AAE-C Battery Power Guide - Discussion Thread

[Ripshod]

I want to compile a list of batteries with their power ratings, and lowest ohms (mech) as a quick reference guide for members so no maths is involved.

I'd like to include as many batteries as possible, but due to the variable nature of rewraps I don't think they can be included.

This is open for all members to suggest batteries bearing ^^^ in mind.

I want to include the better batteries from Torchy and Ecolux (they're not all suitable for vaping)

I'd like VapingBad to be involved too, invaluable experience and eloquence

Price means nowt. It's not a review, just a list.

Over to you.

I know, some rewraps are in the list. I'll weed them out and replace with the original cell if I can trace it

Excellent ripshod.

[letsavit]

IMR18350 800mah
Efest 18350 700mah

Ripshod would like to know the lowest coil you recommended for these mate, think my 18350 mech days are over......!

[Ripshod]

Efest 18350 700mAh (Purple?) - 0.4ohms
Is the 800 an efest red letsavit? Button top?

[Greg]

AW IMR 18490
AW IMR 18650

[Ripshod]

Ah Greg

Black or red? Capacities? There's been 3 versions of the reds to date

[lairey]

AWT IMR 18650 3.7v 2500mAh 35a
AWT IMR 18650 3.7v 2600mAh 40a

Ripshod, great idea with so many types out there. As a suggestion, would it be worth adding ways of telling if genuine against each type, if known?

Red 18490 - 1100mah
not sure on the red 18650 as just remembered I gave them away.

how about a LG DBHE21865 N265I222A5, no idea on capacity but they come as standard with a VS DNA40.

[Ripshod]

I'd like to include as many as I can lairey, but you have to admit it's gonna be a fairly HUUUUGE list doing it that way.

I think in reality I will definitely leave out the rewraps, and probably those that don't make the mark. I want it to be a list of safe batteries.

As these are AWTs I've already shown here that the 35Amp doesn't make the mark and are unsuitable for vaping (In my opinion should be limited to 16 Amps max). Will investigate the 40Amp but I've no confidence.

If I include 'bad' batteries I'll be editing and adding forever (rather confusing actually). Hope you understand

Sorry, yes you're correct, purple efest flat top and button top IMR.

Do have some efest red flat top 18350s too, flat top.

Only have the 2600mAh on the database. Only rated at 5.2 Amps though. I think Brillipower are one of those guilty of over-speccing. Will investigate

Found it. Specced at less than or equal to 0.08ohms IR(DC) I doubt the spec already, 2.8Volt drop at 35Amps
