I have The ProVape-1 Version 2.1. I use the 14500 AW battery. Looking to get a few extra. Confused about different types. Is the AW a brand? What is IMR?

AW is the brand. IMR is a Lithium Manganese type of battery that uses safe chemistry. Safer chemistry will prevent venting with flames in the event of a catastrophic failure. IMR are also know as "high drain" batteries and can handle greater load demands. Li-Ion batteries, like those from AW, are also capable of handling these load demands.
The load we put on smaller lithium-ion batteries using them for vaping is higher than they are designed to handle. IMR batteries can handle a much higher load.
I can't see any real disadvantage between the two. What it boils down to is longevity. The Li-Ion batteries have more choices in mAh, so it just depends on how long you want to go between charges and what size battery your mod can take.
The largest battery my Chameleon can take is a 14650 and I use a 1300mAh. The largest battery my Indulgence can take is the 18650 and I have two 2900mAh's for it.
Sorry to bring up an old post, was wandering:
Which battery is best for LR atty's? Can you use IMR batteries on LR atts?
Which batteries are better for LR atts, IMR or ICR?
I know what the terms mean, just not what their meant for.
