I know that the Ultrafire 3000mAh is not very good(low current draw). And I would think that the other one is crap too(3600mAh is not realistic).


Here is a couple batteries that you can not go wrong with.

AW 18650 Protected 2600 mAh Rechargeable Lithium Battery

I'm guessing you have already modified the tail cap to allow the longer battery?? I have a 3405 as well, running a 445 at 1 amp. I have a modified battery holder that uses 3- 10440's in parallel. Needless to say, they don't last very long. I need to do the tailcap modification on mine. The 18650 seems to be the way to go at these powers.
Good luck.

18650 is the way to go. Not to mention, generally speaking, running paralleled high-output cells isn't easy nor as safe as a single cell.
