Panasonic CGR18650CH Rechargeable 2250mAh 3.7V 18650 Lithium batteries
authentic cells / 2-pack $9.53, free shipping with vapor joe code "tenoff"

OMG!
Well, I really didn't need any batteries, but at less than $5 ea for top quality high drain batteries I had to pull the trigger!

Thank You!

Call me crazy, but I still use the $15 Trustfire chargers that usually come with kits. I haven't had any issues with them so I haven't seen any reason to upgrade. Yeah it takes a long time for a batt to charge, but that's why I've got more than one.

I've got one of those as well.
I only use it in a pinch though...
I don't feel like babysitting my charger.
For a couple bucks more you can get an Xtar or Nitecore that quits charging when you reach the proper voltage.

The Trustfire I have quits charging once full charge is reached.

The Trustfire tr-001 charger that most vendors sell continues to deliver a trickle charge after the light goes green.

Have you verified that your charger actually stops the charge with a multimeter?
Mine turns the light green @ 4.17V.
If I fall asleep before removing my batteries they will go above 4.2V.
How far? I'm not sure.
Last time it happened my meter read 4.22.

I know there's trickle, but I never leave the battery on long enough for it to make a difference. I don't leave any devices to charge after they're full, whether they actually are supposed to keep on charging or not, with the exception of my laptop because running it while plugged in actually helps preserve the battery. That's not stupidity; it's just good practice. Just because there's a sprinkler system in place doesn't mean you should set fires every day.

You shouldn't have any rattling with your batteries if you got the new version with the gold spring. Mine doesn't rattle with either size battery. I also use a Xtar battery charger that is wonderful.

Just my Ibtanked tank for the top and it looks so pretty! Just remember if you want to use any Kanger t3's on it you will need a adapter but other then that its great!

 

[cherrycakes]

yea my evod fits but the t3 does not.
Oh well that ....... leaks anyway xD

pretty sure it's a generic POS

Congrats on your new PV!
I rec'd shipping notice on the Panasonic batteries you linked to. (thanks again for that! )
It'll be interesting to see how long the free ship takes from Hong Kong.

I think I ended up buying from crystal clear vaping, they haven't shipped yet

I'm a little late to the party, but this is a good deal on some really good batteries.


I read in one of my threads that panasonic discontinued this battery, so jump on them while you can.

You should scroll up a bit.
The link that cherrycakes provided is an even better deal on that battery.

I just grabbed 2 of these. Based on reviews merchant is bound to be slow, price is great though

2pcs TRUSTFIRE 18350 3.7V 1200MAH Rechargeable Lithium Batteries with Protection (Red) EB316R - $8.29 - Affordable Batteries & Chargers


The reviews of this seller are godawful but if i can get the two batts for 8.29 in a month ill be fine with that. Ill report back if this is just a bad seller!

Users have reported problems using Trustfire protected batteries with their Vamos.
I would cancel the order if it's not too late.

I've heard bad things about trustfire. Just sayin

Vamo was my first upgrade from the basic egos. I still remember my first vape at high wattage. Its a totally different experience. Get some 18350s for stealth and 18650s for all day usage.

I get all my batteries and chargers at RTD Vapor https://www.rtdvapor.com/online-store They have great prices on AW IMR batteries and Xtar chargers. Checkout the AW IMR 2000 mah battery for your vamo.

Heya guys, those batteries are on Amazon too for the same price (or lower). I just bought some last week and used my free Prime 2 day shipping.

They make fake 3000mah and 4000mah batteries that are really something like 1000mah. But if you know you're getting lower capacity batteries than advertised, they're not bad.... at least, I haven't had any issues with them, but I'm only on my third set. However, you may be right about them not being good for the Vamo, because I use them in a Vape-Pro, but as far as I know both devices have the exact same features in regards to power regulation. BTW, these have been lasting me about 1-2 days before a recharge is necessary... the 2200mah batteries last about 3-4 days. So, if you're willing to make the compromise, it's not like they're going to fail on you within a few hours like those little 510 disposable auto batteries do. However, DO go with better quality batteries if you can. The only reason I'm even running them is because I just want to find out if they at least work decently as 1000mah batteries.

EFEST IMR's sold in pairs from Vapor Beast. That's the word for reliable batts and an Intelligent Xtar charger, AWESOME!!! Tim is the Beast of customer satisfaction. I ordered all my favorite gadgets from him & he just re-stocked yesterday. Sadly, the IClear 30's haven't come in yet. Can't wait to get my SS VAMO. Tims pricing is one of the best in this industry and always FREE Ship. VAPE ON! See you in the Vapehaze
