I'm seriously eyeballing a Pair of these: LG HG2 18650 3000mAh 20A HighDrain IMR Rechargeable Lion Battery -INR18650HG2

Nice Thread and Bench-Test results on them here on ECF in the APV Discussion-Batteries and Chargers Section
LG INR18650-HG2 20A 3000mAh Bench Test Results | Page 2 | E-Cigarette Forum
Look to be quite impressive and nice Longevity between charges as well.
For my Mech Rig and typical Builds, these would more than foot the bill.

Nobody currently makes an 18650 vaping-type battery that is rated at 40 amp continuous discharge. There are several in the 20 to 25 amp range, and your VTC4's are around 30 amp. Excellent batteries.
Go to some websites of reputable suppliers: Orbtronics, Illumination supply, RTDVapes, and a few others and read the specs. If there was a legitimate 40 amp battery out there for vaping purposes those suppliers would be all over it.

Always remember to be able to make superior batteries, one must actually make batteries first.

None of these vaping brands/ batteries have thier own factories.

On a side note ******there are some articles i posted under batteries in one they talk about the average cost to start a battery plant is roughly 100 million. In that respect it is hard to imagine all these no name companies could pony up the cash THEN out engineer companies who have been doing this for 30+ years. And pull it all off in just a couple months.

Please dont let the dude bros chuckin clouds fool you. There are no legitimate 40 amp cells made by anyone. Can they do it? Sure, that does not mean they were designed for it.

running any battery over 25-30 amp actually damages the cell inside, and testing proves it, when tested no cell has been able to perform at high amperage without massive voltage drop making their worth as a high amp cell pretty pointless anyways.

These companies are all about the money. Notice the prices compared to "non vaping" brand batteries.
