Seriously, how did that stem stay in? I feel like I missed a (glaringly obvious) memo.
The Molicel 26A is arguably the best 18650 on the market (for our use), the only downside being a slightly lower capacity. No one should use a lower discharge rated cell than the HG2/30Q/VTC6 but there are others with higher verified discharge ratings like the 26A, VTC5A, VTC5D, 25R, and 20S that would all work.
My paranormal jumps around in wattage when I use it in TCR because the mod allows the full (programmed) wattage to be applied when heating up and then when the temperature (determined by the measured resistance) is reached it drops until I draw which raises it to compensate. It's a different mod but the principal should be the same as far as I'm aware.
So I just got ahold of my unit and I think I may have screwed up. I don't know the first thing about 18650 batteries but I heard the Molicell P26A was popular (with Mooch) so I ordered some. But the wattage on my P80 is all over the place, jumping from apx 4-18w I wanna say and the temperature is fluctuating as well. Does this sound like just a poor battery choice causing my issues?
