IMR 18650 Batteries

At Gypsy Vapes, you will get the best vape IMR 18650 batteries, and we offer all kinds of 18650 batteries, so you can choose one that suits your needs and have a pleasant vaping experience. Choosing the best IMR 18650 batteries for vaping is closely related to the power of your vaping style. Before you decide, first acknowledge if you will utilize the battery on high or low wattage. IMR 18650 batteries are rechargeable batteries, the majority with lithium-ion composition. These are not unique to vaping, as you can use them for a flashlight or other electronic device with low or high wattage. Some batteries have enormous capacities, while others have massive discharge rates.

How To Choose The Best 18650 Battery For Vaping

Therefore, choosing the best 18650 vape battery is not easy, and we cannot label a battery as the best. Therefore, buying vape batteries is like deliberation as buying the vape mod.

Before choosing a 18650 rechargeable battery for vape mod or vaporizer, you must calculate the amperage first. It doesn't seem very easy, but it's elementary using a universal formula I(A) = √ P(W) / R(Ω), or you can use an amperage current calculator.

For example, you have coils with 0.2Ω resistance and maximum recommended power of 120W: using the same formula A = √ 120W / 0.2Ω doing the calculations, we have the result of 24.49A. That means that for this setup, you need to use high drain 18650 batteries with at least a 25A continuous discharge rate. For example, high drain best 18650 battery for vaping: Sony US18650VTC5A 25A, EBAT E7-18P30 25A, EFEST 2600mAh 40A [25A]
Or another example with a low wattage device, if the vaping device is working with a maximum of 50W power and using coils with 0.5Ω. Using the same formula A = √ 50W / 0.5Ω, after simple calculations, we have the result of 10A. That means that this setup requires a medium or even low wattage 18650 rechargeable battery with 10A or above. For example, low drain best 18650 battery for vaping: MXJO 18650 3500mAh, AWT 18650 3500mAh, Imren 18650 3500mAh

You may notice that low drain batteries come with a higher capacity number than high drain batteries, and typically, the vaping setup works longer on low wattage. If you use an incorrectly low drain battery on a high wattage device, the batteries will be discharged in seconds once they hit maximum discharge current. Choosing the correct vape battery will ensure that you will be enjoying your vape without any glitches. On the other hand, using rewrapped or not authentic 18650 batteries may not only reduce the performance of your mod but can also be a hazard.

IMR Batteries Size Chart

The IMR batteries come in different sizes, and they are all standardized under a five digits number chart. The first two digits identify the diameter in millimeters of the IMR battery. The following two digits, numbers three and four, determine the length of the battery. The fifth number, in the end, means nothing. For example, the 18650 IMR battery's first two numbers of 1 and 8 indicate a diameter of 18mm, and the following two numbers, 6 and 5, determine the length of the battery by 65mm.

Keep in mind that 18650 IMR batteries appear in flat top or button top variations. Most of the vape devices use flat top IMR batteries. Make sure to verify that before ordering the battery.

Five Safety Tips For 18650 Rechargeable Battery

Buying high-quality 18650 batteries for vaping is only half the battle; You still have to maintain them, so they run for a long time and offer optimal performance.

Keep batteries in a protective container, away from children, pets, and fire.
Store your batteries in a protective case; try not to leave discharged batteries for a long time. If you store the batteries for a long time, leave them at least 70% of charge because leaving IMR 18650 batteries discharged for a long time may significantly diminish their potential.
If a vaping device requires dual batteries, use only identical batteries. Don't use different 18650 batteries in one vaporizer or vape mod.
When charging the battery, try to use a compatible external charger for lithium batteries. If the batteries are charged internally in a vaping device, you must connect the charging cable to an AC/USB adapter with compatible output. Do not connect the USB charging cable from your device to the laptop or any other USB port on electronics because it may damage your computer and battery.
Same if charging multiple batteries simultaneously in a standard lithium battery charger; however, you can mix different batteries if charging is an intelligent battery charger capable of charging each slot simultaneously.
