Anyone in the US have any spare 3.7v 32600 OR 22600 batteries that they would be willing to sell to me? I need these and their availability everywhere i look is nill.

Any one who has these cells or who knows someone who carries these, i would greatly appreciate you PMing me.

(I ALREADY asked j-rob, he doesn't have them anymore)

THANKS GUYS!

Yeah I just have 32650's...

KD used to have 32600's, but I think they only sell the 32650's now.

If it's for a Saik build, you have another option. You can just modify the stock battery holder for parallel, and use 3 X 14500 cells in parallel. Which would triple the capacity. (not as good as a 32600, but still not a bad trade off)

Well, i asked Lazeerer, the maker of the driver I am using (a Super X-Boost) and he said i can't use 3 x 14500 because even in parallel, they cannot handle the large amp draw (my sxb is @ 2.4 amps)

However, i did use the mod u told me about, and that worked, so thanks for that!

Yes he is correct...

Didn't know you were going for an SXB at 2.4 Amps. For that, you need a serious cell to handle the load...

But 3 X 14500's in parallel will work for normal builds...

I have heard that the 22600 is the same height as the the 32600, just thinner, can i use that with a cardboard sleeve?

Yes if it's a non-protected cell it should fit...

32600 means 32mm diameter - 600mm length. But if it's a protected cell, then it will be a little longer because of the protection circuit...

I can only find protected cells, can you remove the PCB from the battery so u have a non-protected cell?

Augg this is so frustrating, there are NO batteries available that will fit in a saik 305? No 32600s, no 22600s. Jeez!


Is there any solution to this?

Kind sir, did you not see my previous post?

Any 18650 is too long for the saik 305

The cell MUST be 6cm long.

If I remember correctly the pill on the SAIK can unscrew to actually make the compartment a bit longer. It may have enough room for a 32650 if you just screw it all the way out and just a single turn back in. You may have to test the theory with a 18650 if you have one before ordering a 32650.:beer:

I'll try it.. Thanks! Similarly I might ask mrcrouse to make a small extension tube so I can get an extra 9-10mm
