Is the Efest purple battery "c" rating accurate? I purchased these batteries a little while ago and I was wondering if the 35 amp claim is what I can expect from it to sub ohm with. I recently started seriously sub ohming and I love the clouds I have been getting. I have my trident clone on my hammer mod reading at .19 ohms using 24 gauge kanthal wire. This is coping a build I have on my valkyrie hybrid clone that I can't ohm test. I felt safe using this battery because of the 35 amp claim, but I would like to know if it is accurate.

I have not seen a review of this battery yet jtsmythy. OTOH, if it turns out like the Efest 30A batt, you might want to be careful at really high draw. Sony US18650VTC3 30A vs Efest 30A. He didn't take the Efest much over 20A because it started heating up.

At 0.19 ohms, you're drawing around 20A, but if your ohm meter is off a bit and it's really 0.12 ohms you're at the limit. If the battery gets warm you've gone past what it can safely put out and any little short will put it into the danger zone.

The Sony's have proven good to spec.
