what battery

[lalemandrew]

What's the best batteries for all day use I have an eleaf 50w with 4400 mah and it lasts 3 days I want at least a day otherwise I'll be bummed please help

[KTMRider]

You should be fine with any 800mah and up 3s lipo. 

My Hana v200 has a 950mah 3s lipo and it lasts a full day of heavy vaping. I built a mod with a 1300mah and it lasts more than 1.5 days.

The Wh escribe calculator says 16.28 Wh at 3.7v ( eleaf batt) if you type in 1500 mAh you should get 16.65 Wh at 11.1v

[lalemandrew]

So what brand and do they come in a 3 pack I'm used to the tube batteries I've never built

[Guest]

Sorry can't help you on that I've got the tube batts (18650) I'm going to be using them in my mod, total amount is 23.1Wh (2100mAh)

[lalemandrew]

So I can use tubes? And what size and brand can someone show me a link

[Guest]

You can use 2 or 3 18650 batts I'm using sony vtc4 here's a lay out on connecting the batteries if you use two batteries soder or jumper 2 and 3 together on the board and run the #2 wire to the battery and make sure you change it in escribe to 2 cell. Oh! I forgot to say using 2 batts your wattage will max out at 133w

That will work, but there is no reverse battery protection, Evolv plan to bring out a accessory board/module that can do that.

[Guest]

That's cool, if it's super small I might get it, but I'll just make sure my batts are in the right way

[lalemandrew]

So if I use 3 will I get 200w and if I buy the battery evolv sells do I need 1 or 3 of the 19.99$ packs

You only need one 3S LiPo like the ones Evolv have for sale.

For 18650s: 2 will limit you to 133 W but 3 will allow the full 200W, but for bothe these configurations there is no reverse battery protection and you need good cells, on paper that is only the Sony VTCs ATM, but the LG HE2 and Samsung 25R will almost certainly be OK.

S3 will last how long

That is like the how long is a piece of string question as they come in many sizes, to compare them to 18650s times the mAh by 3, but they have more use able power down low so it would be a little better.  I reckon the one Evolv sell 900 mAh will last me about 1.25 - 1.4 times as much as a Samsung 25R vaping at 36 W.

[Guest]

Based on what you said I think anything over 500mAh 11.1v will last you a day

[Guest]

Like for me a 2100mAh batt will last me 2 days if I use 3 batts at 11.1v (2100mAh) I should get 5.6 days before I need to recharge

[lalemandrew]

What box r u using for this to all fit

[Guest]

Well...... It's not really a box it's more like a cylinder, the cover/housing is going to be aluminum here's a pic of the battery holder I will have to modify the holder cuz right now it's made for parallel batteries

[lalemandrew]

So the battery evolv sells will be a good days worth

[retird]

Depends on your vaping style and settings.

[Guest]

I'm guessing it would but everyone vaps different, if I was you I would give it a try at least you will know where you stand and you could use that as a base line to get a bigger mAh battery

[lalemandrew]

How do u lock batteries in place so don't move around in box

[Guest]

You could use Velcro

[juliange]

How do the higher mAH 3s LiPos compare... such as 2200mah? Are they usable? I'm trying to wrap my head around the battery requirements and what is too much...

[lalemandrew]

Someone told me the higher mah lower c so if it's a 5000 nah u only need 10c

You can easily use anything from 900 up to...well as big as you want to carry.  The C rating required goes down as you get higher in mAh or Ah.
