Well, tomorrow will be 1 year since my first REO. I have 5 18650 batteries and they need to be replaced. RTD has the 2000 mah & the 1600 mah. I am thinking I will order the 2000 mah ones. Anyone have experience with both? Thanks.

IF its a mechanical Reo or devise I believe the 1600s are reccommended. If the devise has electronics then the 2000s are recommended. THis was arrived at by the owner of Super T testing both types of batteries.
I didn't know that was the case. I've used both in my Grand, and honestly I don't notice a difference.
The only thing I was considering was this: I was under the impression that the 1600 was REPLACED by the 2000 mah version (I could be wrong here). If that is the case, the 1600s have been on the shelf since at least February, when the 2000 mah was released.
Please let me know if I'm mistaken...
they are the same size I have both and I thought I was getting a longer vape times with the 2000mah in other VV tube mods but it could be all in my mind
ooh cool, was always a bit afrait to buy more mah's then advised, as i thought they were bigger 
There's been a lot of positive feedback about these batteries as an alternative to AW IMR 18650's in the Grand. Just FYI.
The 2000 mah are SLIGHTLY longer, but not as long as a protected 18650. It's not a problem in either my Grand or my Provari, but it is just a bit longer (perhaps 1-2 mm).
Still plenty of room for the spring to collapse if necessary in the Grand.

Its post #20. I think its probably splitting hairs.

I agree not a whole lot of difference than I can tell in the Woodvil or Woodchuck.
I ordered 1 of each IMRs. Going to see if I can tell a difference, also may order a couple of the ones Tripp linked above. I guess a year of use is pretty good.
Just for you Jeannette....a tad.
thank you!
gee, amazing, now me less afraid to buy me more mah's
The 2000 mah AW batteries do last longer than the 1600 ones. I ordered one of the Panasonic batteries that Tripp linked to earlier, found one with a button top for 8.99 w/ free shipping.

I really don't pay much attention to batt charge life, but I always take my Grand to work with a full charge and somehow noticed I had to swap the AW IMR 1600's around 4:00pm, whether they were new or 10 months old (I was rotating 3 each). Then I bought some Panasonic IMR 2250's and noticed I didn't have to swap them until after I got home around 6:00pm. IMO that is a significant amount of extra vape time (YMMV), which is less hassle and is why I buy REO's.
