Personally I think you should list your batteries more responsibly only quoting the continuous rating  |

These are good for 35 watts per cell if they are 15a I'm not sure what the other ones are but they're probably good for 25 watts if they are like 10a, when your Samsung 25r are good for 50 watts per cell there's a big difference in quality here, you'd be better of sticking with the samsungs and lg. |

To be fair it wouldn't help much in this case because Efan lie about the max continuous discharge themselves on the box saying they're 40A continuous and 60A pulse so even if the vendor listed the continuous rating on the box it would still be inaccurate.
Can't really expect vendors to have the equipment to test cells themselves so they have to go by what the manufacturer states.
At least Boldvape have put up a notice on the page to warn people about them not possibly being what they say they are.
I guess the only advise i would give is in the future only buy batteries in to sell that there are existing test charts out there for.
usually doesn't take long to find a test chart on google, the torch forums are usually on these things like flies on you know what and they publish test charts.

These www.boldvape.co.uk/batteries/257-efan-imr-2800mah-40a-pair-battery-s.html are clearly marked on the batteries themselves as 40A pulse and the vendor description is 40A Batteries. So to be fair my original statement stands. |

I have the 60A and they are great  approx 12 hours more vape time than my 25's, i aint tested them, i dont have the equipment, i am just gauging from using in my ipv3LI. I have seen contradicting evidence of what these are etc, but for me they are better than my 25r's for vape time |

Greg gm111 Get Off My CloudThanks for your thoughts / comments on the batteries we are selling at our store, as they come directly from the manufacturer we can only list what details we are given. We have also put a warning in-regards to the batteries in question. We have sold hundreds of these batteries already and we haven't had any returns/issues since we have listed them. We do sell Samsung 25R's and LG HE4's - www.boldvape.co.uk/73-batteriesThat is how we were given the description of the product as well as the title and pictures. We've received no complaints or issues of these batteries. Thanks once again for the comments.

We've received no complaints or issues of these batteries. Thanks once again for the comments. For me as a vendor of Vape gear you should have an understanding of batteries, it's no excuse to hide behind what the supplier says. I'm not for a minute suggesting the batteries aren't good, I'm merely saying they are being promoted poorly. in my example someone could buy the batteries believing them to be good for 40A continuous when they aren't. Now if you described them as 40A pulse at least that would be factually correct but ideally all batteries for vaping should be described with their continuous rating. You're not alone in doing this and I'm not singling you out but a 60A 18650 ! |

They are working fine and people will make up their own minds on what they actually are, i have seen as many good reports as bad, just like any other battery on the market, cheers Carl |
