Just ordered a pair from illumn. The $3.75 shipping I can live with. I have a pair of protected Xtar 14500 arriving today from Xtar’s ebay store. Now I have a total of 6 14500 cells. Thanks for the heads up TexasToasted.

I ordered the discounted Nitecore TUP and 6 of the Vapcell 14500 cells, so my shipping was free

Your a better consumer than I Texas Toasted.

No longer to be found on AliExpress…
Was just about to order 2 pcs…

edit: Nkon sold out too..

Vapcell, I just saw HKJ’s test. Impressive results, you have raised the bar for 14500 capacity.
I’m leaving here to go order a couple of sets.
Now bring on some improvements in the 16340 cell.

I think they only rewrap the bar actually..
I assume more will be sold with different branded wraps in the future.
(Like the 1100mAh 18350 cells first sold by Aspire)
None the less, kudo’s to Vapcell for being the first.
…and at a very affordable price too.

Thanks，illumn，liionwholesale，18650 batterystore have vapcell 14500

I ordered 4 from Illumn. $3.75 shipped. I’ve tried them in the Utorch Ut01 and the Lumintop Tool AA 2.0 for a few minutes each is all. Very good so far but not enough run-time to be sure how they will do but I am optimistic. I don’t have anything that draws much over 2A so I can’t try it in higher drain devices.

Bump since new 16340 battery was added to OP without any notification

I’ve just checked AE vapcell store, because I need some 16340, but did not find any. When it will be available?

Yes! Thanks Dennis for making these 16340’s possible via Vapcell. In a quick comparison with the discontinued AW 16340 15C, I see comparable performance but with 200mAh more capacity I will certainly get me a number of these for my hotrod 16340 builds!

And what about those blue Vapcell 650mAh 14500 cells, are they new too? The capacity is not great but they are high current. Would anyone know how they perform against the purple Efest 14500 cells?

This is April the 1st, so is this a april fools joke or do we get a link to buy.
Where are you finding any specs on these djozz?
Found it, its the graph in the first post. I thought that was for the 14500 but I know see its the 16340. If it had been a snake I’d be bit. .

When I do a google search for “vapcell 16340” they come up at banggood but when I clink the link it goes to banggood then hangs up. Tried both Chrome and IE, last night and today. I’m ready to pull the trigger on a half a dozen of these if I new which way to shoot.

Thanks for stoping by Dennis. I’ll keep a eye out on Ali then. You posted right before I did apparently.

Dennis, do you have a link for the 16340’s yet?
When available, please post it here. I went to the AliExpress store but couldn’t find it.

Also, it would be nice to send some for HKJ to test. According to him, here:

At the current time I have a long queue for battery >2800mAh and do not want to buy any for testing. For smaller batteries my queue is basically empty.

vapcell Dennis wrote:

We will send sample to HKJ for test, hope he will test it

because many batteries send to him, waitting to test

I do often have some queue, at the current time it is very bad for >2800mAh batteries, but I only have one Vapcell branded battery in queue at the current time and it goes on the tester very soon.

I checked it. I remember that we have shipped red 18650 2800 MAH 25A and 21700 4500 MAH 20A.

I wonder if you haven’t received the samples. Thank you

I do not have a red 2800mAh from your, but I have a black I bought myself, it is tested, but not published yet.
The 4500mAh is the one I have left in queue.

I test most batteries I get or buy, but a few do not get published for different reason: they get to old before I can test them, another reason can be a fault on my test station, (This happens a few times each year), sometimes I can use the data, sometimes not. And sometimes I makes mistakes when testing.

If that is the VTC5D rewrap I am interested. I just tested that last night myself at 3.5A discharge

If you want to test vapcell batteries or other batteries that we have in stock, please contact me and I will arrange for shipment to you.

I’d like to send you a lot of batteries for testing. I’m afraid you’re too busy.

With >2800mAh I have a couple of months queue, but the test station for the smaller sizes is basically empty. I have been using it to test cheap batteries on (I do not care about the <=2800mAh rating for cheap batteries).
The reason for the split at 2800mAh is to always test same capacity on same test station, this gives the absolutely best comparison (There is a small difference between the two test stations).
