The 2.5 Provari must use a button top battery... the Radius uses a flat top.

Suggestions ,

I like the Samsung’s. The Radius came with the 25r 2500mAh

Samsung 25R 18650 2500mAh 20A Battery INR18650-25R - 18650 Battery Store

I use the Samsung 30q 3000mAh the most:

Samsung 30Q 18650 3000mAh 15A Battery | INR18650-30Q

There are other batteries people will recommend to be sure.

They are available as flattops or with an add on button top. This makes them a little long for the 2.5’s. Just don’t screw them down all the way. Otherwise, you may break your 2.5 boards loose.

There are 3500mAh batteries available, but you have to keep an eye on your amps. I am not comfortable dropping down to an 8-10 amp battery, just to get the extra 500mAh, myself.

It is coming up on the actual Christmas Eve and I understand the importance of letting someone know that they are thought supportively of, and stopped to have a prayer for...hoping Anna is doing well this season.

If someone is in communication with her...let her know.

Whatever the reason for banning, it was near-sighted. Just deleting the post may have been appropriate. In the Provarinati Diner and Saloon, which is a lounge forum, we look out for others.

This is Christmas, and we should all wish her a Merry Christmas.
Yes, I agree with all you said, which you said very well and with great heart.
Thanks for it @Frenchfry1942

And, given the governmental crushing of day to day human contact, with its (hopefully) unintended consequences, banning someone from our little community may have its own unintended consequences. I hope that's not the case with Anna.

Outside of what's sadly become known as "bubbles", some have become reliant on our internet communities for friendship and conviviality and warmth.

But, seriously ECF, delete posts if you feel it's necessary. But, throwing folks out in these days of depressing aloneness is heartless and cruel.
