Way to go whole hog, lol.
For 45W as your highest setting, anything with a 15A max continuous discharge rating with the highest mAh value you can find. Look up batteries that have been tested by mooch in this forum, and stick with OEM batteries for best accuracy of actual battery capabilities.

This is what Mooch said to use, so I bought some.
And, you know what?? He was right!!! They're as good as it gets.
So you want "MOLICEL P26A" batteries.
They are the new "IMR's" of the battery world

If you are looking at never vaping above 45 watts with the batteries in question, you'll be able to squeeze out another 10-15% mAh's (cycle capacity) over a Molicel P26A (2600 mAh)/P28A (26-2700 mAh). The Samsung 30Q's and Sony/Murata VTC6's offer around 3000 mAh's at 15 Amps. However, with Molicels, you have tons of head room for additional heat with normal use before it starts to greatly effect the health of the battery, which is going to be the number one killer of your battery's overall health over time.
Think of it this way: Let's say a car's tachometer redlines at 6500 rpms. Would you rather have a battery that's consistently running at 6500 rpms, or a battery that's running around 4000 rpms? That's what I mean when I say head room.
Would I trade 10-15% mAh's for another 10 Amp head room (15A vs 25A)? Definitely. I have 14 of the Molicel P26A's and 6 of the P28A's. Molicel makes extremely good batteries and their price in comparison to the bigger name brands like Sony/Murata, Samsung, Panasonic/Sanyo, LG, etc. generally can't be beat. They often also boast higher legitimate, tested specs than the other brands.
I'd agree with tj, just grab some Molicel P26A or P28A 18650's and you won't be disappointed, if 18650's are the size of battery you are looking for.

With a 2 ohm coil on a single cell mech mod (figure @ 4v), that's 8 watts @ 2 amps.
Wonders if I'm safe.
BTW, I use that same build on my Mako Midi (14500 with a 10 Amp CDR)

Wow! No I'm not that one, but those are some nice pieces. I want one!
