Orbtronic Batteries?

[Sokly]

I'm still new to the whole mech and sub olm coils thing and I was watching pbusardo's video on these batteries. I searched them up and found the 2900MAh and 3100MAh batteries. I was wondering which are safer and are just overall better.

2900MAh: NCR18650PD High Drain Panasonic 18650 2900 mAh Li-ion Battery free shipping from Florida

3100MAh: PANASONIC 18650 PROTECTED NCR18650A 3100mAh FREE Shipping from Florida-USA. 18650 cell-Made in Japan, Protection IC's-Made in Japan

Both seem pretty similar to me. The 3100 mAh description says it has double protection built-in, it may be a better choice by a slim margin.

Since you admit that you are new to mechs and sub ohm coils, I do hope you have already committed a large amount of time in researching how an RBA works, how to properly and safely set one up, have a multimeter and know how to use it, and know how to test the resistance of your coils.

Insure that you mech mod has vent holes and a collapsable hot spring. A Vape Safe Fuse is not a bad idea to use for added protection. Batteries : Vape Safe Mod Fuse 2

Despite what some will say, these are advanced delivery devices and can be quite dangerous if used in the wrong hands. Ultra low resistance coils are a controversial subject here because of their safety issues.

Good luck and happy vaping.

I'm wondering how well these batteries will work for us who use the Boge LRs in a mech? They seem to have great output, and 2900 mah... That's just BEAST!

Great advice from a guy who knows! Get a multimeter. They can be found cheap (under 10 bucks) & check your coils before firing it up. And don't discharge your batteries too low, I notice a drop in performance at about 3.5 volts on my AW IMR 18650s and change out after that. Protected or not, mech mods have no safety cutoff so the only way to vape safely is to be knowledgeable about your gear.

I just ordered a set of these: NCR18650PD High Drain Panasonic 18650 2900 mAh Li-ion Battery free shipping from Florida Going to try them in my Vamo. If all goes well, will test them in my Provari (once it arrives).

if the URL gets mangled then search for an Orbtronics post in the GG forum by Bishopheals. You will learn more about these batteries than you ever wanted to know. I just stumbled on that thread earlier this morning

EDIT: should have mentioned they seem to be awesome batteries

Just email Orbtronic and get the right answer. 2900mah PD is much better battery for higher current (sub ohms). 3100mAh is made for flashlights, not the right choice for sub ohms.

For mech mods PD protected would be the best.

They're working great for me, both in a Provari and Hana.

Get those and you're good to go

EDIT:

Here you have a better deal, 2 for under $15 https://www.fasttech.com/products/1233700
I ordered those yesterday.

 

[Strontium]

Fasttech ships from China.

There are many vapers still waiting for cells to be released by US customs.
Shipping Li-ion from and to US could be pretty tricky, and looong.

I do not know for your country, but for us in the USA not worth a risk IMHO.

Also your link is to the flat top cells.

I bought a 2 pack of the NCR18650PD High Drain Panasonic 18650 2900 mAh Li-ion Battery from Orbtronic for my vamo and they are a great battery. I also picked up a Nitecore I4 intellicharger with them. Good deal. Now looking for a good 18350 battery.
