Question for all: I've been using Ultrafire 16340's, rated at 880mah in my Destroyer. I need new batts, and I am going to switch over to AW IMR's, 550mah. I know that mah is often exaggerated on the UF's.

Has anyone any idea how much the battery life will actually differ between the two?

Personally, I wish the RSM's used an 18350, but it is what it is...

I have seen comparison charts of many battery sizes and makes. Since I switched to 16340 batteries I have not noticed much difference in how often I have to change them out compared to the 18350.

Usually once a day irregardless of the type, UF, TF or AW or 16340/18350. I certainly don't actually time it as my vaping habits change from day to day but a battery swap once a day is something I do without much thought.

Mr. Chet! How you doing matey?

I'm doing alright sir captain! My hatchback has been leaking coolant all over past few weeks, and I was relieved to find out today it was the thermostat housing which is less than $100 job...

Yo ho! My family is gone! I have my apartment back! Woohoo!

hahaha

How about AW Protected ICR123 16340 which is 750mAh? That's what I've been using. I vape 2-3 ml a day and it's good for good couple days for me before recharge. I think the punch that IMRs give has no effect on voltage regulated mods, so I decided to go with higher mAh ones. IMRs are best for mechanical mods I heard, but then IMRs are probably safer.



Arrr, here was a request for engraving, turned out even better than I had thought it would, Destroyer!


Nice~! It really looks like a military device now.

AW 16340 protected are more than often between 550-580mah . They are the only battery that i'm aware of from AW where the capacity has been exagerated. Trustfire 16340 880 are in general between 580-600 mah, and a lot cheaper. I go through 5.5-6ml on a set of 18350 batteries in the 5.1 Cutlass, and through 3.5ml on the Dreadnought.

Can someone tell me what tanks will fit in the Destroyer? I currently have J-Tanks and Lil Mama tanks. Thanks!

Lil' mama won't fit as its cap diameter is wider than the tank's. The tank itself fits but the cap is too big to fit into the destroyer hole.

TANKS that fit:
-Cartomators
-Map
-Lava
-Chibi
-J-Tank
-DC Tanks

I'm sure there's more that fits.
