If you scroll down past the test results, and how to pick a battery, the list of trusted vendors is on this page.

I'm in need of some new batteries. Is this site reputable? I've only seen mention of them once before.
They are my go to site now that imr has become unreliable shipping my orders in a timely fashion. 18650 has great prices, selection, and service. The trifecta, wonderful place

That post inspired me to buy 8 more of the LG brown batteries. I am completely going to achieve my dream now where every mod I own (UM I mean USE currently) will have LG browns in it, and there will be a stack waiting for replacement.

I also got a couple well. 4 more 2100 batteries too.

I went to IMR batteries and they are having an excellent sale on tons more stuff. Just by the way. I personally think for batteries (especially today) they have some of the best batterie prices anywhere. I used to get automatic free shipping and handling. I have NO clue ALAS I searched coupon codes and everything to no avail.

The best I could do on that was like, a set of free wire cutters. I was actually okay with that I have found wire cutters to be the best at cutting and trimming wicks but it does tend to like impair the effectiveness of wire cutting, so this new pair can cut my wires.

LOL I am kind of imagining a child doing that, and WHY and what might happen. Etc. I could see my 6 year old ordering something like that to build something an me (innocently and stupidly) going "okay honey." Not for vaping I might add, I would just have no sense of the potential of dangers of that combination. Etc.

Also, I HATE passwords. I have to reset many of mine like EVERY time.. I should probably use one of those password organizers, which is not something I usually would EVER do but it is becoming TIRESOME.

    Now you tell me :facepalm:. Jk. lol.

    I ended up getting 4 of the 25Rs and a couple of cases. The coupon might have saved me a buck or two.

    I don't wanna get ahead of myself here 'cause I'm not done collecting data, but the LGs I've got have aged less gracefully than some of my other cells.

    Is there a coupon code or just a great price for the LGs?

    I know; I'm one of Mooch's patrons too. But Mooch isn't testing a whole lot of 3-5 year old cells, some of which have seen real-world (albeit light) use, while others from the same batch have never been used.

    No just good pricing. You have to order at least 4 @Fidola13

    I can't remember what site gave me free wire cutters other than to tell you it was early in my search which was something like IMRbattery.com coupon codes July 2019.

    I would use wire cutters for everything man, they're so handy.

    Well, that blows @Rossum hopefully my delicate like, usage of 12 watts or so with help. I've also (on purpose) been charging them in the nitcore so it's slower. I use my other charger for the giant batteries. I hope mine hold up, man. I really do. The run time is so fantastic.

    I’m a Patron of Mooch’s and definitely asks not to publish information.

    I agree with this statement 100%. IMR was super slow (weeks, not days) to ship my last couple of orders from them (not shipping time but processing time) and I gave up on them. Been using 18650batterystore ever since and have not regretted the decision one bit. Great site.

    Took over 2 weeks the last time I ordered from them. That was the last time.

    I don't believe I've posted anything of Mooch's. I was merely suggesting that it is definitely worth at LEAST the minimum 2$ a month.

    Agree 100% He doesn’t make money I don’t think by testing these batteries and giving the realistic states of them. Plus if you watch his videos it really helps to understand how batteries work. I was very misinformed. Glad he’s got videos.
