I've been using this battery to vape at 15-25 watt maximum is it safe to use it or not?

Do you know which brand it is? I didn't even know 5000mAh 18650s were available.

Skipping to 1:58, the chart shown suggests that higher valued mahs are ideal for low watts, and lower mahs are better for higher watts. It also suggests that lower amps are better for low wattage usage. Like everyone, I would recommend a good brand such as LG, Samsung, Sony, etc. And there is no official battery which are more than 30amps.

What's the max CDR on that battery? Can you answer that? If you can't, then no! it's not safe to use.

This is the third thread I've seen from you on this topic and you've been given great advice. I suggest you heed the warnings and quit using a battery that was never designed to be used in a high-powered application such as vaping. It's an accident waiting to happen. Don't press your luck kid.

No, it not safe to use.

Like many others have said on all three of your threads, the subox mini needs a 20a CDR battery.
There are no 18650's with a 20a CDR that have more than 3000mah.

Why three threads on the same battery?
Are you going to keep asking until someone says what you want to hear?

I bought it with the subox mini from the same seller
Its INR battery

Wrong!! That is NOT an INR battery. It clearly says on the wrap it is a Li-Ion (ICR) battery. Wrong chemistry for any type of mod...period.

There are no IMR/INR batteries on the market with more than 3000 mAh. Further proof that it is an ICR battery.
