So today i ordered a REO Mini... This mod takes a 14500 battery.

So where can I get the best 14500 and a charger?

The thionyl chloride chemistry has excellent power density but very limited applications. Beyond about 0.1A, the capacity falls off enormously. That is why they are excellent for memory backup: miniscule current is required, the cells self discharge veeery slowly, and they have great capacity for their size (at the tiny current).

I have heard rumors of a new SOCl2 that retains more capacity at higher currents, but have not seen any actual products. Besides, it would get pretty expensive to use disposable batteries in a vape!
