Review request for HKJ [Rechargeable Batteries]

Alright, thanks! That’s good news. :wink:

Later this year there will allegedly be a Panasonic/Sanyo NCR20700C cell available, rated at 30A like the 20700A but with 200-300 more mAh.

I am interested in testing it, if anybody see a link where I can get it (I am in EU), please post it.

How did your order end?

With this review: Test/review of Sanyo NCR20700B 4000mAh (Red)

TrustFire IMR 14500 3.7V 700mAh please. :slight_smile:

We’ve talked about it about 2 months ago. In the meanwhile I received them from KD. I believe they’re really good for their money.

I got them at that time, it is one of the review I have not published yet.

I’d mix up the manufacturer.
Look there, they ship to every country in the EU:

It is the A and the coming C model I am interested in links to, I have tested the B model.
There is also a NCR20*65*0A model, I do have that in queue (I was planning on getting the NCR20700A and did not notice the difference).

Good to know Henrik. :slight_smile:
Waiting for your full review to be published, can you tell me (in brief) your opinion?

LG has two 20650 cells that I am aware of, but I have not seen them for sale to the public:

model M42: 15A and 4200mAh
model HG6: 20A and 3000mAh

I do not have any opinion yet, the data is still on the test station and I have not looked at it.

I am interested in testing them, if anybody see them in a shop that ships to EU, please post a link.

With regards to those Trustfire IMR14500 cells, good value for the money. Measured 80 & 82mΩ internal resistance for my units, which translates into up to ≈5A discharge rate.

Oh! By the way, HKJ, soldered a USB micro-B connector this evening. Measured resistance between the wire lines is ≈2.5MΩ, so I am wondering if this could be an issue, data wise of course. Damn…
Self-answering my previous question: data transmission issues. :|

Cheers ^:)

By the way:

Sanyo 20700A 30A 3100mAh 20700 Bench Test Results...a great performing 30A 3100mAh battery! @Mooch/ECF

On another note, the popular LiitoKala 26650A/B is still “untested”.

Cheers ^:)

Thanks for the info Barkuti. :slight_smile:

Sorry djozz, late to the party… I have already re-built my Ti/Cu EDC Quad 219C to take the new Efest 18500 1000mAh cell, it now delivers much better output with the slightly higher capacity and discharge rate. :slight_smile: (219C emitters, x4, ran some 2600 lumens on an 18350 but now makes 3400 lumens with the 18500. :wink: )

And I’m in the process of building a 2 Cell 20700 light with a 3 pound chunk of Tellurium Copper for the pill that will run 3 of the new XHP-50.2 emitters. The goal is in excess of 10,000 lumens, we’ll see. Gotta find some 20700A’s if not the C’s… Just yesterday I spent 5 hours on the lathe and the light is taking shape. The tube is bored, knurled, threaded to fit into the copper pill, which has the driver bay ready and is mated at the top with the adaptive piece the bezel will thread onto. I have to wait now on the 63.7mm x 29.5mm triple reflector so I can finish the light. The 3 XHP-50.2’s are also coming…. it currently weighs 1442 grams, but will lose some weight with the inset of reflector and tapering/finning process. :slight_smile:

The B cell does ok, I bored the tube of an older C8 that has ryansoh’s copper pill and the new XP-L2 emitter. With a Sony VTC6 I get slightly over 2000 lumens on this light, but with the new 20700B it “only” makes 1704 lumens. Can’t wait to see what the A cell does, when they become available again.

Thanks Heinrich, appreciate your review on these new cells and like you, am anxiously awaiting the new variant…

The only 21700 cell I have seen available for purchase (albeit with a 25pc minimum, from a company in Israel) is the Samsung INR21700-30T. Supposedly 30A (maybe 35A) and 3750mAh.

I have put in an order for enelong

Hi, thanks for your OUTSTANDING work!

Could you consider to test the Soshine 10440 and 14500 batteries as they seems to be quite popular in chinese online shops.
