I was looking for something for my tiny box mod as I could only ger trustfires on ebay, so I got these as well

do you think these will be fine? Battery safety worries me a bit

I have had those batteries that you linked to for a few months now and they have been great, they are only 1400mah but they are IMR and they work very well. Yes they do fit the lavatube without any modifications

Same ones you listed Karma. I was worried that 1400mAh looks a bit wimpy, when others are 3000mAh etc.

I'll try it out and see, but if i can get away with £3 a battery I'll be quite pleased.

I think some of the 3000mah ones are exagerated

I'm sure you're right, companies will say nearly anything short of outright lies to flog stuff, but I would pay a few quid extra for batteries that last all day.

Not that I know how long these will last, I'll hopefully find out tomorrow.

panasonic, sony and sanyo are all good names in the battery business

As far as I am aware these are all now the same company , panasonic being the main shareholder , I know for fact that they have just bought out sanyo

Hey guys, what are these batteries like, apart from expensive...

Any good for lavatube? Do they fit? And good for other mods? I'm interested because they're obviously available on the high street, struggling to find 18650 batteries and chargers on the high street.

i've not heard of these before Alvo ...bit pricey but like you say its good to know that you can get them on the high street if needed

i bought one of those ultra fire batteries and it turned off my LT every time i tried to press the tape button.... will be looking for a refund.

what are the bees-knees batteries then?

I always use the AW's in either the Lavatube or Provari James.
