LiitoKala 26650-50A 5000mah 26650 - great first impressions

I had no problem ordering the batteries either, what I tried to write is that the Jaxman ‘connector’ is no longer available from AliExprees. :slight_smile:

My bad, I read it wrong. :person_facepalming:
Hopefully they will come up again, they do work real good. :wink:

Probably all the same.
I got all of mine at GearBest for right around $20 US for four of them and they all check out above advertised specs. :+1:

The LiitoKala 26650-50As can also be gotten at Banggood for a similar steal than at GearBest if you are wise to check out M4D M4X's deals.

Cheers ^:)

P.S.: in fact it becomes a slightly better deal, especially with 3+ units volume discounts.

Thank you teacher.

Hmm when I follow the link in my previous post I can add a jaxman connector to my cart so it seems available to me.
:smiley: maybe jaxman just likes me :smiley:

How are these Liitokala batteries with the Convoy L6?

Is it better to go with these or the short Keeppower 26650 5200mah?

They dont work with L6 - they are too short for L6( even with an added magnet) plus the tail L6 spring is kinda short one ….with S70 are fine though
Yet, its easy fixable

5200s are definately better, the flashlight is more productive with 5200 or 5500 Soshine

A little bit of solder on the top of the Liitokala should fix that shouldn’t it?

Indeed

Its a good idea to swap the L6 tail spring too, its kinda short and flagile looking, i already mailed Simon about that issue

My Liitokala with a solder blob on one of them have a good fit.
Keeppower 5200 protected (the new short ones) are also good.

The tailspring of my L6 has a lenght of almost 14 mm and is quite solid.

They work just fine in my L6.
Matter of fact, I have experienced zero problems using the LiitoKala 26650’s in any of my L6’s.
In fact I have one pair that works in series without any “fix”.

I use THIS with the others. Although a solder blob, magnet, or some other “fix” will also work just fine also. For my purpose though, the Jaxman Series Connector is about as simple as it gets and works just fine.

The LiitoKala cells fit fine in my L6. I used a small magnet to make better contact between the cells. Though I wouldn’t recommend the magnet without adhering it to the positive end of one of the cells.

Mine are 14mm also, substantial, as well as solid.
Personally, there would be no reason to replace any of the tail springs in my L6’s.
:slight_smile:

So would you guys recommend saving some money and just going with these Liitokala over the protected Keeppowers?

What spring do you recommend?

There is no big difference with original driver, but with FET driver the Keeppower deliver about 9 Amperes, the Liitokala almost 12 Amperes.

They fit my L6 very nice with a connecting magnet.

I personally am totally pleased with the LiitoKala’s. All 12 of mine test out above the stated 5000 mAh. Price is right. They work 100% reliably in the L6. What more could one ask for???

And as for the tail spring, if I were you I would not rush right out and change it till you try yours out. I have three L6’s and it would be absolutely useless to change the tail springs in any of the three.

Hope this helps…………… :slight_smile:

Will do. I think perhaps an earlier version may have had weaker springs Mitko is referring to. Perhaps Simon has already addressed the issue. Thanks.
