Secondly, what device is that off to the left?

I'm pretty sure that device doesn't need batteries.

A couple of them say 20a but mine said 15a, is that a problem?:

Dang. I need new batteries. All of them need to be replaced.

 

[Skold]

Me too grr, after hearing efest are dodgy

 

[Bunnykiller]

abuse any battery and it will vent....

14a isn't 110w.

Funny thing is, the 26650 Efest batteries test out well according to Mooch. Probably because there are so few manufacturers for them that they end up rewrapping "decent" cells.

I use one of these: Efest Metallic Purple 20A 3000mAh 18650 Bench Test Results...accurately rated 20A, looks like 30Q

It's been fine so far. Then again, I don't drain it very hard (giggity)

Boy with all the comments about using an eFest cell being unsafe and over rated you would actually use one? I was once offered a brand new one for FREE and I declined.

 

[mongo74]

I'm using it in a low wattage device, and according to @Mooch, it's a good 20a cell. I got it for free to test with a mod I bought at my local B&M, and it's been just fine. Then again, I don't use it like a mad man.

For 18650s, almost all my batteries are 25Rs. Yes, the 30Q is probably a better deal, but I like green.

For 26650s, there aren't a lot of choices. I would have gotten the iJoys, but I could never find them in stock, so I had to go with an Efest that mooch tested and recommended. Went with the green one to maintain color consistency among my batteries. Using one right now in my VT75 topped with my Merlin parallel SS ~0.5 ohm build and some toffee.

Did I mention I prefer green wrappers?

 

[SteveS45]

In this thread you are telling others to get rid of the ones they have so it is very surprising to see you now admitting to using one.

 

[SteveS45]

Uhhh, I would ditch those batteries in favor of genuine LG/Samsung/Sony cells.

DJLsb had a purple efest start venting in a mod at 14a.

You did post this so.................... Sort of conflicting if you see what I mean.

 

[mongo74]

Right, and that was a different efest, if you took the time to re-read my posts.

You know what? I've had enough of your condescending little jabs. This isn't the first one, but it damn well will be the last.

 

[mongo74]

BUT IT'S NOT ON A PICTURE IN FORNT OF MY FACE SO IT CAN'T BE TRUE.

Remember that? Hmph.

 

[SteveS45]

I am not being condescending I am trying to get some clarification.

 

[SteveS45]

What dies that have to do with eFest cells? You said get rid of them but now you say your using them so do you think they are good or ditch them all?
