good 18500 batteries?

i’ve looked at the
Sanyo 18500 1700mah $10.96 2/pcs
Soshine 18500 1400mah $8.39 2/pcs
Grey trustfire 18500 1800mah $8.99 2/pcs

which one should i go for? are there any better one for cheaper or same prices?

Sanyo is a trusted brand.
Generally you get what you pay for with batteries.
If there cheaper than another brand there’s usually a reason why.

oh i forgot to say that i’m buying these to use for my e-cig mechanical mod, i wonder if they’re safe? i have a pretty face and i do not want to ruin it, i also would like to keep all my five fingers intact. lol

and only the Soshine is PCB

Yup, I wouldn’t hesitate to spend $2 more for the Sanyos.

I have 2 Sanyo 18500s which I use on my modified 3xAAA flashlights.

I took their runtimes using my 4Sevens Maelstrom X10 set on high and one lasted 62.37 mins while the other lasted 65.36 mins. Using the tailcap reading of my X-10, the computed average capacity of my Sanyo 18500s is 1871.50 mAh - better than the advertised 1700 mAh.

Yes they are very good 18500s, just like all my Sanyo Lithium Ion batteries. :slight_smile:

If safety is your main concern TheHouseOfVapor.com is for sale | HugeDomains
The Sanyo’s with out the PCB are probably safer than the Soshines with the PCB if cell voltages are monitored.

Just saw 18500 3.7 volts with 1000 mah at Walmart. 4 for $11. For solar lights.

you need high drain imr type for vaping esp if subohm.
flashlight use get the sanyos.many in use here with no issues.
trustfire is iffy at best.and who knows what the soshines are.
aw is respected.

have never seen 3.7
only 3.2.
check closely before buying

Yea thought that was a first for walmart.
