Can anyone recommend me some good rechargeable batteries for my 200mW classic? I'm currently running off of the 18650 3000mAh 3.7v Li-Ion that comes with it and since I'm still waiting on my adaptor for the US to UK mains so that the charger can be used. I basically just want to know what batteries (rechargeable) will give me the best performance for my laser(s) at an affordable price and preferably from eBay. Thanks :beer:

Currys have those plugs in stock. Picked one up on the high street for .99
For the batteries... no idea.

Damn ... I just ordered a "US EUR AU to UK" from ebay for £1.69, UK free shipping from 2-3 days last night -.- doesn't matter though :)

But I remember someone saying to me that if I used better batteries than the ones included with my laser then it would have better performance so that's why I asked :)

Get an AW IMR 18650. Can't really recommend a where to buy from since you're in the UK though. (Normally I'd say lighthound.com)

Quality batteries pay off in the long run... and you don't have to worry about them blowing up and setting your house on fire:)

My order arrived yesterday, delivered at my office... didn't notice as I had two days off! I have night shift today so I just checked our post room and found two packets from Lazerer sitting in there~

Max shipped it on the 20th and it arrived at the 25th, that was some speedy delivery :D and it went through customs fine. No fees, no inspections, nothing.

I'll make a short review of my order soonish.

Well, I bought all my batteries and charges from ledfiretorches.co.uk

I have this charger :
Pila IBC Lithium Charger

And I have those 18650's :
AW 18650 2200 MAh Rechargeable Lithium Battery

Just ordered these RCR123's for the 445nm :
AW R123 Rechargeable Lithium Batteries, 2 Pack

And some alu spacers for the charger, as it can't charge the RCR123 cells without them :
AW R123 spacers for WF139 Charger, 2 Pack

I've charged the some 18650's with the default charger from Lazerer because I had nothing else here in the office tonight and honestly... those things are utter $hit... they whine, the LED flickers from red to green, the batteries don't fit correctly and fall out... do yourself a favor and buy a quality charger.

Wow that is very fast shipping. Good that you got it so fast. Pics!

Indeed, that was super fast!
Pics coming later :yabbem:
