There’s several. For me it’s LGHG2.

LGHG2’s are great if you vape say 60W or less. Great battery life. If you vape high wattage, mech mod or use replay Samsung 30Q or Sony VTC5A’s will give you better constant current.

I’m gonna parrot @SmilingOgre and recommend the VTC5A’s. It’s what I’ve been using for the last two years and they are great. I tend to chain vape at around 45 to 65 watts and find that the VTC5A hold up a little longer than VTC6 or Samsung 30Q’s.

I believe it’s the only brand that says they’re good for use in mods. All other brands have a tendency to turn their back to vaping…

@anon28032772 I’ve seen these being sold at a real good price at a vape shop and been told they are really good but the cheap price put me off thinking they can’t be that good at that price have you tried these?

Eh … you won’t find much better. They used to be on the expensive side, the price has dropped a lot.

I have… very happy with them. They seem to have a much longer ramp down time than most 18650’s I’ve used (ie Samsung, LG etc)

Either the VTC5a or the Moicel if you want to pay for that.

Last time I checked they were £6.80 at fogstar… was a little bit too high for me so no, I haven’t tried them but I follow Mooch and it’s one of the top recommended batteries by him. His tests show they keep up with the best.
At this price though, I won’t have to think twice about getting some next time.
