I was looking around for some 16340 batteries and found Nitecore 16340 Li-Ion ones. They are 650mAh and 3.7V. Would you recommend Nitecore batteries?

Like DTR said, they are very good. I own a pair myself and use them for my higher power builds for better performance.

How much of a difference would 100mAh more for each battery make if I'm using two 16340 with a 1w 445nm laser?

So out of the two would you chose AW or Nitecore batteries?

They are both known to be good quality and I can now personally verify that Efest are good too. I have been using some generic blue batteries with no brand name on them in a 1.5W laser and they were good for a few minutes, stay away from those! I recently bought some Efest and they are good, also bought some Samsung in a different size and are better than Ultrafire for sure.
