IS 2 x NCR18650BE 3.7V 3200mAh 18650 Rechargeable Li - ion Battery good for E-mods?

[Riksel`]

I just purchased these two batteries for my VTC EVIC MINI and KANGERTECH subox MINI. Will these batteries work properly with these two mods? please help

 

[fenderstrat]

do you have a link to specs or the manufacturer.There is a ton of info on what batts are good and what to avoid in the battery section of this forum.A few min spent browsing there will most likely answer any battery question

 

[Susan~S]

No. The Panasonic NCR18650BE has max amp rate of ~3.6A. Only good for flashlights and other low drain tools.

Your Subox Mini requires a 20A CDR "cell". Here are some options for 20A cells (in descending mAh):

• AW 3000 mAh 20A CDR
• LG HG2 3000 mAh 20A CDR
• Samsung 30Q 3000 mAh 20A CDR
• Sony VTC5 2600 mAh 20A CDR
  
• LG HE2 or HE4 2500 mAh 20A CDR
• Samsung 25r 2500 mAh 20A CDR

If you are going to be vaping at 50 watts (and lower) on your eVic Mini any of the above cells will also work. If you are going to be vaping +50 watts, the Sony VTC4 (a 20A cell that can be pushed to 30A safely) is a better choice.

BATTERIES - WHERE TO BUY

Only buy batteries from a reputable supplier (not ebay or Amazon) as there are many counterfeit batteries being sold. Here are several reputable battery suppliers in the US.

• RTD Vapor
• Illumination Supply
• Orbtronics
• IMR Batteries
• Liion Wholesale

Does this mean that i cant use my panasonic batteries with my two mods? And also if batteries says 2000 mAh or 3000 mAh, does that mean the higher the mAh the more longer the battery will last ofr vaping?

Yes, you CANNOT use the Panasonic batteries in either of your mods.

The mAh stands for milli-Ampere-hours and indicates how much electric charge the battery can provide. The higher the mAh, the longer your battery will last before it needs charging.

I also have a Wismec RX200 and i am using LG HG2 INR18650HG2 3000mAh 30A INR High Drain Battery and Are these batteries safe for the Wismec RX200? and also will the LG batteries mention above(LG HG2 INR18650HG2 3000mAh 30A) work safe in my other two mods, which is the Kanger and vtc evic mini? Thank you so much for your help. Sorry for bothering you i have just started vaping and i am really confused with the batteries.

 

[Jim_ MDP]

I don't have a Kanger mod, but I have the other two and would comfortably use my LG HG2s in them. They're well regarded batteries with just that little extra capacity (mAh) that everyone appreciates.
But they're actually 20Amp (Continuous Discharge Rate), not 30A CDR.

Sorry about the Panasonics you have though... they are not suitable for vaping.
We're rather hard on these batteries, and they get a bit... violent when abused.
The mAh capacity is a convenience (longer use between charges)... the Amp capability is the safety aspect. Don't skimp on that. Ever.
So use the best. They last quite a while and are really pretty cheap for what they provide.

Reread Susan's post above. It's all very good advice and highly recommended vendors.

LG HG2 INR18650HG2 3000mAh 30A

Get more of these.

Use them in all your mods.

Toss those Panasonics in the local battery recycle bin... or buy 18650 flashlights for them.

and you still have to ask if you can use them then PLEASE go to the battery section and read before you injure yourself or burn something down.battery saftey is not a joke or to be taken lightly and from your posts you have not even bothered to learn the basics.I'm not trying to sound cold just spend the 10 min or so to make sure you are safe

10 minutes?

We have members that have invested years, are considered battery gurus and still can't grasp some basics.

Yes, i agree. It did go to many websites to educate myself with the functions and compatibility of the 18650 batteries but i really had a hard time understanding it.

 

[beckdg]

[*]Max. Continuous Discharging Current: 3.636mA

That's 0.003636A

Your point is valid. But that period needs to be a comma.

Thank you. Big help, I just ordered a few LG HG2 3000 mAh 20A CDR batteries for RTD Vapor.

Thanks again

@beckdg
you are a stickler for a comma and precision but want to argue a general statement...your last statement is so insane I wasn't even sure I should respond.....the fact of calling someone a guru rules out the fact that they dont know the basics.That is just silly and argumentative
I AM NOT GOING BACK and Forth with you again I am done

Yes I believe that in about 10 min or so you should be able to understand that if your mod calls for a 20A battery, that a 3 amp battery is not good.You can get a handle on what the CDR is and a basic understanding of mah..the basics
To the OP..fair enough,its a smart person who says when they dont understand something after they have read or researched...so what are you not understanding?maybe it can be explained in laymans terms

 

[Riksel`]

Hello there, thank you for your input and i would appreciate if you dont write back on my post again. Have you had your breakfast this morning? Because there is absolutely no need to be hostile here buddy. I opened up this post clearly because i did not understand the basics of the 18650 batteries. So if you can change that attitude and maybe help a little then that would be duelly appreciated apart from that you can just leave with your uninformative posts back where you crawled from. Thank you.

 

[fenderstrat]

I believe I did offer to help but I will gladly comply with your wishes and not post anymore good day

I knew I should have left this one alone

edit:I just re -read the thread to see if I was rude and needed to apologize.I dont actually see where you asked for any explanations.You asked if your panasonic batteries were good for vaping.SUSAN answered NO with a good explanation and your response was "so I cant use these"

One is much better equipped to deal with reality once one accepts that sanity and reality are mutually exlusive.

I have read this post in its entirety a few times and dont see anything that i would consider rude.... Man this is the internet, ya gotta have a bit of a skin in order to survive.
