Hi all,
I'm starting to build my 445nm build in a C2 host,
i've always wondered what to buy for 16340's but there just seems an endless selection of cheap and expensive batteries and chargers.
first off for the charger i've considered the nitecore i2 or i4 universal charger,
$14.80 Nitecore I2 Lithium Li-ion Ni-MH Ni-Cd Smart Battery Charger - US plug / 2-channel charger at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping
$19.40 Nitecore I4 V2 Li-ion Ni-MH Ni-Cd Smart Battery Charger - 4-channel charger / version 2.0 at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping
i've seen a few reviews on it stating how good and cheap the i2 and i4 charger is
but i also have a few other options
CR123A 16340 Rechargeable Liion Lithium Battery Charger | eBay
NEW Universal Battery Charger AA AAA 18650 16340 CR123A Smart Charger HOT EP98 | eBay
i know these are just cheap beyond belief but its always nice paying less for something
as for the batteries themselves i have absolutely no idea what to buy :undecided: i've heard quite a few people say how bad and low capacity all the fire brands are but i haven't seen people recommend something particular more than once, so heres a few options i've gathered
2 Trustfire CR123A 3 6V Rechargeable Protected Battery | eBay
$4.38 UniqueFire 16340 3.7V 550mAh Protected Rechargeable Li-ion Batteries (2-Pack) 2-pack - with protection board at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping
$7.90 Nitecore NL166 RCR123A 650mAh 3.7V Rechargeable Lithium Battery - CR123A at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping
the nitecore batteries look to be of good quality but i can't justify spending over $14 just on a pair of batteries
so theres my options please tell me if i've somehow missed the whole jist of things and dont know about a specific product that everyone buys, i just dont know if nitecore is the way to go, i can understand spending the extra money on a quality charger but not $14 on a pair of batteries
if you've read so far than cheers any suggestion or help will be greatly appreciated, thankyou :beer:
