Yes, indeed. I have this thread bookmarked. I stayed up entirely too late last night reading, went back at it again this morning. Now I have a headache and don’t feel any closer to a decision. But, the info is good and at least I know once I finally settle, I will know what I’m doing. LoL. Ah, the curse of the over-informed consumer…sometimes I wish I had LESS impulse control.
Just holler if you have any questions!
They are available for purchase, but not much use. There are some 26650 cells (3.2V), but most of them are in brick format. But we are starting to see more and more LiFePo regulated mods.
They also do not make much sense in mech mods, because they provide devastating power. 600W? No problems!
I have a friend who designs a LiFePo mod, he managed to melt one RDA (:
Any info on the 26650 side of batteries?
Honestly i have no idea on the 26650 batts, never used them so i never researched them, sorry.
I have a slightly different question on batteries… in anticipaton on getting a new device I’ve ordered batteries (18650 25R) and a new charger but I’m now wondering if I should have gotten the device first. I ordered flat top batteries not button top, is this going to be an issue? I wouldn’t think so… but…?
You want flat top batteries - Button top won’t fit in many mods (without a bit of violence)…
Whatcha gettin?
@Jimk I’m one of those ppl that if given 2 choices of ice cream that I stand there looking at the sign in awe, still trying to decide Cube 2, Cloupor gt 80, or Sige3li 150w TC, IPV4s or the IPV3-li… I had thought I had it narrowed down to just 2 a few days ago… but I like ice cream too much… lol
Decisions! Decisions!
Better to research, then buy, rather than having buyers remorse! Been there, done that, bought the T-shirt…burned it!
…You forgot to sleep with the band!
Out of the mods you listed, hands down the best in that category for functioning the way it should and not having any problems would be the IPV4S. Although, you can get the IPV4 now for a lot cheaper and has all of the same options as the IPV4S.
I’ve heard the Cube II is good, but way too many options for me to mess around with, plus I have only been able to find it in SS and I love that gunmetal color they advertise it with.
I own a IPV4, IPV4S, and the new Sigelei 75W. I’d buy any of them over again if need be. I like them all, I have no complaints.
If I were you, I would go with the IPV4 or IPV4S. You won’t be disappointed, plus it’s cheaper than all the mods you have listed! Hope this helps.
…and gave them all my drugs!
Didn’t anybody ever tell you that you’re supposed to take all their drugs!
This is a good/short video about batteries. Was just posted on 8/5. Anyone else a fan of the Pegasus Vapor Academy channel?
Anyone catch this when it aired? They were poking holes in battery with no fires, and it continued to hold a charge.
Great batteries, terrible customer service.
