There are so many options but I use the Panasonic 18650

  Sony VTC 4 and 5 are great too.
  
  Cheapest and best usually aren't in the same sentence, better off spending a little more and have a reliable/non exploding battery.

Hack it from laptop batteries, usually has 6 cells inside them. IDK about price, it can vary for each model.

  Laptop batteries are unprotected cells though, as they have one BMS for all of them.

hey guys,
regardless of the brand, where is the cheapest place people know of to buy 18650 batteries from?
Given that they can be expensive in Aus and many places internationally won't ship down under.
Thanks
