geordie_vaperhiya, I think that all the Purple range are a higher wattage needed for lower resistance coils. If your going that route i can't see any advantage for you.

For 50 P more, why not, if you can get non-fake AW near the price that will be better.

Its up to you, it's hard to say but I would suspect the AW were better value in the long term. I got a couple of Efest red ones form Torchy that have been fine fo 1.5 ohm +.

geordie_vaper the purple Efest 18500 is 1000mAh and flat top whereas the normal red Efest 18500 is 1100mAh and button top ... if you don't intend sub-ohming and don't need flat tops then I would advise sticking with the red Efests as they are the same price and you are getting an extra 100 mAh.

You can get the red EFest in both flat and button top, I have read that for the 18350 the flat tops perform better.

I only use original AW's or Purple Efest's in 18500 or 18350 As far as 18650 is concerned I also go for Sony's VTC4 or better I have tried the Efest V2's but their lifespan is much lower than both of the other 2 - and don't even think of sub-ohming with them. Cheers

The red efests can go down to 0.7 ohms but they wont last at all. If you think you might want to try sub oh, s or just want something that lasts then the sony vtc4 is the best imo. I can vape on a 1 ohm coil for almost two days solid on one charge with them. Outstanding batteries.
They also come out on top in tests, better than the purple efests.
