wouldnt that be the case for all batteries though? No cell is perfect but there are better cells than this one for all round performance.. Look at the curve for the lg he2 for instance.. at 3v it's made another 500mah of usable energy available over the 3100mah cell. That's a few hours vaping! Incidentally, the he2 is one cell that is favoured by efest for the purple range. Problem is that they quote the pulse amp rating (35a) instead of the continuous amp rating (20amp) on the wrapping.. very misleading! Last year, everyone was raving about the panasonic ncr18650b 3400mah cell.. finally a decent battery with a high mah rating.. It wasn't until Torchy posted a discharge curve for them that i among others realised how unsuitable they were for day to day vaping.. they dropped voltage far too quickly and you would never get the full stated capacity out of them without going sub 3v. For "normal mods" (ones that cut at ~3v and won't allow you to exceed 5amps), I will always go for something like the Samsung 2600mah. I use them in my vtr all the time and they are simply brilliant!

Bear in mind that his ebay listing was put up before he'd receieved feedback from proper users.. figures only give half the story and he is now more informed lol
