TR Ultrafire vs LC Ultrafire

[Martian1127]

Hello people. I just got my SD-301 100mW Focusable Green Laser pointer yesterday from DealExcel.com. Everything in the package was there, besides the battery. I knew this would happen because the customer service person told me that they would have trouble getting it past inspection. Although, he told me that I could buy the battery at most stores. The SD-301 Focusble Green Laser pointer, comes with a blue TR Ultrafire 3.7 V/2400mAH Li-ion protected. I found this battery on Radioshack.com, but it's an Grey LC which means it's low current.

My question is, will the Grey LC Ultrafire 3.7 V/2400mAH Li-ion battery work with the SD-301 100mW Focusable Green Laser or does it have to be the Blue TR Ultrafire 3.7 V/2400mAH Li-on battery?

All ultrafire garbage is low current (in my humble opinion). Virtually any 3.7V cell will work with your pointer though. A "100mW" pointer will draw 0.6A or less, and even the worst Chinese 18650 can handle half-amp just fine. As long as it has 18650 in the title somewhere, you'll be fine.

I'm in the United States. Do you know what stores I can go to to buy the 18650 battery? I called a RadioShack store near my house and they don't carry it. Do you know any other places, where I might be able to find it?

Amazon or ebay. Many availabel in the US.

I need them before October 6th. So I would be looking to do express shipping? I read an earlier thread that the Chinese Lithiums are poor quality. Would you suggest that I buy the ones made by TENERGY. Here is a link that I found on another thread. It took me to this site and I found the TENERGY batteries. Will these work for the SD-301 100mW Focusable Green Laser?

I really don't think you'll find 18650 locally, amazon or ebay are your best bets for the cheap ones.

The ones in your link are AAA. you need:

Quality wise, which ones would you recommend? And do you think buying them from Battery Junction is a good idea?

I'm not a troll. I had a legit question. But it's okay. I ordered some. Thank you all for your help.
