I was fotunate enough to be one of the new Mancavemod members. Now I am trying to read all the past information. I have AW IMR batteries. I think those are only rated at 10 watts output, but will they work?. Is there a list of the 20 watt output batteries. I may need to order a couple difference batteries if my AW IMR will not cut it.

The AW IMR's will work. They are rated at 10amp max output which is well over the 7amp max required by the DNA20. If you are wanting to vape at 20watts you should get the AW IMR 1600mah. They have a real low internal resistance and are capable of sustaining 20W with the DNA20. If you are looking for a good all around battery, I like the Panasonic CGR's, and other people here have suggested the Panasonic NCR's as well.

Would love a Duel 18650. How about trying your hand at building a MCM bottom feeder? Kinda like the bogger box with a DNA20. You would have your stuff sold in 2min! haha.

I have been thinking about bottom feeders, but I've never built one before. I will try to do a few to see how it goes but it will be next year sometime. :)

Here's a question for the Matador. Have you even done any of your lovely mods with a customer requested connection? Meaning if I wanted one with a slightly recessed 801 connection and it was a guaranteed sale, would you consider it? If not no biggie, I've just always wanted a device with a dedicated 801 connection. Simply because 801 fusions are basically all I use and they look sorta silly on everything.

Looks like I may be in luck. I have two AW IMR 1600 18650 batteries to play with.

Possibly... how recessed do you want the connector?

If I may chime in, check out Samsung INR18650-20R's (2Ah, flat top) as well.. Those are the best batteries I've ever found for my self-built DNA20 mod, I'm sure you won't be disappointed.

I got in the habit of using adaptors when I had a couple Darwins. With their brass connection it was highly advised to use an adapter. I've just continued to do so on my box mods regardless because it just seems to me if one does enough swapping of "toppers" eventually the threads would get a bit loose/"sloppy" or just worn out.

Ya know, I really wasn't expecting you to be so on board with it. :blush: I'd have to do some measurements. Or at least look into how a standard 801 connection looks on a mod. It may not even need to be recessed at all. I would just absolutely be in love with a mod that allowed an 801 to be screwed down virtually flush.

Or I could send you wanna my tanks with 801 in it & you could tinker around with it. Lord knows I've got plenty of spare tanks & 801's.
