My favorite batteries are panasonic CGR18650CH
They blow imr aws


MNKE blow them all away. However, here are some specs for the AW IMR 1600

AW IMR 18650 1600mAh (Red)

Test/Review of AW IMR 18650 1600mAh (Red)
AW IMR 18650 1600mAh (Red)



Official specifications:
Nominal Voltage : 3.7V
Capacity : 1600mAH
Lowest Discharge Voltage : 2.50V
Standard Charge : CC/CV ( max. charging rate 4.5A )
Cycle Life : > 500 cycles
Max. continuous discharge rate : 15C or 10 amp
Operating Discharge Temperature : -10 - 60 Degree Celsius



This cell is designed for high current and can handle up to 24A according to the specifications.


have been tested with discharge currents up to 20A and the battery handles it without problems.

The battery might be useable up to 24A, but do not expect a long runtime, it is less than 5 minutes at 20A.

Conclusion

The battery is a good battery, but with the low capacity it is mostly for special HIGH CURRENT APPLICATIONS.




MNKE



Rated Capacity 1500 mAh

Maximum Continuous Discharging Current 20 A

Maximum pulse Discharging Current 60 A

Maximum Continuous Charging Current 6.5 A

Maximum Rated Discharging Current 30 A

Nominal Voltage 3.8 V

Maximum Charge Voltage 4.2±0.05 V

Temperature Range/Discharge -20~60degree

Temperature Range/Charge 0~45degree

Temperature Range/Storage -20~35 degree

Internal Resistance at Shipping 23±1 mΩ





While Im at it - here is test done by SuperT - Full well showing that Panasonic cannot blow AW IMR 1600 away. Since its well known I like a hard hitting all mechanical device and lots of vapor - AW IMR 1600 - out performs your panasonic.


Heres the long awaited Test at 5amps between the AW IMR 18650 1600mAh and Panasonic IMR 18650 2250mah.

Again, there is no clear winner, it depends on your application. It's easy to look at total mAh and mistakenly think the Panasonic is the better choice, but most of that mAh comes at under 3.2V and is unuesable in ecig apps.

- The AW consistently holds higher voltage under load (about 1 tenth of a volt) throughout its useable lifespan.

- At 3.3 V as tested mAh:
AW 1600mah: 1457mAh
Panasonic 2250mah: 1278mah

- At 3.2 V as tested mAh:
AW 1600mAh: 1540mAh
Panaosonic 2250mah: 1651mAh

Recommendations:

Mechanical or semi mechanical mod (Precise, GG, Silver Bullet, Zenesis etc): AW IMR 18650 1600mAh. Holds high voltage and will hit harder and more vapor. If you don't mind a bit less hit and vapor, the Panasonic will run longer though.

Kicked Mod or VV/VW Mod that shuts voltage off at 3.3V: AW IMR 18650 1600mAh as the AW has higher mah down to 3.3V

VV/VW mod that shuts off at 3.2 V or lower: Panasonic IMR 18650 2250mAh



So Placenta, please share on why Panasonic is your favorite and you feel it blows the AW IMR 1600 away

Not trying to ruffle any feathers or hijack jim's thread but I really do enjoy the panisonics more than imr. They seem to last for two to three days and I haven't noticed any dropoff in performance that you spoke of. I didn't get as long of a run time from my aw. Haven't tried the batteries you recommended yet. I do not own a mech mod yet so I can't comment there. I only own a provari. I am considering a mech mod but am fighting the urge to spend the money.

I have a few of the Panasonics, and while they seem to be decent batteries, they have a nominal voltage of 3.6v according to the manufacturer specs instead of 3.7v, and they take an extremely long time to charge compared to AW IMR's, roughly 3 times longer in my experience, even at 1amp charging.

My AW IMR 2000mAh batteries literally last me three days on a single charge, and I rotate three of them in a ProVari.

I have noticed they take a while to charge. No big deal I guess. What method do you guys do for rotating batteries? I have 8 nipple top panisonics, 4 flat top panisonics and numerous aw but I get confused. Was thinking about getting a label maker.

You can use a labelmaker, but I use a paint pen. I notice sharpie rubs off rather easily once marked on there, and paint pens will not.

Friendly warning

I got my Did about 3-4 months ago. Those of us who have one realize how amazing it is compared to a carto or standard Atty, and from what I read better then most other genisis.

So a week or so ago I broke mine. My fault. So I ordered the parts. You know first the new york guys have to play with it for a while, I digress, and to add insult to injury my omega was giving me big problems

So I went to work 4 day trip with a cheap ego 18650 mod and a carto. By the way the pv died already. More on that latter.
Well it was a hard 4 days.

Last night I made the tiger coil I talked about on the modified Did( repair) and it killed the pv.. ego18650 crap.

Tinkered with the omega and got it to work with the carto. Resigned myself last night that I just have to wait for the parts and get a spring for the omega.

Well this morning while taking a vape on the carto. I looked at my sad did on my nightstand and said. I have to fix the blanking thing. Or start just drinking e juice. !

Happy to say I got both working. Granted some issues. But even a crippled Did is better then a carto..

So my warning. Own 2 Dids and a back up pv. Because once you go DiD you never go back.!

As soon as I read "the blow IMR aws..." I immediately got up in arms and was about to reply, but then I saw this post and realized that there's not much I can do to improve upon what you wrote d! I have to agree about the MNKEs, they truly are the hardest hitting batts for mechanical mods, but even if placenta had them, he'd still be capped at a weak 3.5A limit ahahahahah. And anyways, in terms of the provari, the 2000mah AW imrs are much better anyways! As they'll sustain an unloaded charge of >3.3v longer than the Panasonics will, which is the minimum voltage the provari requires before it dies.
Thank you for laying down all of the facts d, your post should absolutely be cited in the DID forum index post on page 1!

Check this AkkuDB !

IMO - THE BEST battery out there is the MNKE IMR 18650, 2nd place - AW IMR batts in diff sizes. The 18650 in 1600 size does better than the newer bigger one. Genisis especially needs all the power it can get. IMO - IMR's only

Someone recently sent me some new tenergy Lipo's - they do not hit as well as my 3 month old AW's - can tell as soon as I fire up the A-2 or Odys

My favorite batteries are panasonic CGR18650CH

Wow! Lots of great info! Thanks for your thoughts, insights and input everyone!
With the ShortStop fuse, and a great battery that hits hard like the MNKE... I can't wait to rock my roller! and LT!
x's and o'x for this! :hug: :kiss:

Thanks man. I was loosing it. So nice to get a great vape again. It's been 4 days! My did is still in the modified mode to. I'm afraid if I sneeze I'll be back crying like a girl. No offense girls. Yall just cry a lot.
