Good battery?

Gotta love them orbtronic pd2900!
Not specifically great for SLR coils, but it will make a kayfun/ithaka hit for a good 6+\- hours before I switch to the next

I have always stated these charts are great for a general idea but need to be taken with a grain of salt as they always show the battery with a set amperage drain until they are unusable, when in reality the curve is slightly different especially for a mechanical, because as we all know as the battery dies in a mech the power and amperage output dies off as well which would change the drain curve substantially.

Thanks so much guys. I read all the links. I do get this a lot more now.

Looks like I will get me some of these when the time comes.

The main question now is this. If I did NOT use a kick, and DID use those batteries which "are" safe hybrid chemistry, how would I know they are out of juice?

Or should I just get a kick and those batts and call it a day?

IS this a good kick? The Kick by Smok Tech

I have two of these they do the job. And will shutdown when the battery gets around 3.2.

I don't know if it's better it just has an led display if you have to have that. I have the Nitecore charges, shuts off when charged and does no overcharge I check them with the multimeter .

Well I decided to grab one of those i4 Nitecores from illumination supply from the link in this thread.

I just could not pass it up, it was 20.01 to my door. Hell I don't even know if I am going to get a mod or even order batteries I just could not pass that deal up LOL.

But IF I do decide on this, do you guys agree on this battery? Because I would get 4 of them. I wonder how long they will last me. My MVP 2.0 lasts me like literally 4 days lol...

Will the Panasonic CGR18650CH work in an Innokin VTR?

Yup, should do quite nicely.

Well orbtronics sent me 4 of them today lol. Should do nicely as I am picking up two VTR's and a 134 mod...

Hey, there you go. You could vape with both VTR's at the same time, and get a good workout for your lower arms.

Just a quick bump.

Bought 4 of those CGR18650CH batts. I got them in last week, charged them up.

Ended up also grabbing a nemesis clone hcigar version. I grabbed a Kick by Evolv from a friend of mine real real cheap as he upgraded to the kick2. Holy CRAP does this thing kick ...!

I have sorta switched from my protank2 to slotted/punched boge cartos in tanks. And I have been using them at 8watts off my MVP 2.0 and love them. Now this kick is set to 8 watts, but holy hell its just amazing. This is such a different vape its nuts.

I don't understand why this is so much better. Like even if I crank my MVP full tilt it is nothing like this.

Stoked!

Hi all. Going to order an Innokin SVD in the morning, and have read all this thread plus others. But would like to know whats the best, biggest MAH 18650 battery I can use with the SVD please. Does it have to be a button top? I think I understand they have to be an unprotected battery due to the circuitry in the SVD. Can I use those panasonic 3900's? I will also order a Xtar pw1? to charge them all. Thanks

 

[PapaGeno21]

You're better off getting a lower mah higher discharge batt vs such a high mah with lower discharge.

The ones I got would be perfect I think for you.

 

[Tommy Trauma]

Much obliged sir. Ordering 4 from Orbtronics now. Just ordered an SVD too.

Samsung hybrid (LiNiCoMnP)
INR18650-22P 2200mAh 10A
INR18650-20R 2000mah 22A

These are a high drain hybrid battery and are highly recommended. The INR-22P is more of a general purpose battery, while the 22 amp INR-20R is more suited for the needs of sub-ohm vapors.

A large list of IMR/hybrid batteries appropriate for mod use is in the above link "Battery Basics for Mods".

Thank you just wanted confirmation also read your other informative battery information
