Flexdrives back in stock

That is what a battery rated @ 10A discharge is for.:eg:




IMR26650 Specifications: Nominal Voltage : 3.7V
Capacity : 4000mAH
Lowest Discharge Voltage : 2.50V
Standard Charge : CC/CV ( max. charging rate 5A )
Cycle Life : > 500 cycles
Max. continuous discharge rate : 10A
Operating Discharge Temperature : -10 - 60 Degree Celsius
Size : 26.18mm (1.03") x 65.33 mm (2.57") +/- .05mm

Ignore my PM then! :crackup:

Just the chemistry of the battery is needed...

Here are the batteries that I am planning on trying with dual driver setups now the Flexdrive's are back.



Have a few of these in hand.
LiMnNi Rechargeable 26650 Cell: 3.7V 4000 mAh, 10A rated 14.8Wh - UN Approved (NDGR)

Have some of these on order. Has the same markings of the battery space one but has a smaller recessed positive contact. I would suggest if you plan on puting them end to end in series to go with the batteryspace ones. If it is a single host then you should be alright. That is as long as your host has a positive spring or solder mound to make good contact.
Lighthound IMR 26650 4000mAh LiMN rechargeable lithium battery

And these will be in stock soon according to lighthound. I plan on ordering a few as well.
AW IMR 26500 2300mAh LiMN rechargeable lithium battery



Look at this beast in my charger.:crackup:



Here are the batteryspace vs lighthound units.

Lighthound on top



The Lighthound does not make contact due to the fact that the positive contact is recessed.

The Batteryspace unit makes contact very well.



Here is a comparison AA's.






Got this charger and it fits all these batteries perfect. http://www.lighthound.com/Ultrafire...3-37-volt-Lithium-Battery-Charger_p_3669.html
