Never go full obsolete to soon! There's no coming back from that!

Life motto if I ever heard one.

Plus, "bad, bad music." I really have a much better idea for bad music, and it's called "This is why I hate autotune." LOL, I have spared y'all this so far, but it's the "studio" version of a song.....

Followed by a live concert! Doesn't that sound fun? It would only ruin music that was created AFTER autotune got big, so real talent like Freddy Mercury is safe (also, sadly, dead.)

I'm getting REALLY hot under the collar about it, man. There's only so much older stuff I can listen to, but MAN you should hear these bands if there were truth in advertising laws, well, they'd all be in musician's prison.

I get it studio people I GET IT. But there's a big difference between cleaning something up a bit, and OH WHAT THEY SOUND LIKE REALLY.

I mean I've listened to "best live shows" lists and everything and when U2 gets cited as a modern talented group a) those dudes are old enough to be my grandfather and I am already old enough to be a grandmother and b) I LOVE U2 they were my teen idol rock band but uh, come ON.

It just makes me want to die. But, you never go full obsolete too soon! Etc. LOL, let me know if there is "interest" I have some GREAT and by that I mean TERRIFYING stuff, and it's not IDOL in fact frankly a whole ton of Idol sounds great compared to this stuff!

Legit!

Thanks. I guess they have gone obsolete then, for me anyway.

I see some panasonics at orbtronics, but they are flat tops.

Ok here is my List so far :)

Kinoko IMR18650 2250mAh (Gray) = Really good reviews but can find no info on the company or the cells they use :unsure:

KeepPower 18500 (black) = I seen pictures of Button Top, but I think they were fake :(

Efest IMR 18500 1000mah Li-Mn Button Top batteries (Purple) = Some people love Efest :)

Nitecore IMR 18490 1100mAh (Black-Yellow) = Review said Cells were not consistent :(

AWT 18490 1200mAh (Yellow) = From the reviews I would pick this one, :):)
Plus I have a few of these that were given to me in a used mod that I bought and they worked fine.

From the little bit of research I did tonight, I would go with the AWT or the Efest if I was in a pinch.
But you could send @Mooch (battery expert) a message on here and ask for his opinion just to make sure. :)

    I have a few 2.5's 18500 size, that I'm wanting to use 18650's in with the bottom extension cap, so I can dump my old 18500 batteries. Can't seem to come up with a good 18500 anymore, but I forget, can the flat top batteries be used in the 2.5's?

    They are getting hard to find. I recently bought a bunch of them as well as 18650. I also got some of the adapters to turn flat top into button top and those things work just fine. I thought you bought some of those when we were discussing bats earlier, no???

    You lot think you have problems with your wildlife, that's nothing compared to the problems caused by both the Lesser Spotted Volitant Haggis and the Greater Highland Haggis. The latter has been known to eat red squirrels for breakfast before going out for the day, worrying sheep and frightening horses in the street. The former is far more duplicitous, it flies backwards, ostensibly to keep dust out of it's eyes, but it's deceit lies in the illusion that when you think it is retreating, it is in fact in attack mode.

    p.s. I've just got home from a good party. :banana:

    no I didn't. Worth looking into, thanks. I had forgotten all about them.
