To be honest I’m wondering if these would be better?
Some key info, when my vaporizer says the battery is dead it’s at 35-60% charge (according to their charger) (I have 3 sets of 2 cells all a year apart approximately and they are weakening over time)
Question is, do you think my alternative options of batteries would work sufficiently? Better?
– instead of new thread il ask about charger here –
The first link I posted was the recommended batteries directly from the vaporizer company. The second was a company I learned about here or candle power forums? I agree I’d never buy 18650s from Amazon not worth the fakes.
The Amazon link I posted was a charger I’m considering getting to replace the OEM one
I see the company you recommended has a variety of cells that may fit the bill? Any reason not buy like 1 cell of 5 different batteries to ‘try’?
I’m sorta OCD and having 5 different cells would drive me nuts but other than that, I can’t think of any reason not to try multiple cells as long as all the devices take 1 cell(you definitely don’t want to mix and match)
I’m a Molicel and Samsung fan, the Sony/Murata are usually much more expensive but are also good.
To me Sony’ has the best cells – High amp draw and last longer – Stay away from Efeist-- I’m curious how these cells plus the Molicel handle your vape machine – more than likely the original cells are not of the same quality
So I ended up ordering those newer p30b from 18650batterystore last week… they gave me a tracking number but it hasn’t gotten into USPS hands still?!
I emailed them yesterday, no reply… called today and it says they are closed that their hours are 10 or so to 4pm… it’s 230pm tho… how are they closed?
Kinda frustrated… really don’t wanna have to change my bank card and everything… ugh
I’ve been getting USPS ground advantage or whatever it’s called and getting deliveries faster than ups ground… but this company is out of Georgia, and apparently they are having shipping delays so bad senators are involved. Google Atlanta shipping delays…
I’ve been emailed 3x that it’s left palmetto, Georgia… so idk what clusterfk is going on but at least it should get here eventually? Lol
I do know now that it’s definitely not 18650s fault, I regret wanting to point fingers at the company instead of the shipper. My apologies 18650batterystore my conclusions were preemptive.
Ok so I charged one, use till hunibadger device says too low power, then recharged. The sc4 reports 2629mah to charge to full.
My old battery when new would report 35% juice left when the hunibadger would say too low according to my old charger. 35% of 3016mah is 1055mah. significantly more than the 371mah on the p30b!
That alone tells me the hunibadger kept the juice strong enough longer than the old cells ever could.
Real life results? The tip of the hunibadger gets hot a second or so faster, seems to keep the temp without fluctuating as much when melting dab, and lasts for many more power cycles than the OEM battery
Honestly even if they don’t work in my flashlight they work as needed for the vaporizer. Although something tells me il be happy on the flashlight front too!
Fwiw all the p30b cells charged about 2200-2250mah first charge.
The only negative? The company being anti-vape… if it wasn’t for that I’d recommend the vaporizer company upgrade their cells they sell to these.
Goal is 2yr lifespan, something tells me I might get more than that
