Hey guys I just bought a new system. It uses a 18650 Battery. I am not 100% sure of what the + or - is on this?

Before firing it up I wanna make sure it is placed properly. From the pics I will post below, which is the +?

Image 1 is positive. You may notice a tiny indented band that's also indicative of the positive end.

What kind of battery? What kind of system? Typically, batteries can do about 300 charge cycles. Depending on mah and how you run it will lend toward how frequently you have to charge it.

Awesome thank you so much! Also roughly how long do these batteries last?

If you run it at 5 watts it will last twice as long as at 10 watts.

i'd say a typical 18650 battery can last me a day at work, or I could chainvape it down in an hour at home especially if chatting and drinking with friends. I vape at 10 watts.

Look for the mAh rating on the battery ; it probably says something like
2000 mAh.
The little cigalike size Blu type batteries are like 200 - 300 mAh
the ego sized batteries are more like 1000 mAh
and the 18650 batteries are more like 2000 mAh
The higher the mAh, the longer the runtime.

Hello, I have the Atlantis 2 Tank now....And I am using 0.5ohm coils. I vape at 20watts.

What kind of tank do you use and what kinda coils? Thank you!
