Hi! Recently returning vaper I have just brought an Innokin VTR and need to grab a battery for it. I have been buzzing around on google and seen various types and various mah ranges. I've also seen lots of warnings about batteries and it worrys me some.. Whats a recommended battery size to go a full day without charging with heavy usage? Is it safe to go with these over 3000 mah batteries? www.amazon.co.uk/Purple-Efest-18650-3100mah-Battery/dp/B00L0FIZ1U/ref=cm_cr_dp_asin_lnkI'm also curious about the 'don't charge your batteries over night' comments. With these Nitecore chargers - it seems to claim to shut off charging once it reaches it's optimum charge level so wouldn't it be safe to charge each night over night? Thanks!

Sony vtc5 is the best.

You can always take the batteries off the charger to go to bed and continue the charge in the morning

An Xtar SP2 will charge the VTC5's in about 90mins, that's just a catnap Contact Torchy, he had them for £15 not so long ago and may well still have some.

All electronic items have the potential for failure so it is always a good idea to switch off before sleep as far as batteries you won't go far wrong with the sonys and I would buy from torchy as he certainly knows his batteries

Thanks for all the advice. I didn't realize they charge in only a couple of hours so yeah no real need to be charging over night.
Who is Torch? I already have the Nitecore Intelli charge on order but definitely need the batteries..
Thanks!

Would you really need sony vtc 4 or 5 as the vtr wont fire that low on the ohms. I would go for the 3400mah pannies myself, huge vape time and can cope with anything you put on the vtr. Torchy on ebay: www.ebay.co.uk/sch/big_f_d_d/m.html?_nkw=&_armrs=1&_ipg=&_from=Can't get ukv to work to give you the link direct to him on there.

Yip they're definitely ok for your vtr. You can get higher capacity ones if you wanted a longer run time but those will keep you going.

I got a protank 3 and an aerotank to go on it and a pack of 1.8 ohm and 1.5 ohm coils. I don't plan on doing much else with it - both tanks after watching your reviews actually lol - you crack me up man Are those Panasonic 3400mah IMR batteries? I read I should be looking to use those as they are 'safer chemistry' and also they need to be unprotected, but it doesn't say on his post you linked to? I just want something simple I don't have to worry about - only just started with the vaping again and before this I only used Nucig cig-a-likes so there is probably a reasonable chance of me blowing my head off if I'm not careful Thanks!

Sorry i just linked to torchys page in ebay not a specific battery. Yes the 3400 mah imr panasonics is where i would go. You get two for the price and get huge vape time. Ah glad the reviews have helped. Sent from me from some far away land.

These are torchys version of the panasonics m.ebay.co.uk/itm/291220129842?nav=SEARCH although not sure the vtr will take nipple top as these are big batteries. Hopefully somebody will be able to help. He doesnt have the actual panasonics on ebay but you can buy them direct from him via ukv which is how i get them. Sent from me from some far away land.

Thanks for the help Roscopecotrain - yeah the reviews were great I watched a bunch of them I've dropped him an email on ebay about the panasonics and what his recommendation is. See what he says! Thanks again all.
