TangsFire 18650 Batteries?

[RPadTV]

Anyone have any experience with these 3,600 mAh TangsFire 18650 batteries? I've never heard of the company before and I wonder how honest the 3,600 mAh rating is. The specs seem too good to be true: 3,600 mAh and rechargeable up to 1,800 times. I don't think I've seen a protected battery with those claims. I'm doubtful, but would love to be wrong about these.

Here is a review on Amazon for a similar ultrafire battery they also sell and claim 4000mah,

I bought some of these batteries and they are not 4000mah. I tested them and they were only 2600mah. This means they are likely repackaged no-name Chinese batteries, which means you don't know how good they are or if they will even last 10 charges. They might even be used batteries that have been repackaged. Clearly a scam, I don't know why Amazon even allows these to be sold. Buyer beware on this.

Indeed. I've read that the "name brand" manufacturers get the cream of the crop from the people making the cells (Panasonic, Sanyo...) and the rest are dumped out to whomever will take and rebrand them.

If it looks to good to be true...

I tend to stay away from batteries that have the word 'fire' in the name...

U can try panasonic ncr18650B 3100mah or 3400mah. U can get them on ebay for about 15$. I have 3 of them and with my LT lambo i can vape all day long with one batt. I'm using about 5-7ml per day.
