Need help choosing best High Drain Button-Top 18650 for Haikelite MT09R and best 26650 20a battery for Nightwatch NI40 Stalker.

Sony VTC6 doesn’t make 20a continuous button-tops and Samsung 30Q are only 15a. So who is the best alternative for the Haikelite?

On the Nightwatch Stalker, no big brands make 26650 so who is trust worthy? I heard of Orbitronic, Keeppower, Shockli, Vapecell but who is truly king? The Stalker is running an SBT90.2 that I hear puts max pressure on even the best batteries. It draws 18a so the battery has to be 20a continuous. Thank you.

NKON in NL sells Sony VTC4, VTC5, VTC5A, VTC6 and Samsung 25R with button tops.

I think if you can find Samsung 30Q or VTC6 in button-top format, they should be good for the MT09R… the MT09R gets hot very quickly on Turbo mode, so it will step down quite quickly (probably less than 20 Amps power consumption after a short while?)

Sony VTC5A and Molicell P26A would be some of the most high-drain (Vapcell has a rewrapped Sony VTC5D and can add button-top [I have ordered these button-top Vapcell rewrapped VTC5D from Vapcell before] - their Vapcell 2800mAh (VTC5D), would likely also be good. Not sure who sells button-top P26A though.

Id just solder blob a VTC5A, buying premade button tops is infuriating and youll typically only find 30Qs unless you buy rewraps or from overseas.

26650’s though, Vapcell 5500mah red, Shockli 5500mah, Hohm Grown 4244mah V2, Golsi 4300mah Gold.
