a 3 or 4 battery mod, and good call because at your wattages, you really need extra batteries to get any kind of reasonable run time.... Hope you find a mod you like! And using good batteries from a reputable source will help as well. Best of luck.

Anna
thabk you bro. Trying to figure out what mod now lol
