Where to get the best batteries

[cocacola31173]

Im looking to buy some AW batteries to try out. 18650 and 18350. I have been using Efest batteries that I got from Crystal Clear vaping but they do not last long at all.

Does anyone know of a reputable vendor that would have them a good price?

Thanks!

Got some AW 18350's on the way from RTD Vapor AW Batteries

as for 18650, I went with Panasonic 18650 from fasttech due to the praise it gets around here.

$10.03 and free shipping CPASTE13SPRING for a 5% discount too!

I've been getting all of my batteries (AW IMR) from RTD for almost a year. Usually have the best prices, great service, and fast shipping.

I broke my usual rule to use only AW brand and got a couple of Efests to try because of a slightly higher mAh rating and being less expensive. Within a month one of them died. It's back to AW for me. They've never let me down. I still have a couple of AW 18650 IMR's that are a year old in a daily rotation and still going strong. (*I'm using a Pila charger which some say uses algorhythms which can prolong battery life).

I've read those reviews too, the Pila is indeed a fine charger that every other manufacturer tries to emulate and compares itself against. The closest, to my knowledge, is the sysmax/nitecore.

I get my AWs from Litehound, been to their shop several times. If they weren't local (& I try to support local vendors) RTD is always great prices, and like Litehound, can be sure you have real AWs, not rewrapped unknowns.

I'll suggest RTDvapor as well. I've ordered from them several times and have always had great experiences.
