18650 batteries: LG? Efest? Or MXJO?

[Cupcakesugars]

I don't know which ones to buy. Anyone out there have some insight?

As far as I can tell, there aren't any differences. Same 2500mah. Same 35 amp limit. Even price-wise, only a dollar and change difference for a pair of them.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Well what will u be putting said batteries in for starters?

There are no 35amp batteries, Current top runners are Samsung 25R, LG HE2 (20amp), and Sony VTC 4 (30amp/Lower mah)

AWT is the new rising brand. IMO.. I've been impressed with the new set I got.

Beats the efest and mxjo in the tests I've reviewed for an 18350.

As you can see, it's yet another great 20amp battery. (now someone needs to tear the wrapper off to see if it's a rewrapped 25r or a HE2)

Yeah its a rewrap of one of them. At any rate like the others it is still 20amp and more than good for the application.

It almost comes down to which wrapper you like. Lol.. I like the yellow better than efest purple.

I have only Sony vtc4/5 and Samsung 25r bats. They seem to really work the best for me.
