battery help

[poppy37]

I recenty bought 2 green 250mw lasers,one comes with a 16340 battery and the other comes with a 18650 battery. the descriptions given didnt say if they came with battery chargers or not (i'm assuming not.) does anyonr konw of a U.S equivelant battery I could use temporarily until I can order the charger(s) and do I need 2 seperate chargers or is there a charger that can handle both? I havent recieved the lasers yet,should be delivered some time in the next week. the operating voltage listed was 3v to 4.7v. thanks for any advice.

You can for example buy this charger that serves for your 2 types of batteries,
as well this store is in the U.S. so the shipment will be fast.

TL-100 Universal Li-Ion Charger for 18650, 17670 & 16340 cells

Very important, I hope you have a right goggles for your lasers :thinking:

Thanks for the info,unfortunately I dont have that store near me so I may have order the charger anyway. is there a non rechargeable type I could use until I can get a charger?

The 16340 is the same (approx) to the CR123A primary (non rechargeable) the problem is
that these batteries have 3V nominal voltage and may not work well with your laser
(or have less power) or not functioning due to lack of voltage.

The 18650 battery equivalent primary (not rechargeable) I do not know.
