    charging 18650 batteries?

    Hit and miss. Extremely slow - which sometimes is better. BUT, many of them overcharge to 4.25V - problem. 20% defect rate. Separate AC/DC adapter-good. Don't like chargers with everything jammed in charging unit - Hazard.

    charging 18650 batteries?

    They use the same manufacturer - later, they just print their logo. Saving money on design.

    Heads Up.. PayPal/eBay the F%$king GREEDY PIGS.....

    The problem is Paypal is not a bank, and we agreed with their terms, and who know what else is in that fine print :undecided:. They basically can do whatever they want to.

    0-30V 0-3A power supply

    Exactly. Trying to help people who do not know much about this "charging li-ion with PSU" idea. Poster above you with his advice to "Set current to whatever" would probably get much "better" response, and sent to learn basics at CPF . Unbelievable. Not a bit of responsibility.

    0-30V 0-3A power supply

    To make it clear: Do not use power supply to charge any li-ion battery with unknown charging characteristics. Do not play with fire. Or if you gonna do it anyway - have fire extinguisher ready. :beer:

    0-30V 0-3A power supply

    Probably me. It was my post. Let's say you want to charge "Ultrafire 4000mAh". Now as experienced user explain how you going to charge them ? There are many people here who read our posts, and do not know 'do' and 'don't' when charging Li-ion.

    Which batteries you are using with your KRYPTON ?

    0-30V 0-3A power supply

    Good and cheap PS. Not recommended for charging Li-ion cells- especially for cheap Ultrafires.

    How much do good batteries matter?

    That is 2 years old review - Soshine upgraded 2 versions since then. Very good, safe, and fast charger.

    Heads Up.. PayPal/eBay the F%$king GREEDY PIGS.....

    I do not think keeping your receipt will do any good.Maybe in some cases. I did have a few cases when admitting receipt (proof that item was accepted by USPS) didn't do any good. Money was refunded to buyer. Very rare cases, but - yes , I lost merchandise and money. I am talking about...

    So I got some batteries today...

    Is your Xtar WP6 or WP6 II model ?

    Heads Up.. PayPal/eBay the F%$king GREEDY PIGS.....

    I wonder what could happen if international delivery takes let's say more than 25 days, and customer complains that order is not delivered after 21 days. Does he/she ends up with money AND merchandise ? Assuming shipment is delivered on 29th day. Everything is made so Paypal/eBay/Amazon (ALL...

    Testing to match battery characteristics - long after their sources are known?

    Possible, but you will hardly succeed without something like CBA-III

    O-like 400mW Review (from Cajunlasers)

    Actually, every review should be like Joe's: Hi res pics, reading, conclusion Really good job. I do not think many people would remove that lens, get some reading w/o lens. Good idea. +1

    O-like 400mW Review (from Cajunlasers)

    I was planning to start selling "6000mAh" ;) so xxxfires get some "healthy" competition. But that is nothing comparing to this: 4x 18650 3.7V 5000mAh Li-ion Rechargeable Battery GTL B | eBay So many emails , and questions why I am "lying" that Panasonic 3100mAh are the highest capacity on...

    O-like 400mW Review (from Cajunlasers)

    They did not cut the spring (for protected 18650 batt.) which makes pretty big pressure on whole PCB. Protection circuit makes your 18650 much longer than standard 18650. Ultrafires are known to be much longer anyway. I understand seller of this laser, it is very hard to know whether you gonna...

    How much do good batteries matter?

    I absolutely agree. Coming from Europe, we certainly know who drinks beer, and who Fine wine. I'll stick with folks who drink beer ;) Cheers
