I have been looking at torchys batteries and noticed there are some 2600mah,can these be used in a vamo v5 or is there an upper limit ?.I am currently using efest 18650,2000mah which i am led to believe are really only 850mah.

I don't think your vamo will care what the mah is, only the dimensions.
Torchy is normally pretty reliable, also communicative - if you ask him what the true mah is likely to be at your preferred volt level he'll probably tell you. I don't suppose it'll be 2600 - these mah values are usually taken at a lower drain rate than we use, which makes the battery last longer. But it will probably be better than the Efest.

Efest's are NOT known for over stating their capacity. As Torchy's stock constantly changes if I was buying today I'd buy THESE as I prefer button tops as they make better contact in a charger IMO. 2600 mAh is a good capacity and would work well in a Vamo.

He's a battery geek/cyclist. No idea if he vapes, but he does all his own tests and knows what's what.
Easiest to contact him through UKV. He has a forum on there, and offers a discount if you buy directly.
