Hello, I have recently upgraded to a Subox mini from an EGO. Which 18650 batteries are good to go? I have been using some old ultrafires I had laying around but I am pretty sure they are about done. I need two good batteries and a charger.

Thanks!!!

I've had good luck with Eagletac batteries I ordered from GoingGear.com . But I'm no pro on the subject.

I like High drain imr 18650 batteries 2500mah 35a you get full power hits until it dies unlike your ultrafires where as they get weak your hit does as well I have some flashlights that came with ultrafire batteries it's how I know. High drain batteries are good for longevity and quality vape for me. Efest is the brand I currently have, but lg and real deal sony high drains are even better. the intellecharger I2 is a great charger as well for 11 bucks on amazon.

The Samsung 30Q slightly outperform the LG HG2.  

There's a guy named Mooch who is a battery guru and posts on all the big vape forums and subReddits.  He tests batteries and posts the results for everyone to see.  Most people wouldn't be able to notice the slight difference between the 30Q and HG2, but the HG2 was rampantly cloned and a lot made their way into reputable vendors' hands, unfortunately, and the clone specs are terrible and not suitable for safe use in ecigs.

Charger showed up and works well. The box the batteries were supposed to be in was empty.

amazon. Working on the refund/return/exchange now. They apparently want me to send them an empty box back. I cant find where to contact them, so fuck it, its their money on return shipping.

ETA: the corner of the box was torn open.

I know it's irritating but amazon has always taken care of me try to be patient. It will get resolved. I would ask for an extra something for the inconvenience.
