Hello everyone. I was just curious about 18650 batteries. How long do they last? When should I replace them? How do I tell if I need to replace them? I am currently using a Smoant Battlestar mod, a dual 18650 battery mod. I run this mod at 70w-80w, using pre-built 0.15 ohm coils in my sub-ohm tank.

Hello, Mooch. Thanks for replying so quickly, and thanks for showing me some things to look for. I have a single 18650 mod that I like to carry around with me when I'm out and about (the Battlestar is a little to big and heavy for me to carry around).

Damaged batteries are very dangerous!!
First and foremost if the wrap around your cell has been deteriorated, it's best to stay away from it. Also if the outer casing shows signs of mechanical damage, scratches or leaks then you're dealing with a potential safety hazard. Immediately stop using these batteries and dispose of them at your local recycling center.
Indicators you need to replace your battery
If you're vaping at roughly the same wattage and the battery lasts half as long as when you purchased it, it's probably time to swap it for a new one. Then, if your mod constantly shows "low battery" after slightly increasing the wattage or the battery gets way hotter when in use or recharging you know you need to change it.
