This may not be the one you are looking for but I use these for Aspire Archon, SnowWolf 200 Plus, Cuboid, and Evic2. They use Panasonic cell and work fine with TC as well. I have not tried these with dna chips yet.

Those are definitely not 20-amp cells (there are no 20-amp cells with more than 3000 mAh). 10 amps maximum, be careful to not use them at too high a wattage (absolute maximum 60w in a two-battery mod, but that's only if they're actually 10-amp batteries. They could very well be 5-amp or even lower).

Thank you for letting me know. I will be careful. I am like 16w puffer kind of guy. So at the moment I should have no problem. At least I am using Sony VTC6 on DNA.
So the 2 I mentioned and the lg hg2 are the best and highest mah that are currently available ?
Yes. The LG hg2, Sony vtc6, and Samsung 30q. All others are rewraps.

The 30q is slightly 'better', the chart provided shows this.
The actual between recharge cycle difference would be a matter of a few button presses.
The over all life span difference would be a few recharge cycles.
There are no 3000mah cells with more than a 20a CDR, none.

Thanks.
I currently use sony vtc5 and want to get a longer use before charging.
Sony and Samsung, as well as LG have served me well over time. My old VTC6's have been in single battery rotation for 1 to 2 years and still give me an all day vape with my various Pico mods. The 30Q's still give me two day vape time on dual battery mods. I run them all around 10W, so I'm not stressing them. The reward for lower wattage is additional vape time.
This might help.
That's one word for it.
Another would be "brutal".
Jeez, look at the parameters... that's a torture test.
I know mfg's spec the 18650 for up to 4A charging, though I never go higher than 2A, and rarely that.
And continuous 15A discharge, with a fairly high temp and quick turnaround.
That's like 45watts per cell... and just hold the fire button down... to 2.5 volts.
(most of our chargers might not even recover a cell discharged that low)
I'm impressed as hell the capacity loss was that low. Tough little buggers.
That description of battery testing reminded me of those vehicle torture test commercials where they showed cars being abused in the Baja desert with cars careening over sand hills and dust flying everywhere!
I was surprised to look again and see it was Mooch. I don't recall him taking his testing so far.
He's a mean, mean man.
Make sure you get your batteries from a reputable vendor also. I use battery junction because they have the best prices, usually, and for every pair you get the plastic case for free. IMR and orbtronic are a couple other good vendors. The Samsung 30q's are the ones to get, usually the cheapest and performs the best or at least the same. Personally I've never noticed any difference between the 30q's LGHG2's or the sony vtc6's so it basically comes down to price.
