Hi again

[C bell]

Bit of advice off someone as I can't find the answer anywhere else. I've got 2 18650's here but haven't got a soddin clue which manufacturer. All I can say is they've got 5 legs going to the positive connection. Anything would be much appreciated. Cheers

Welcome! If you can post a picture, or post whatever is written on the wrap and where you got them from someone may be able to help.

Here is the "official" recommended battery chart. At least until Feb. 27th.

Unfortunately I wrapped them but took the info section on the old wrapper and put to side. Hopefully you can see pic properly. There wasn't anything on the battery itself

I'm not aware of any 18650 battery we commonly use that has 5 legs. It's not one of the big names, LG has 4 legs the rest has 3 (Mooch had a video talking about this, MYmAhs-EP8). Are you sure they are 18650?
If they are then you should either determine exactly what make and model they are (and if they're suitable for vaping) or not use them at all for vaping.

Howdy and Welcome!
batteries can hurt you and ruin your equipment. I am Very Picky about who I buy battiers from and what they are. This is nothing to guess about. It could make you have a real bad day!

Hi and welcome. Batteries are cheap. Faces are expensive.

Yeah, there isn't much we can do with the information you have provided other than to recommend buying some authentic batteries from a reputable supplier. Honestly, and I'm sorry about your earlier purchase, but don't vape them they may be severely underpowered, you don't know their specs, it's just not a safe idea.

If it's any consolation, buying from reputable vendors is often and usually cheaper than buying elsewhere, and batteries are the one thing it's not safe to skimp on, when it comes to overall vaping safety. Toss them (well, recycle them) and get some safe batteries.
