18650 li ion batteries:

2 - SF US18650GR - SONY - 2200mAh
18- ICR18650-26C - SAMSUNG - 2600mAh
12 - ICR18650-28A - SAMSUNG - 2800mAh
24 - LGDBZ18650 - LG - 2400mAh

Total: 56 cells - I still have a few more office boxes to go through and I know I have more so keep an eye out. Also, each cell will come in a small poly bag for shipping safety. If you don't know what a poly bag is, google image it.

1 Red home brew / built burning laser that uses 1 18650 battery and will pop ballons from 20-25FT away. I harvested this diode out of a 20X HP DVDRW/DVDDL drive. I used no heat to remove the diode.

3 - Dorcy Jr. LED lights still in the package
1 - Dorcy Jr. LED light outside of the package and gutted - guts are included
2 - Dark Horse Dory Jr. Heatsinks with alan screw

A bunch of random accessories and parts, see pictures.

For right now I'll just take the best offer on the table. I can accept PayPal, cash or money order.

I'll post any PM offers on the forum so everybody knows where the current offer stands. I'd really like to sell everything as the lot as I'm trying to get out of the hobby and really don't want to part things out.

Currently the offer stands at $100. I just moved and think I might have a few more parts / batteries, if so I'll post the updates here.

I'm also open to trades, electronics / computer parts. Currently looking for a processor / mother board and power supply.

I've started going through my office boxes (have been moving the last few months) and I found one box with at least 20+ 18650 cells. I didn't have time to take note of the brand / model but will update once I go through it later today / tomorrow.

So add another 20+ 18650 cells to the lot.

Lot is currently at $135 with Dawinzi in the lead.

Whops! Sorry I missed your PM yesterday Dave.

Dave is currently in the lead with a bid of $150.

Please if you can avoid sending me PM's for now, that'd help out greatly. For some reason I don't get emails whenever I get a new PM and it can take me a few days to catch them.

Sorry, Dave :(



I would love to resell those 18650 batteries at a couple dollars each :D
So does this go until people stop bidding or what?

~46x 18650 batteries
4x dorcy jr hosts


This is a huge lot worth a lot of $$

In the middle of typing this reply my Dell bluetooth keyboard stopped working (which they always do), after 20 minutes of smashing it against my desk, I'm back in action.

In all honesty I'm sure what the best way to sell this lot would be. I'd hate for users to get mad at each other for out bidding them.

I could list this lot on ebay and have it run for a week or so and have people bid on it that way. Downside to the ebay option is that if / when I find more stuff I couldn't adjust the auction to show the additional items.

I'm open to suggestions and opinions.

I have a suggestion -

1) Pick someone neutral who is willing to deal with a couple extra PMs to help out.
2) Designate them the "receiver of bids"
3) Ask everyone interested to PM that person their highest bid.

Make it clear that the bid has to be a specific dollar amount. IE, an actual basic, straight-forward number. US Dollars.

Give everyone say 24 hours to get that PM sent, just in case someone doesn't notice the new bidding setup. Let everyone submit ONE PM, with their absolute highest bid.

At the specific time, that designated person will "open" the PMs (the bids so to speak), and declare the highest bid, and bidder.

The logic here (and it's sort of like a bid situation in the real world)

Is that you don't get a perpetual constant one-upping, and a never ending auction. You just get everyone submitting what they're actually willing to pay. The highest bidder gets it at a level they're comfortable paying, and the seller gets whatever the max they're willing to take is.

To clarify - the receiver of bids DOES NOT reveal each bid as they come in. So there's no difference when within that 24 hour period you get your bid submitted, and everyone is thus encouraged to just bid the maximum that they feel comfortable paying.

And FYI - since I'm suggesting this, I'll be explicit about the fact that I'm not going to bid or take part.

Good idea?

It's a good idea. I'm going to set some time tonight to go through my office and try to get a final count on everything I have and make the lot "final" so to say. That way I won't have to continue updating this thread with more stuff when I find it.

I like the idea of having everybody interested put in their maximum bid and we just go off that. For now while I'm still moving and unpacking I'll leave it as the basic "ebay style" auction and see where it goes.

I appreciate the suggestion and the time you took to explain it.
