Which new batteries?

[Jerri]

Since I've been using a microcoil and cotton for some reason performance drops off completely when the battery hits 3.5v. Any other tanks (aspires mainly) and I only realise the battery is low when I get a low battery warning. But for some reason the microcoil doesn't seem to like that. Soon as the battery hits 3.5v there's very little vapour.

Tthis means I'm only getting a few hours of moderate Vaping from a battery.

When I got my first mod I bought 6 batteries. Used four and kept two for spare. I've just put the two spare in rotation as given the others are two years old almost they're not holding charge very well.

Now there seems to be a million different types so after some advice.

Need two 18650 batteries. Ones that will last as long as possible so as high a mah rating as possible (I think that's right). And must fit in the Vamo and the SID.

Any advice?

Sounds like you got reasonable life out of those batteries, good are rated to a max of 400-500 recharge cycles of usable life. For those mods the high mAh Panasonic's have got to be high on your list, IIRC Torchy does some re-branded Panasonic that are good value. Because they have high capacity they will take longer to charge.

If you think you may want to up the power or lower the ohms then the Sony VTC4 or VTC5 fit all occasions.

I think so, IIRc it was ronaldo that mentioned them recently, he was on the thread anyway (I realise that ronaldo being on the thread is not narrowing it down much).

nice batteries them go for it I would

[geordie_vaper]

if your using them in a sid or vamo would go for the highest mah so panasonics

[chykensa]

I have 4 x 3400mah green Panasonics and they are brilliant. I have had 2 for more than a year and they still are performing as well as the new ones. Wholeheartedly recommended!!

[Jerri]

Thanks. Will go for the above linked panasonics.
