*Feeler* AW Battery GB

[designedfor1]

Hey everyone, I'm curious to whether anyone would want to do a GB for AW batteries. I should be able to get all of their batteries unprotected and protected. A AW Protected 18650 would be around $15 shipped in the US and about $18 shipped international. Of coarse these prices could come down or go up, but right now I'm just doing a rough price out.

These are pretty much perfect for the new 445nm builds!
AW P18650 - 26 SPECIFICATIONS:

Constant Voltage : 3.7V
Capacity : 2600mAH ( rated at 0.2C discharge 4.2V - 2.8V @ 25℃ )
Operating Temp. : Charge 0 to 45℃ / Discharge -20 to 60 ℃
Max. Charge Rate : 2.6A ( ambient temp. 25 ℃ )
Max. Discharge Rate : 5.2A ( ambient temp. 25 ℃ )
Dimensions :18.52 X 68.16mm ( +/- 0.3mm )


So with the P18650 being the most expensive, everything would below the $15 price point.

Well how much of a price cut are we looking at?

From what I have seen, AW P18650 batteries with shipping are around $19-20. So we would be looking a few bucks in savings, nothing huge, but something.

quick bump, anyone interested, or is this thread "hiding" because of the 445nm madness?

The 445nm craze has wiped out people's wallets at the moment, normally if you offered something like 8x diodes for sub $100 people would be all over it...

I would personally recommend LarryDFW's 18650s for about 1/2 what the AWs cost. I have had nothing but great experiences buying lenses and batteries from Larry. The 2400mAh 18650s are only $7.95 prepaid.
He is even offering a 2600mAh version for just $9.95 each!
