Batteries

I bought my Sigelei 100w Plus a few days back and ordered 2 Sony VTC4's on my same order (I'm confident they're legitimate, I've bought some before) to be able to marry them together and use them with my Sigelei. Upon receiving the batteries, I labelled one A, and one B and put them into my charger at the same time (charger was off, put both in and turned it on), one battery is slightly more charged than the other (it's 2/3 bars, while the other is still 1/3). I'm a bit worried about using married batteries, I understand rotating A and B in my Sigelei and charger but will they be the same charge when they're done? They're new batteries and they both went on at the same time yet one of them is charging a little bit faster.

When both of the batteries are fully charged, will they be safe to use and cycle accordingly? I heard about if one battery has even a tiny bit less, the batteries will take an uneven load and it will make it risky. How do I ensure that these batteries remain married?  

Hi, so I have several different brands of 18650 batteries but I'm getting ready to pick up the new Geekvape Aegis X, I wanted to get some new batteries. I have been reading up on it but I'm so confused, I don't vape very high wattage It's always under 50 watt, 45 usually being the most, so what would be the best batteries for long activity? Any input would really help. Thanks  

So currently my mod is running 2 Samsung 30Q batteries. What is your favorite long lasting batteries to use? What I have is good but I would like to get some new longer lasting ones. Suggestions?  

Ok, one of my 30A batteries went kaput, and now I'm left with one last Sony VTC4. It's time for me to get a new set of batteries for my dripper. I'd like to ask your opinions as to which to get...but here's some criteria.

First, Sony is ruled out. There are too many fakes out there, and even an honest vendor can get duped. Since I will use a 20A build on it, I want to make sure they're rated at what they say they are. So no Sony's, even though I know they're good batteries, I dont want to take the risk.

Second, IT has to be 30A or better CONTINUOUS. It has to be explicitly stated that it has a continuous discharge rate of 30A or higher. Pulse ratings do not count.

third, 2000 mAh or higher.


I am thinking of going with MXJO 2500 mAh 35a continuous... But I don't know their track record.

Another option is the Efest 35a 2800 mAh batteries.

Any other advice would be welcome. Sources to buy would be nice as well.

Thank you in advance.  

Okay so I did look this up and it appears that other people have mentioned this specifically with sigelei mods but I didn't see any that were more recent. I look at my mod to see what my batteries charge looks like to see if I need to go ahead and change batteries and I swear to God the thing starts jumping around as though the batteries are charging themselves and then going back to the 40%. Apparently that's a problem that the mods have and isn't something to be concerned about but it freaked me the heck out. They're doing just fine now that they're in their external charger thingy but I just want to make sure that that's not a sign of something going wrong with the batteries that it's just my mod being weird I've checked the connections and everything to make sure it was clean and that the batteries were fine and not dented or unwrapped and everything looks good. I just need some assurance that the batteries were not like failing or that a regulated mod would shut itself off if batteries were jumping around like crazy in reality if that's even possible
For clarification it was doing this when I was not firing it  

I bought a sigelie 150w recently and it was a deal where it comes with two batteries, I wanna know if these are good batteries.

they are yellow and all it says on it is "LGDBHE41865" are these good batteries to use for my sigelie 150w?  

So I just bought a kit, it doesn't come with batteries -- which I wasn't told (was led to believe it was charged through the USB port according to vape store employee). So I ordered x4 Nitecore-NL1834 18650 3400mAh 3.7 Protected Lithium Ion (Li-ion) batteries and now the door won't close. I read an old article saying that Protected 18650 can be bigger. If there's a possibility of buying batteries that cost $18 a pop shouldn't they let you know there's a chance that it won't be the right size?
Is there a trick to getting the battery lid to close or do I need to now buy unprotected 18650 batteries and hopefully get my money back on the protected batteries I bought?  

Hi folks,

I recently purchases a Sigelei 100w box, and got the purple Efest batteries that the vendor recommended.
I'm using this with a KangerTech Subtank Mini.
It's currently set to 42W - 5.0V, and the resistance it shows me is 0.6 ohms.

I have some questions about my setup.

- I read some reports that these batteries have different specs than what is reported, and it could potentially be dangerous. What should I do to be safe? Is there a max W/V that I can set it to?
- I have a TrustFire TR-001 charger (output: 4.2V / 500Ma). Can I charge those batteries with that? I read the charger supports 18650 batteries, but I'd rather be sure...
- If the charger is no good, any recommendations of what I should be using?

Thanks a lot!  

Hey all,

I've been using the Intellicharger I2 for a while, and recently I've noticed it's taking a long time to charge batteries. Keep in mind I realize that the Amp output is distributed across two batteries, etc, but I feel as though its time for an upgrade.

I regularly use Samsung25R's and occasionally VTC5's, (18650) and I was wondering what your opinions are on the best charger I can buy. The criteria I'm looking for ideally a

External transformer
Fast charging time
LCD screen
Ample venting
Autostop cuttoff when batteries finished

Thank you in advance!  

Is it safe to use the vaporesso revenger (built in batteries) and the vaporesso revenger mini (lights up) after owing it for three years? It seems to have kept 3/4 battery charge and I have not used them in a year and a half. I ask because I’ve read older batteries can be dangerous to use if they have low voltage or something.

Also is it safe to use Sony lithium ion batteries after 2 1/2 years? Their volts was at 3.6 when I started charging them. I haven’t used them in a year and a half, but I did charge them once during the year. Using them in arrow sense mod.
