Replacement fish battery

My ebike uses this type of battery and is 36v 10ah https://g02.s.alicdn.com/kf/HTB1JIZtG...Xq6xXFXXX2.jpg
is it ok for me to buy 18ah ones? The prices are so much better than they were years ago and i think they go over 21ah

Yes..as long as the same voltage (and physically fits on your bike of course)

I would check around on V-power; AFAICR I've heard some not so flattering things on endless sphere about them.

Whats vpower and AFAICAR? I bought one on aliexpress some time ago and it was ok but its been a couple of years. Its wearing down. The only other issue was i had to change it at the bottom. Reverse the polarity

AFAICR = as far as I can recall; if you've had good luck with that vendor, great. It's just that I (thought I) remembered mention of individual(s) receiving unsatisfactory batteries from V power. Sorry , if it doesn't apply.

For the most part, eBay and Aliexpress are just intermediaries for buyers and sellers and there are many sellers of course. Vpower is one of them and the poster is suggesting that some buyers have not been pleased with purchases from them. I have no personal experience but recall seeing some reviews on one of the forums.

Of course buying off eBay and Aliexpress from many vendors can be a bit of a crap shoot.
