Vaporshark replacement battery

[blakey]

Holding an 18350 against the supplied lipo suggests that if it did fit it would be very tight

[mybad]

Just held a 18350 on top of the VS and it would suggest that it will not fit even if the case wall thickness was only 1mm thick.

Well im gonna keep it for a week or two to make sure no faults develope on it then i will open it up and try, .. from what ive read online if you open them up it voids any warranty so will wait and see...

What exactly would stop it going in... could the enclosure be modified in any way

Well the newer RDNA which takes the 18650 is .22" thicker so that tells a story in itself, it is also taller by .25"

In that case i will just have to wait a short while and have a look. where there is a will there is a way, hopefully ....lol.. if it cant be done i will just move it on and find something else,... as per a post earlier on this thread, if you can find RC batteries with the same specs why aint you using those

I haven't got to needing one as yet , but by the time I do need one then hopefully supply will be plentiful .

I had a look and the specs were pointing me to r/c batteries lol

Why dont you just use that then, assuming they are the same specs.... ive actually got a Vaporshark on its way to me, i dont do ultra low ohm and only vape at around 8 to 9 watts, the second i have the time that stock battery is coming out and 18350 is going in, i have no issue switching batteries out every 3 + hours.

Two reasons I dont want to convert to a standard battery.
Having taken the cover off in the past I found that the buttons are held in place by it and they drop out with ease.
Also I dont really want to carry a screwdriver around with me when the standard will last all day.
The only reason im looking for a replacement original now is because the v2 has a standard 18 series so I want a spare before they become even harder to find, if at all.
