[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Good deals on 18650 batteries?

Posted: 1/10/2017 4:02:17 PM EDT

Looking to buy about 6 batteries. I currently have the same 6 Samsung 18650s that I bought a while ago (maybe a year ago?) and they won't hold a charge for even half a day anymore. Guess it's time for some new ones.

Any good deals on some legit batteries? I see plenty of Chinese "9,900 MaH 10 Pack w/Charger for $5.99" crap on amazon, but I know those are junk.

Anybody know where/what to buy? Thanks.

Best bets are fast tech or gearbest, but shipping takes 20+ days for batteries.
101 vape usually has decent prices, and they are in the US, so you'll get them faster.
If not there, keep an eye on the Vapor Joes site; they're about due for a battery deal.

I buy all my batteries from rtd vapor. Never had any problems, not the cheapest, but I trust that everything I buy is legit, so it's worth it for me.

LG HG2's for $4.99.

I use them and they are great.

I've used Illumn and Orbtronic. Both very reputable and not known for fakes. Some places unknowingly/knowingly sell fake clones (and cloned batteries are a rampant problem, and can be dangerous).

LG HG2, Panasonic 25r, Sony VTC5 or VTC6, and Samsung 30Q are some of the most popular, safe batteries for vaping. I'm currently using the Samsung 30Q batteries and they are awesome. You'd be fine with any of them, though.

I've bought batteries from https://liionwholesale.com/ and have been happy.

Illum is my go to. They used to be called illumination supply. I have bought a lot of the keep power 18650s over the past few years.

Yup, stocked up on Samsung 30Q's a few weeks back for $6 a piece. Hard to justify Sony's when these are so cheap and good.
