I just order my Innokin Itaste 134 mini, but did not realized that the batteries I have will not work with that mod, since i have only 18650's. I have looking all around Google and I realized that there are not batteries higher than 1300mah out there for the 18500, so I guess Innokin miss something here with this little monster, since there are only low mah batteries out there for this mod.
My question is what good batteries are out there that can last a little longer than regular batteries? I'm using Samsung brand and Trusfire, which I have a trusfire charger that allow me to chanrge bot batteries and they work good on my Evic which last almost all day vappin at 6.4w.
Also the trusfire do will charge batteries like the 18350 and 18500 for other brand or their brand?

Thanks!

Innokin didn't miss this yamezbond, they built a small mod that by definition can only take smaller batteries that don't have the capacity of the bigger ones :)

The battery requirement for this mod is that they are rated for at least 5 amps of continuous output. I would buy the new AW 18490, 1200 mAh from an authorized AW supplier to make sure you get authentic batteries. RTD Vapor (my link) is a known good supplier. Don't buy from Ebay, Amazon or from China, way too many of those suppliers sell counterfeits. These are rated for 18 amps continuous, so they have low internal resistance which will help them last longer.

I suggest you avoid Trustfire batteries. They are some of the most often counterfeited batteries out there so you never really know what battery you have and I know of no supplier that sells authentics. The Trustfire charger and I'm assuming you've got the TR-001, is pretty much bottom of the line as far as chargers go. Yes they will charge 18500 and 18350 Li-ion batts, however they do it slowly and people have had batteries ruined by them. I also suggest you do not leave that charger on overnight because they do not completely shut down after the batteries are charged. Li-ion batteries that are overcharged can become a fire and/or explosion hazard.

Hope you like the new mod!
