In a way Linda is right. A lot of the people vaping now - and taking up vaping in the near future - are going to end up smoking when all the decent kit gets banned. Kinda sucks

I don't understand how they are longer - 18 is the width in mm, 650 is the length in mm. Do they have a fuse wrapped into them? Maybe I got a rogue, I can't say. But the one I have here is 67.8mm long. It doesn't look a lot, but it's massive for kit designed around the 18650 spec. It won't fit a Hana clone, M65 or my SMY60. The shoulder at the top is also wider than the rest of the battery making it the same width as the rest including the label. I can get it in a nemesis - just - so all my usage data will be based on a mech. ETA: I can't even get it in my head torch

As an aside.
The LGDAHB61865 was brought up earlier. It wasn't on the cadex machine's database so I did a little digging.
It is rated at 30Amps continuous. However, it's an unprotected ICR so not suitable for our purpose. Add to that a paltry capacity of 1500 mAh and we see it wouldn't last long anyway. I can't recommend it.

Ah, explains the confusion dafellon. LG are still using the old ICR reference. More precisely it's a hybrid. Though it's not technically an IMR it is 'safer chemistry'. So it's safe to treat it as an IMR because it behaves exactly the same. Samsung batteries are INR (25R/20R), yet again they are 'safer chemistry'- they behave the same so are also considered an IMR. As vapers we try and keep things simple for others. However, as you have discovered, once we dig a little deeper the little things begin to appear a little bigger than they are. The HE's are safe to use as IMR, as are the Samsungs. The term 'IMR' goes hand-in-hand with 'safer chemistry'. Hope this helps ETA: It's not often we get asked these questions. In the vaping community much of the advice is taken on trust. I'm glad you're asking these questions - but there's a lot to learn. I don't know 10% of it all, but I know enough to stay safe. Further reading, a little chemistry.

Haven't they got anything else to do? I'm sure there's a lot more things get a lot more complaints yet don't get pulled. Clarkson was on TV for years That's just got to be an excuse for the backhander they never received ETA: I wonder. If 6 of us write in to complain about it being pulled, when it has the potential to save lives, would we carry the same weight??

MrDJ leave it up. Won't do any harm and it'll delay the next appearance if the info's already here

Suicide Bunny have made changes to the original recipe. There was a problem - there isn't now. Vape on! This story will keep popping up - mud kinda sticks.
