Hey guys,
I'm buying the parts needed for my first build: a C6 + A140 + 18V 5W Cree Driver. So...
I need some information regarding these battery types and their differences:
RCR123a vs. CR123 (or CR123a)
I know 2 X RCR123a work in the C6 host, but is the CR123 or CR123a the same size and will it work as well?
3v vs. 3.7v
What is the difference b/w these who types of Li-ions? Can I use 3v for my application? When should I use one over the other?
Li-ion vs. LiMN
On lighthound, they sell LiMN batteries which are apparently much safer and won't explode. Can they be used in any application a Li-ion battery is used?
Please educate me :can:
