spinner1300 vs 18350 batteries

[airoh69]

Hi,
I am thinking of getting the sigelei zmax v3 with some 18350 batteries. Have searched all over but didnt find any answer that will satisfy me. So, currently i have a joeyetech 650 twist and a vision spinner 1300 mah. I like to see battery life no in hours but in how many ml you can vape with depending ofcourse of the tank. So i am using an aerotank with stock coils and with the twist i can vape around 2.2ml and with my spinner i can go around 4-5 ml. So my spinner can last me the whole day. So if i get the zmax v3 with 2 900mah or 800mah batteries will i have the same vaping as my single spinner ? How many ml can a 18350 efest 800mah on an aerotank do ?

Can't address the zmax but with my Vamo5 in 350 mode, it's only good for 4ml max...however your vaping style with determine this most accurately. My experience has been that my Spinners last longer at 3.4-3.6v setting.

I'd personally recommend using a high drain battery (IMR or li-mn) for a regulated mod like the ZMax for the most optimal performance. The best high drain 18350 battery made today is the AW 18350 IMR battery which has 700 mAh. (There's more to choosing a good battery than just choosing the one with the most mAh. Many battery manufacturers overstate the mAh rating of their batteries, AW tends to understate theirs.)

AW 18350 IMR 700 mAh battery (high drain)

I typically get 7 - 8 hours use with one of these in my Mini Provari. I consume 2 - 3 ml of juice a day, so I guess that works out to 1 ml per 8 hours on a battery.

You'll get at least 13 hours use with a 1300 mAh eGo Spinner, just due to the double capacity of the battery compared to an 18350 battery.

Might be interesting to compare the replacement costs between the eGo Spinner ($27 retail) vs the AW 18350 IMR replaceable battery ($7 retail).

I get a good day-day and a half out of my 1300mah Spinners. Although I feel that time is getting a little shorter since I've been using BDC's

I went and bought the zmax and i love it. I have 2x 900mah batteries, and i am very happy with it.

Ive heard good things about the zmax battery's.

You are comparing the largest ego battery to a mid sized rechargeable. It's not exactly a fair comparison there. It would be better to compare an 18650 to a 1300mah spinner, I believe the 18650 wins there.

However, if you insist on the 18350 comparison... Look at it from the standpoint of having one charging, while using the other and always having one available (by having an extra one), instead of toting around extra ego batteries. You also reduce thread wear with a mod, as opposed to taking the tank off, every time you charge an ego.

I have the Zmax "Mini" and when I'm using it in single 18350 battery mode (without the extension) I only get about 2.5-3hours use out of it. The Mini shuts off at 3.2 volts. That's about 2ml for me.

Wow at what watts are you people using the mods. I am using the mod at 8w and the 900mah batteries can last me more than 2.5 ml

I can't speak for anyone else, but I'm using dual coils and generally running between 1.4 and 2.2 ohms. I also don't personally tote my mod with me when out and about (usually). I use 650mah passthroughs for that. I also tend to use 12-14w.
