Do you think these are real VTC 4's?

I know where some real VTC5's are and they are authentic. If you got the cash they have less then 20 left in stock. As far as Lightning Vapes those are Authentic VTC4's. Best bet for authentic batteries is RTD Vapor. Also Imren is not a good battery. I have had 2 of them before. It's a rewrapped chinese battery and I don't know what it is under the wrapper. I can assure you it is 20A and not the 38 or 40 Imren states

Ok thank you guys, I'll do some shopping around, what do you think about the 18650 Samsung INR18650-25R?
IMO that is currently if not the best battery on the market if you don't need 30A. LG HE2 and LG HE4 are good batteries as well. Stay away from Efest.

Why stay away from eFest jstrong. They are perfectly fine batteries. Yes the 35a are rewrapped LG 20amps, yeah its kind of shisty, but that 35amp pulse is over a minute according to many sources. Their business practices are low tier, but their batteries are good if you know what your buying. Granted theyre 2Xs the price as HE2s, so why buy them if you know better.

isnt that the whole point? Why buy a rewrapped LG when you can just buy the original LG? lol.

also I just recently ordered some wire/vtc4's from lightningvapes, been ordering from them for a while, they ship real fast. Been running <0.2ohm builds on the VTC'4s and they keep up fine.

I don't like to buy from companies that lie period. The whole point of buying HE2's is you still get the "Efest" battery without a purple wrapper and half the price. If HE2's are half the price of the Efest then why not buy those instead since that is what the Efest is. Plus a Samsung 25r has a pulse of 100A for a second and up to five seconds depending on who you ask and who has tested them. What gets me is that there is Efest fakes lol Why fake a battery of a company who fakes their own batteries buy not making their own cells. Efest now has holograms so you can verify it is a Authentic Efest Battery :?: How can a company do that when they use someone else Authentic Battery

Illumn.com free shipping to over a certain ammount, $6 25R and $8 VTC4s. You can also get last years Nitecore model for (four bay) for under $20. illumn.com is IMO the best site. RTD is great but personally I like illumn more. Thats it man, just get some 25r or VTC4 from illumn and be done with it for a year+. I mean you can get 5 pairs of VTC4s for under $100 and that should last at least a couple years.

I dont know why your talking about Samsungs pulse, i have no idea if what you say is true abot the 100amps c u z ive never read it. I was Saying that 35amp eFest are perfectly safe to run at 35amps for vaping, Because the PR is 35amps for 60-70secs depends who you believe. Do we know that efest doesnt have LGs permission do rewrap there batts? Also can you send a Link of these fake efest, as far as i know the only batteries that were being cloned were the sonys, granted i havent looked into in a month or 2

My favorite battery period. Incredible under load and puts out immense power. Samsung bench test says they can handle about 65 amps for burst!

Ive pushed my sammys past 20amps, but never looked in there pulse. Do you have a link? these are also my favorite batteries out now and you cant beat 10 packs for $55 from legit vendors

Just google or use the search on here for the 100A pulse. If you type Samsung 25R 100A pulse plenty of results will come up
