The old version of white battery was customized and researched by vapcell alone in cooperation with the battery factory, but the sales volume was too small for the battery factory to bear, and the factory had to rely on large sales volume to make money
So it has stopped production
The flashlight Market is too small, and the sales of high power batteries are not optimistic
Vapcell 14500 1000mah 10A also encountered such a low sales situation
Hope the future will be better
Vapcell T8 and T6 can meet the needs of high capacity and high power flashlight users
Welcome to purchase
That’s sad to hear.
So that means we’re not going to see the Vapcell 800mAh 16340 7A (white) anymore in the future.
HKJ reviewed it here:

And the same will be true for the Vapcell H10 1000mAh 14500 battery - we may soon not see it anymore?

Ope…
Are there other (special formulated) Vapcell batteries that will not be produced anymore in the near future?
Eg. is Vapcell T50 still going to be produced? How about the rewrapped Sony VTC5D (Vapcell 2800mAh black) or the Sony VTC6A 18650?

Refund granted on the two K64's. It went through the process quick, but required submitting a pic so I just took a pic of the cells with my notes.
Wait, that wasn’t the 16340/850mAH, was it?
Ancient history by now, but I won one (two?) of the 850s back last July in a giveaway‡ but never got ’em.
I still got a bevy of 16340 lights I wanted to load up with decent cells, but never got anywhere with that.
Especially my i332s that could benefit from decent 16340s, ’though the come-with Wuben cells seem pretty good.
So what’s the consensus on decent 16340s… at least those that can be gotten relatively easily?

I measured my Nitecore NL166 with >4A for a blink on that 15mm MNT FET+1 driver / Osram WF2. It’s my most powerful 16340, but I have only this one and don’t know if there’s a significant variance, also cannot do professional measurements.
Edit:
The 6A Vapcells are now listed on AE. Ordered two .

Hi
Hi, some batteries are available. If the production capacity is too low, there will be the possibility of out of stock or shutdown
Vtc5d(Vapcell 2800mAh black) is in small stock, unit price is very expensive
18650 vtc6a is expected to be available again, and it is expected to be updated next week
T50 batteries out of stock, hope there will be new arrival
With the continuous progress of lithium battery technology, there will be better batteries facing the market in the future
Hope everyone has confidence in the future
Vapcell will continue to provide customers with high-quality cells in the market
thank you

The Vapcell T8 (purple) is 16340 850mAh (3A rating) = still in production
The Vapcell white is 16340 800mAh (7A rating) = to be discontinued, per my understanding
The Vapcell P1608 is a 16340 800mAh with built-in USB charging port (? A rating)

Ah, great summary, tnx!
Dunno if the Wuben would benefit from a high-drain cell, so might as well just keep the come-with cell.

It is sad if the 14500 1000mah 10A is discontinued. That is such an excellent cell. The biggest issue is that besides the FWAA, there really aren’t any flashlights that can take advantage of this beast of a battery. There needs to be more multi emitter 14500 flashlights for this battery sales to take off.

agreed! I am running the epoch 10amp / 1000mah cell in all 10 or so of my 14500 lights, and they are great! I am pretty sure they must be rewrapped vapcell's. And they are fantastic
I got 2 of what I think were H10s (blue or purple?), and visually, there was little to no difference in my GTmicro vs the cheepcheepcheep EBL 14500s. Even 900lm vs 1000lm isn’t that much of a difference except on a meter.
More lights need to be able to use that extra oomf, at least enough to make a difference.

Hi Tim, I have a H10 in Wuben E05, FWAA & GT Micro XP-L (GT Micro NM1 Vapcell 14500 Gold)
Nice hand warmer, how bad was that wind yesterday (Saturday)!

Dennis, with the T50 back, will that price come down? You bumped up the price 50% from $24/pair, in November, to $36/pair. In October, they were $22/pair.

I will second this request, Dennis. I am ready to order (like many people), but the $18 per each is a big hurdle to overcome...

Anything with a fet driver (fet+1, etc) with a low vf led or multiple leds. I have some of those epoch 10A 1000 mAh in my FWAA and it screams, almost 2100 lumens (for a few seconds). I use it in my TG06 with fet dr9ver and its noticeably brighter than with the shockli 5A 14500.
