Just going through my stuff and realized I have:

12 18350 batteries
6 18500 batteris
16 18650 batteries
4 26650 batteries

and that's just the only ones in my "current rotation". I have about 50ish retired batteries that I need to dispose of. lol. I tend to be very .... when it comes to my batteries (I number them and keep a little chart next to my charger....lol) Just wondering what everyone else's routine is when it comes to batteries.

6 18650s (with 2 more Samsungs on the way from Illumn.com)
2 18350s

I have a pair of LG HE2s, HE4s and Sammy 25rs, along with the purple Efest 18350s. All my pairs of 650s are numbered 1 and 2. The 350s are for my Vamo since that thing is way too long with an 18650 (I rarely use it anymore anyways).. As for the rest.. When I only had one Sigelei Mini, I would go through the pair of HE2's, then switch to the freshly charged Samsungs. When I was on battery #2, Id charge the LG's up and be ready for when the last Samsung died. Then rotate again. Bought the HE4s just recently because I could and kept the same sort of rotation between the 3 pairs. Now that I have 2 Sig Minis (one has a bad 510 that will only thread my Derringer so its now my 'RDA only' mod), I have been using the HE2s for the good mod, and the 25rs on the other one. The HE4s are used when I need to charge either pair. Just ordered another pair of Samsungs like 3 days ago and the plan now is to keep the LG's in rotation on the 'good' Mini, and the 25rs in rotation for my 'RDA only' Mini, since the charts seem to show they last a little longer and I vape my Derringer at higher wattage than my Kayfun 4s.

Never bought any ( passthroughs almost since I started).

I started vaping on ego stuff and when I was ready upgrade, VW/VV wasn't a big thing, so I went to mechs. I have some VV/VW devices (istick, MVP, etc) but for some reason, I just like mechs. I'm weird like that. lol.

7 x 18650s and 5 x 18350s in rotation.

Note of caution for the folks that have a very large amount of batts - Lithium ion batteries do not like to sit and wait to be used for over extended periods of time. Not exactly sure of the time frames, but a battery needs to be stored around the 80% charge ratio and not more than a few months without use and a recharge.

There is a ton of batt info on ECF.
