I bought the O-like 400mW 405nm bluray torch and just received it about a week ago. I also have 6 cells i took out of an old laptop battery which are 18650's.
I was just curious what the difference is between the two. Are they supposed to be the exact same battery? Can I substitute the old laptop 18650's for the ultrafire in my 405 torch?
The ultrafire puts out about 2.4v, The amount of amps it puts out is extremely variable, it starts out at about 2.5A and gets down to around 200mA. This seems pretty odd to me.
The laptop cell puts out about 3.8v, It starts out at 16.5A and gets down to 1.4A but it gets hot in the process. (This is just testing one of the 6 cells, The others registered about the same but that was just quick spot testing).
*** Edit ***
So, not sure what this is about, I know this is the wrong area for this but, I had my ultrafire plugged in to charge all night and tested it this morning with my DMM a few times and now my 405nm is fading to pretty much nothing when I click it on. Hopefully this is just the battery dying?
