18350 batteries more than 900mah. where?

[Deleted]

seen some on FT but i was told not to buy batteries with fire in the name. so any recommendations?

[Karma]

You'll be lucky

I would suspect exaggeration on a mAh higher than 900 on such small batteries!

ah ! i shall order some grey ones from FT tomorrow then. just have to take 6 out with me. its for the ickle pipe you see

I haven`t seen the ones on FT, but if they`re a cheap brand, could than be false economy if the mah is exaggerated - and might be better in the long run to get fewer but better slightly lower mah (but genuinely rated) ones ?

Hi,
I have 8 of the orange 1200mah ultrafires from fast tech and i must say i have had no problems at all and id say they last a lot longer than my smok 800mah bats,
I chose not to believe the fire in the name thing, but i did see on a torchy guide they were the best 18350s thats why i brought them.

@spikeyfridge.

I have been using the `orange` coloured 18350 batt`s from FT and they do work well, and last longer than my eFast 800mAh batteries.

They are good value.

Can`t comment on the `grey` ones.

Happy vaping.

I can comment on the orange Ultrafires (1200mah ) and the 'fasttech greys' (900mah).
I ordered both (Ultrafires mainly as backups)

The grey ones last a lot longer and charge quite a bit quicker - go figure ???.

But for the price of them, so far, the Ultrafires work as intended - enough time in my mini-LT to get one or two grey ones charged

(I think robby rates the 18650 grey ones  - I'd buy both again)

Any chance of a link to that guide please mate?

I thought AW IMR, Efest & the blue Torchy batteries were considered the best 18350s

Torchy said on UKV that he tested those orange 18350 Ultrafires and they were 825mAh..so not exactly the "1200mah" they are being sold as ???

It wasnt this one

It was quite some time ago cant find the original,
but as you can see from this one the voltage drop off is further along the graph so you get high power for longer from what i gather(could be wrong not 100% sure)
Either way they work fine and they are about £5 for a pair, cant be bad

I have been using only Ultrafire and Trustfire protected batteries.

I'm not sure why I would pay £9-11 for one 18350 when I can get two for £7.99?

If I was a semi-pro vaper maybe I would want a carbon fibre mod with dials and switches so I could have the same gear as the pro's. Maybe it would make a difference that my 1200mah battery was actually 850mah, to be honest I would still use them at 600mah as I would still get 2 for less than the price of 1 and do extra changes.

Not wishing to detract from those who want or need to have the top kit it's just that for about 90% of vapers it makes no difference except to the bank balance.

To clarify I was including P+P in the previous post.
