Battery care

Thank you

It’s a re wrap. There are battery manufactures which make their own cells, (Samsung, Sony etc) then there are companies that re wrap other peoples batteries as their own. AWT are the latter.
Sometimes you find that the re wrapping companies exaggerate the ratings, which on that particular battery they have, by quite a lot I’m afraid.


Just be very careful and don’t vape high wattage on them.

Will 50 to 70 watts be ok? Thank you

No. See my earlier post

Couple of things to add.

Make sure you use a battery case when keeping them in your bag. Nasty things will happen if you leave them loose.

Take note of the edit that SirLugg made. The batteries you have, unless something has changed, are likely rated at considerably less than 35A. They may not be good enough to go over 30W or 40W max with a 2 battery mod.

Crikey. I've been had thank you

You probably already know but you mention how long they will last in your bag, please learn about battery safety first, dont want you having any mishaps or accidents, always have them in your mod or in a battery case, never leave them loose in a bag/pocket with keys, change, metals, other batteries etc

Have a read up on battery safety on here

No. Honestly Lisa I’d take those back to the vape shop and get them swapped. Samsung 25r is a very widely available, reliable cell, and are affordable. Ask for those, or grab some from Fogstar.

You're welcome no idea where what I wrote disappeared to, but yeah I echo what everyone else has said.

AWT are not a good brand for vaping, as already stated.



In theory yes, but by leaving a charger on, with batteries inserted, you are in effect still charging them/ or at least relying on the charger to not top up the batteries. If your batteries are fully charged turn the charger off, preferably removing them. I take it you have a case for them, usually one of these, for a pair.

Also check the authentic of the charger, fakes used to be a thing, they probably still are.

Brand new batteries should charge to 4.20volts, and hold that voltage, as a resting voltage, older batteries drop off and the resting voltage will be lower.

Thanks, I'm not happy with my local vape guy now

Surprised the vape shop didn't advise you more on it, not sure what you paid for the batteries, but I always buy from a reputable battery supplier like fogstar we also get a 20% discount from them using POTV20 at checkout which can be used on batteries and chargers, depending how much you paid for the charger too, you might find fogstar could be cheaper too

I have a awt 21700 that came with a mod rated 35a, acording to Mooch's test they are closer to 20a. So I treat it as a 20a wich is fine for my use anyway.
