Yes, agree that ICR's should not be used with a mechanical. Get some IMR batteries. 10 hours on an 18350 is pretty tough, but depends entirely on how much you vape. To be safe, bring extra batteries with you and keep them in a protective plastic case. One battery may last all day, but rule number one: backups to backups should always be employed. Good luck!

For a Magneto or any mech mod, you should be using an IMR high drain battery, not an ICR for safety. Also using a fuse with any battery is recommended.

To last 10 hours without changing batteries, a 18650 size would be necessary for most vapers. A 18350 is simply not big enough to hold enough energy to power any mod for that amount of time.

I have a magneto and it will fit those battery's but I will recommend making sure they are protected ICR battery. The run time on the battery really depends on how often you use the vape though out the day. I always bring back up battery in a protective case. The cases are 2 bucks and well worth every cent you dont want a battery shorting out with loose change.

I would go as far as to say that mods in general should be running IMR batteries. They are high drain batteries and considering you have a low resistance short across the battery terminals, vaping is high drain.

An ICR battery if something goes wrong may vent with hot gases and flames, an IMR will not vent flames. If you're going to put it near your face or in your pocket next to your private parts, do you want flames or no flames....:)

Don't know of any battery that will provide 10 hours of total vape time. Closest I have is my Beast Box VV mod, with 2 26500 batteries with 6000 mah's or the Big Nasty with a 26650 4000 mah battery. But then I run at a minimum of 20 watts on my builds. An 18350 is not going to last very long, and stay away from the ICR's. Scared me to even click on the topic with ICR in it.
