best battery for LR's?

[lexi60]

I was wondering if there is a better battery for LR attys then IMR 14500.
I read somewhere about AW14500's....? cant find that post again.
Is there a better one that I could use in my box mods?
If so.. who sells them?
Thanks!

In general:
18650's or AW IMR 14500 (if you are wed to 14500)
LR's need more current.

You can find them here
Lighthound.com
cloudsofvapor.com
CPF market place.

There is also a currently open AW battery co-op over in PIF.

If you are not sure its the battery, there are alot of other things that could be going on.
Is there voltage sag?
Is the battery life too short?
I assume you've tried different atty's.
Loose connections, poor soldiering, undercharging, failing switches, etc.
