    A lot of companies are misleading when it comes to this, printing a pulse rating on the sleeve to make the battery appear more impressive than it actually is.
    Notice companies like LG, Samsung, Sony don't do any of that shit, just plain sleeving.

    Enter the new BestFire 18350 - 1100mAh - 30A battery.
    If anyone reading this has the equipment to safely test them, please do.
    FT have supposedly tested the mAh rating and confirmed it is 30%+ lower (729mAh)

    For the best fires use BestFire

    The mAh does not worry me. The Amp rating does. For that reason, and for the price difference, I only stick to LG (HE-2/HE-4), Sony (VTC4/5) and Samsung (25R).

    Even if your Bestfire, Trusfire, Efest etc.. are working fine, why taking the risk ? Be safe guys, these batteries are not even much cheaper. Add a couples of bath and buy quality batteries.

    I never saw a 18350 with a 30A pulse rating but I might be wrong. Anyway everyone should stick to trusted brands : Sony, Samsung, LG and Efest IMHO.

    "Fire" in the name = a battery I'd never even consider purchasing.
