18650s. What are you using and where are you buying?

[TPA]

I'm in the USA and most of my 18650 stock are harvested from laptop batteries, which are now long past their prime. Some of my flashlights came with Samsung 35E's and they've been good. I'm trying to find a replacement or equivalent substitute for those at a reasonable cost, and from a reputable dealer. I fly a lot and the last thing I want to deal with is an LiIon battery fire from a counterfeit or cheap cell.

Thanks.

These were the last 18650s' I bought while back,,
button top & good performance.

I'd buy them again if needed.
