Two "PILA's", wow, now that's cool, you will be READY for anything!
Finally received my order today. I received two 18650 LiMN and four 16340 LiMN 3.7 volts.
The 3.7 volt 16340's are much shorter than the standard 3.7 volt RCR123a/16340 because they don't have a PCB on board. I wasn't able to fit standard 3.7 volt RCR123a's in my SB because of the length of them. The 16340 LiMN fit now in my SB no problem. I have a GG i7 on my SB and it works good.
If there's anything negative about using these LiMN batteries, I'll be sure to post it. Otherwise, I'll give it some time and see if there's a difference between LiON and LiMN and will update on my feedback.
I also got one of those nifty led light things as a free gift with my order to check the laser hole that vapn uses. I had no idea I would get this free gift and was a pleasant surprise!!! Works great for inserting in the atty and is a perfect size for this task.

I just received my two 18650 LiMN 1600 mAh AW batteries, did NOT notice any difference from my other 3.7 volt batteries using my GGTS and a pre-filled cartomizer. Will have to test with a 510 atty, as resistance may be a factor. Still good to have these long lasting batteries, with high drain amps. They FIT the GGTS perfectly.
here is my take on these LIMN batteries, from what i have been reading of others people's posts, if you are using a 510 you may notice a difference, more likely so if you are changing to a LIMN from a smaller size LI-on battery. Considerably less difference is noted with higher resistance atties (901, 801). Although they are deemed "safer" when shorted, so that may be a plus for someone, but really we dont need 10c for any attie, i think the regular 2600 mah aw Li-on's should do fine, if anyone compares these with the LIMN, i doubt there would be any difference, even with a 510, there is a limit to how much an attie can draw...if we gave it a 45c rated battery, it would not preform any better 
oh and dont forget the good ole placebo effect (i just spent 20 bucks on two batteries, @#$@#$%)

How did you spend that on two batteries when lighthound has them for $10 apiece?

I tend to agree with you. My take on these AW batties:
1.) with 510 a bit stronger TH;
2.) They are save as they cannot explode;
3.) smaller then regular 18650's';
4.) last longer;
5.) more expensive

Good points, the online video I saw, seemed to be some double-barrel mod, which would totally throw off any test, as it would be two attys. On a pre-filled cartomizer, it seems about the same as any other 3.7 volt battery I have already, flavor is good as it usually is, when I vape at 6 volts, the cartomizers put out more vapor, but it is HARSHER hit.
Not sure about point #4, these are higher drain, and may NOT last as long as the 3000 mAh 18650's, but maybe you can test this for us, as I am not a heavy vapor. Price is not much more then any other decent battery in my opinion, point #5.
have not bought them yet, i was looking at the retail price lol, and thinking in Canadian currency
concerning point 4 I mean charge cycles, according to some experts, but let's see ;-) if around 500 times is the truth
I agree, using a double-barrel is not a apples to apples test. I see no difference, but am still glad I bought em.
As "geeky" as I am, I don't have the time or energy to count charge cycles. But as some others have stated in this thread, they may in fact last longer, guess we will find out.
Has anyone tried these out at all?

Oh. And the reason for the post was to test the placebo effect. But it seems like I can swap the batteries out and tell a big difference in vapor production and TH.
Maybe we can get the mythbusters guys on it...
These are NOT the "high drain" batteries this thread is about, and I believe are mentioned earlier in this thread, read the whole thread from the beginning. I also think I read they are NOT "button top", and need some kind of adapter/spacer, which does NOT interest me at all. If they were popular, I think we would have read more positive things about them, even if fairly new.
Really, more vapor and TH? What atty on what mod? Just curious, I have all the tools to test, some of which I have already done, and see NO real difference here. Again, I am glad I bought these, and are my first AW battery purchase.
GGTS with 3-4 wk old non-hv 510 atty using blue foam strip carts.
charge them a few times, like any battie, they get better. there is really a difference, so far I know for sure with a 510 attie: more TH and Vape with the TS
I have a non HV 510, I'll try it via dripping, as I have not done any cart mods.
They came fully charged, I don't believe a battery needs a break in period to deliver their voltage.
