None of those batteries are 35 amp, there is no such thing as an 18650 that has more than a 30a CDR.
Best deal on high-end batteries? Who knows where to look?

You are as bad as Efest quoting pulse ratings instead of continuous ratings. Your quotes are pulse ratings. In vaping, we ignore pulse ratings and go with the more reputable continuous discharge rating.
Continuous Discharge Ratings vs Pulse (Burst) Discharge Ratings:
The "continuous discharge rating" in amps is the standard specification for amp limits within the battery industry. It is a determination made by the manufacturer and represents the amp limit a battery can be safely used before it will fail.
The "pulse or burst" discharge rating is not a specification standard within the battery industry. Every manufacturer or vendor seems to have their own definition of what the pulse rating is.
A pulse discharge rating is any use above the continuous discharge rating. It is never safe and not within the intended operating parameters of the battery. You should not operate your device above the continuous rating if you can help it. The pulse rating is a condition in which the battery is on basically a buildup to failure. It is exceeding the sustainable and intended discharge rate of the battery. It is inappropriate for a consumer device to operate in the pulse range of its battery.
Which would be why we shouldn't rely on any pulse rating. Any failure, mechanical or electronic, that fires the mod will operate in the 'continuous' mode. If your setup relies on a pulse rating, it's instantly over spec.
If your amp draw is safely in the continuous discharge range, your coil could act almost like a fuse and burn out before the battery is stressed. If you are already running the battery at the edge of it's limits (pulse), there is no margin of safety.
For reals, I saw that video...forgot about it for a while.
Anyone know if storing batteries for a long time affects them in a bad way? Like lets say I buy ten VTC4s NOW and in a year when the eight I am currently running are thrown away can I just break out those eight VTC4s I was hypothetically storing away?

maybe not -the- best (but still reasonable pricing), but for convenience its great if you DIY eliquids or if youre ordering wire. i ordered some batteries form lightningvapes.com when I was ordering wire, and some from ecigexpress.com when I was ordering DIY eliquid supplies. Sony VTC4's that are goin on strong. Ive also been reccomended RTDVapor for just a good authentic battery seller.
