Canno,

I don't think you want that battery. It is not an IMR it has built in protection and it is limited to Max. Continuous Discharging Current: 4.87A.

For the same money you can buy IMRs (Brand Name) with a mAh rating of 3000 mAh @ 30 Amp continuous. "just saying". ;)

Which one has 30A CONTINUOUS with 3000mAh? I see mostly 20A, with 35A burst.
I agree - IMR/INR, high discharge, unprotected are what people have told me to get.

That's why I think it's better to buy built-in regulated battery mods, especially new vapors, and its safer for the community as a whole imo. Takes all the battery mistakes out of the equation. Which can lead to damage of persons and vapings image.. Sure a battery can go bad but at least it won't be overloaded with is a guarantee it will vent.

Luckily I think the phase of shops offering new vapors mechs with .2 builds is passing.

If manufactures install safe batteries that are rated to the maximum limit of the device, you have no worry of using wrong batteries.

Just my :2c:

You know I love my lipos built in. Lol

Sitting down, facing forward.
I just love the posts asking "What's wrong with my rig? It's a .01 ohm coil and I'm using a purple, noname, brand battery that's rated at 50 amp on my mech mod that I just bought and it gets so hot I can't hold it. This is my first vaping experience and it doesn't work!". I guess folks would go buy an explosive and not know anything about that either, then complain when they get blown up.

Is 10 seconds considered continuous? Sorry I posted.

Don't worry, its good that you asked this so we can help. The 25r would be fine but not the ncr protected.

If anything happens as a malfunction of device it can go continuous. Button sticks, autofire, software malfunction. Plus that battery has potential to explode. Never ever use that protected battery in a mech.

The battery can only handle 15w fully charged. That barely leaves a minimum 20% safety overhead either. You shouldn't use more than 80% of a batteries amp rating ever. As the battery drains so does its capability to handle amperage or the amperage increases due to lower volts. I would maintain more like 30%-50% overhead for many reasons one being longevity.

A protected battery can cause problems with regulated mods also.

Yeah, I need to realize not everyone has 40 years in the electrical trades like I do. I simply can't understand why people that don't know a volt or a watt or an amp or an ohm from a bump in the road want to jump right into sub ohming right off the bat. And I didn't think about somebody like that throwing it in a mech.

Cindy,

Just after I bought these several of the Brand name folks came out with the same thing in 3000 mAh versions. I don't have a link at the moment but you can Google them or take a look at what 101vape.com has.

I bought these about three days too early: Sony VTC5 18650 3.7V 2600 mAh 30A Continuous Discharge Battery (Pack of 3)

Oh, I am not going to worry.

I deleted my post. I would appreciate if quotes of it could be deleted.
Illumn is a great place to order from though. :) I've met the guys in person (set up my orders for will-call when I have errands down there) - really cool guys! :thumb:

Just when I make recommendations like that, I try to pick ones that are safe for EVERYBODY, because you just never know what some oddball's gonna try to do with them. Even if with disclaimers: they may apply to them now, but later on who knows? :2c:

It would help if you named the person that quoted you that you would like deleted.

Also don't take the comments so seriously. If you are concerned about my comments I will try to help you but let me know what you want deleted.

By the way I used several of those protected batteries myself back in the Kanthal days with watt limited Attys so your not alone. :)

Ok, your post number 341, I think. I put out a bad recommendation. I would appreciate seeing it gone.
