For a dual battery regulated mod, a 20A battery should be more than enough. Here's a list of recommendations from our battery guru, Mooch
At the bottom of that list are reliable vendors. There are lots of counterfeit rewrap batteries out there (eBay and even Amazon) and it's not worth trying to save a dollar when it's your own safety.

There are all the Black Friday deals going on at some places early. I just ordered a bunch of 25Rs (yes, the 30Q offers 500 mAh more, but I'm just used to the 25Rs and how long they last vaping) for $3.50 each from IMR. Even without a sale they're only $5 from there. They're in Houston and are solid on shipping and CS. I ordered those on Monday, and even with the holiday, USPS has it down for delivery this Friday. Be sure to check out the other vendors on the bottom of that list.
Ladiekali sounds familiar. 
Being a Provari owner, you'll probably remember me.
As stated above, the below batteries would best suit your needs in a double battery mod:
LG 18650HG2 3000mah 20 amp CDR
Samsung 18650 30Q, 3000 mah 20 amp CDR
Sony 18659VTC6 3000mAh 20A amp CDR
AW 18650 3000 mah 20 amp CDR
If you use a good quality 20 amp CDR battery like the Samsung 30Q or the LG HG2 then you are good for 60 watts per battery. If using a 2-battery regulated mod, your good for 120 watts as you have two batteries. If you are using a 3-battery mod, you're good for 180.
If you use a single 30 amp CDR battery like the LG HB6 you are good up to 90 watts; with a pair of 30 amp CDR batteries you could safely do 180 watts assuming the mod can generate 180 watts.
Below are trusted suppliers that reputably sell authentic brand-name batteries:

thanks to every one, i ordered 4 batteries for less than $20 shipped with a couple freebies with a coupon.
appreciate the help!

It's a trade-off between amps (how hard you can work the battery) and mAh (how long it will work for, at a given load). You need a battery that can sustain the amp draw you will be using. You want one with the highest available mAh, while still adhering to your amperage requirements.
Two batteries at 80 watts, you're essentially (not exactly, but the math works out) pushing 40 watts per battery. Assuming a low-voltage cutoff of 3.0 volts under load (you can use a more accurate number if you know the actual cutoff of your particular device) gives 80/3 = 13.3(3) amps per battery as your maximum draw. Going by the chart posted earlier, it looks like you could use either of the 3000mAh batteries, LG HG2 (see note about counterfeits) or Sony VTC6 [Edit: or Samsung 30Q]. You'll want to stay away from the 10A Sanyo/Panasonic on there, but any of the other cells should work out (although with shorter life per charge) if you can't find one of those other ones from a reputable source.
Those were the days.
I'm actually pretty happy with the clearomizer Uwell Crown (the original; there are Crown 2, 3, and Valarian). They are sub-ohm tanks (use coils less than 1.0 ohm, and require that your regulated mod can put out 30 watts or more). Use drop-in factory coils with a variety of resistance ranges (I prefer 0.5 ohm). Easy top fill. Has a ratcheted ring to adjust the air flow.
If you don't have a high-wattage mod, I suggest using either a Kabuki (relatively expensive) or a Kabuki clone (about $20 at Fast Tech), or an Aspire Nautilus.
I've retired my Provari's. Using a JAC Vapour series B DNA75W.

i've not seen that mod before! how long have you been using it.
I've been using the uwell crown's too. and i have a sx mini Q class. but it's starting to make a funny noise that i can hear, thought maybe i had the wrong type batteries in it causing the noise
I did just order a crown 3 mini, and i ordered vaporesso swag with a tank. so i have two new tanks to try.
I have a baby beast, don't know why i'm not liking it. i just find i go back to the crown's.
i ddin't have like with the kabuki or the nautilus
i guess i was so used to the carto tanks that it just never compared.The Jac-B mod is British based, I think. Reports are favorable, if you do a search there is a very long thread about them, and I think they may be having a sale at the moment....

My vtc5s and 30qs last the same usually a day 2pm to 6 am at 80watts
i hate the search on this fourm! i never find what im looking for, but i'll try
Uhhh, like last month, they just did a completely rebuilt search function to greatly improve over the old. It really does seem to find things faster, so it is still worth a shot using it. Give it another shot.
