Tamer...I don't really know, it would be impossible to guess...but I would chance it if I had no other resource. Personally I like buying directly from well known battery distributors who have passed the test of time, by members here.
Yeah..guess this makes more sense..will check it out..and they have great prices for the HG2!

I think Tom was gonna do that one, until he figgered out that the nifty glass tube is ONLY on the 30mm option, and for the 22mm, it was kind of ordinary. Sumthin like that...
Yes..I realized that after taking a close look at it.

I cannot speak for that vendor, but if Illumn will ship to you, I would go with them as they are approved vendor. If I was buying more batteries, I would buy the HG2's while they are being sold at lower prices to clear the stock: 18650 LG 18650HG2 3000mAh High Discharge Flat Top
Not sure if you follow Mooch on Facebook or ECF, but he recently posted about the very very high number of counterfeit HG2s circulating in the market.

From his analysis, it appears that the counterfeits are snuck in early at the source, and many reputable vendors have received them.

Apparently many vendors are doing clearance sales to flush out their stocks. So that's smth to keep in mind.

Any chance on getting an updated eta on the black stumpy's?
The black stumpy v1 isn't happening. Harry pulled the plug after he got an order for 50 of the ones slated for coating. With only 40 left it wasnt worth the aggravation of taking them all apart, having them coated and then re-assembling them. We are working together on the Stumpy 2 together and I'm pushing for a few colors right after the initial release.

Upon first glance that thing is revolutionary, upon closer examination and the realization it's a 22mm atty with a 30mm shroud it's not so great any longer. I'm giving that one a pass.

Guys and ladies..does anybody know if the the VTC5 batteries offered at Eciggity are legit?
Not sure of ecig but I know for a fact they are at rdt vapor .com. I buy all my batteries there and rewrap them alot and they are allways authentic and one of the cheapest places to buy on top of that

To confuse the issue, the HG2's are being phased out for the new HG's that are approaching release. Many vendors are selling the 2's to clear out their stock for this reason as well. Illumn is an authorized seller, however. Not immune to counterfeit I suppose, but less likely.
