Wait till you get your REO, you'll be using it as an excuse to order a different colored mod

Happy Birthday, Amberina. Enjoy your gift!!!

I know you guys will be seeing me a lot around here now. I will probably have a million and one questions for you once my Reo arrives!!
Thank you for being so helpful and welcoming- you are awesome!!!

Ok- I have another question. I have AW IMR 18650 2000mah batteries. Will this be ok for the LP Reo Grand or do I need to buy the 1600mah AW IMR batteries??

Thanks!!

The AW 2000 will be fine. They have a 10 amp cont. discharge rate vs. 24 amp for the 1600 mah. The 1600 also will hold the voltage around the 3.7v area longer than the 2000. Here are the specs:
IMR18650-1600 Specifications :

Nominal Voltage : 3.7V
Capacity : 1600mAH
Lowest Discharge Voltage : 2.50V
Standard Charge : CC/CV ( max. charging rate 4.5A )
Cycle Life : > 500 cycles
Max. continuous discharge rate : 15C
Operating Discharge Temperature : -10 - 60 Degree Celsius


IMR18650 -2000 Specifications :


Nominal Voltage : 3.7V
Capacity : 2000mAH
Lowest Discharge Voltage : 2.50V
Standard Charge : CC/CV ( max. charging rate 2A )
Cycle Life : > 500 cycles
Max. continuous discharge rate : 10A
Operating Discharge Temperature : -10 - 60 Degree Celsius

So it looks like the 1600mah is preferred for the Reo- is that correct?
It looks like it would be a good idea to get a few of these...

I have both. The 1600's are better but the 2000's will work fine. Be sure to stay above about .6ohm if you are using the 2000's.
