Ah, So honest of you Steve.

But as has already been stated...

Opinion without verification is worthless.

I've seen the videos of the dirty dish rag guy- who may well have blown himself up, as he hasn't posted in a long time, and of the little Chinese guy who is a professional vaper, to make a determination some things are just silly, without having to try them...

IMHO, the Samsung 25r is the best battery currently WIDELY AVAILABLE (emphasis done, because there are next gen batteries with more capacity, and supposedly you can still get VTc5... So I don't want some smart donkey interjecting about newer batteries that have not proven their reliability). A relatively close second is the LG HE4. In my experience as well as what I've seen from others, though, the 25R edges the HE4 out by a bit. My only complaint about the powder blue colored 25R is that it seems like the wrap is not durable, so you have to be careful with them, and don't be surprised if and when you need them re-wrapped. Word on the street is that the 25R are starting to come with a green wrap like the old Panasonics and Sonys had, so that point may be moot at this point.

Thank you for giving the ANTZ and govt more ammo to regulate vaping as we know it out of existence. Just remember, how folks in here bash folks who Vape differently than they do-- the rest of the general public put even the lowly ProVari 2.5 in the same category, and look at it the same way. Anything bigger than a rel cigarette is considered extreme by the majority of the general public.

I'm vaping a Rogue right now, 0.5 ohms and the flavor is intense like I'm sipping caramel and vanilla. It's whisper quiet. Told my noisy old carto-tanks to "keep it down".

I do have a Nuppin that's running kinda sizzley, poppin a lot of juice too - but I think it just needs re-wicking.

Depending on use.
I do love my Samsungs (funny - I dropped one and the wrapper ripped - first time I'm gonna rewrap a battery!). But my LG HG 2, the brown ones? They are competing - so far, it looks like longer run time in a good, safe battery. Even if the high-amp performance is better in a 25R, for ME, a longer run time in the 4-volt range is more useful, as I tend to run under 10 amps anyway...

Provape sales the Samsung 25R, and recommended it for the P3.
So with that said, if you worked at Provape, and was asked what are the safe numbers you would recommend for the Radius using the Samsung 25R what would they be?
Safe numbers meaning, how high of wattage & Amps and how low should it fire in Ohms? ;)

They stuffed so many things in a small package that they don't work well. That's the point, but that's China mod manufacturing for you...
wow, such prejudice against a country. Obviously, you have never used or held an SX mini. A Chinese made mod with equal or even better quality than anything ProVape has done... Not bashing ProVape, but a blanket statement that anything coming from China is poor quality shows great prejudice. Speaking of Chines made "junk" ever hear of a Ming vase?...or perhaps heard of something called "the Great Wall"?

But keep talking, your bigotry shows very clearly through your hate speech.
