Looking for some 18650s

[LKnives]

I'm planning to order some 18650's from fasttech and was wondering what the preferred brand is? A co-worker said someone did a post about this already but I forget the specific battery he mentioned. I think it was the Panasonic 2250mah but I want to make sure before I spend money.

Panasonic cgr. I believe they are about 2 for 10 or 11 dollars on fasttech. I have only read good things and I use them in my mech mod all the time

Okay cool, them the ones I was eyeing up.

I got these before they run out, the safest to use I read. Be sure you need flat tops though. $9.65/pr if you get 5 pair.

$10.51 Panasonic CGR18650CH Rechargeable 2250mAh 3.7V 18650 Lithium Batteries 2-pack - authentic cells / 2-pack at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping

I also got this charger while I was at it, one of the best around.

... And now the problem with Fasttech that I keep hearing about: I went there to buy a set of batteries and now my cart has more stuff in it somehow. What is this?

I noticed that if you use the search bar while on a product page it seems to always add that product you your cart. Always double check your shopping cart before placing the order. That is a good rule of thumb for any order on any website.

Go with the Panasonic CGR18650CH deal at FastTech. You won't be sorry.

Haha, sorry I was kidding. I only intended to purchase the 2 Panasonic CGRs and ended up snagging an iClear16 and a new carrying case because they were so cheap as well.

I agree with the others. The Panasonics are the best available. It takes 1-2 weeks to get your order but, shipping is free.

You might want to stop looking around. That happens to me everytime that I go there lol

I did. They shipped out the 18 th and will be here Monday 24th. It took 5 days before they shipped and I got a SVD mod ( not to go with those batteries though)

 

[salemgold]

BTW- You may want to buy as many batteries as you are able to afford. Panasonic has discontinued these batteries so, once they are gone, they are gone

Oh.. lol.. I actually do have a problem with them adding random stuff I don't want to my cart. Then there is the problem of me adding stuff I don't need because its so cheap. Fasttech is diabolical....

Indeed. Original plan: Spend about 10 bucks at Fasttech. Plan that actually happened: Spend 44 bucks at Fasttech. Didn't even know I was going to buy a new charger until I found out I was buying 4 batteries instead of 2.

I have both the panasonic cgr18650ch and the ncr18650pd and the ncr's last about a day longer. I get 2 days from my cgr's and 3 days out of the ncr's for those of you interested. The ncr's are about 5 dollars more per 2 but worth it in my opinion. You can't go wrong with either battery but since I have both I thought I would let y'all know my experience. Vape on my brothers and sisters. Those are fasttech prices by the way.

Sounds like a trip to Walmart.

AW batts or orbtronics are all I use. Never was a Panasonic or efest fan. Ymmv
