Samsung 30Q 18650 3000mAh 15A Battery $3.49ea

I just placed my first order with this store. I bought ten Samsung 30Qs (to get the volume discount), a Vapcell S4 Plus charger, and a few other items. I did a Google search to see if there was any coupon code and found this one: timmerz10. Using that code knocked 5% off which covered nearly half of my shipping cost.

I don’t have any beside some crappy lights I got on eBay before I know about this forum. I was advised to buy S2+ with Nichia 219c, 6*7135 driver. Or a Sofirn SP40. Didn’t order anything yet b/c long shipping delay due to Covid-19. Currently I use my eBay light at medium brightness and the maybe bad 18650 cell that comes with it. I only need light to walk/hike in the evening. So far those eBay lights are enough actually. I am just annoyed by the cold light and the lack of memory mode. I know low lower would be plentiful enough for me. But I do prefer good CRI or warm temperatures LED and good 18650 cells.

If you decide to buy an S2+ and you opt for one with 6*7135 or 8*7135 the driver will be soldered to the brass pill making it difficult to remove the driver if you later want to change the driver and LED.

The S2+ with 4*7135 does not have the driver soldered to the pill.There is a brass locking ring that makes it much easier to remove the driver should anything go wrong or a change is desired.

My favorite off the shelf S2+ is with the 5000k SST40 LED but your taste may be for a warmer tint than 5000K with more yellow in it.

The S2+ with an SST40 at this time is only in 6500k and 5000k;nothing warmer?

I own a Sofirn SP40 but IMO the S2+ is a better purchase.

Entering the code timmerz10 worked for me each time I've ordered.to get additional 5% off the entire order.

Sometimes it will show as not valid code but when entered again it works.

I have bought cells from 18650batterystore.com quite a few times, always authentic cells with good prices. No complaints from me… :wink:

Ok, one complaint…
… they have too much that I need/want (another $71.82 down the flashlight hole!)

That charger looked to good to pass up, my MiBoxer is tired. :smiley:

I feel lucky then,I dropped about 10 bucks less than you this time but the battery deals keep on coming.

Last month it was the Molicell P42A 21700 for $4.99 each($2.50 off)

The US economy is booming thanks to flashaholics!

I did the same, then I went over to IMRBatteries and picked up a few LG MJ1 18650 3500mAh 10A Battery - Protected Button Top cells for $3.99 each and a few other sale items. :smiley:

So much for my not needing any more batteries. I just went to that store and bought ten LG MJ1 18650 3500 mAh unprotected button top cells @ $2.99 each. I normally use Sanyo NCR18650GA 3500 mAh cells, but $2.99 for similar button top cells was too good a price to pass up.

I've bought a few things from IMR and even contemplated taking the 3 hour drive to Houston but it never came to pass.

Maybe during the summer and take in an Astro's game at the same time.

I'll also need an excuse to drive up to Arlington to see the new stadium.

I'm 100% behind supporting businesses here in the US before ordering on AE or BG.

I didn’t even know they were in Houston! Or I forgot. I’m getting old and don’t remember what I’ve forgotten :smiley:
I work 15 minutes away from them.

Whatsthepoint, sounds like you may be close to me, I’m about a half hour South of Waco.

I hear ya Texas Toasted, your name sounds good for me too, memory is toasted! Lol

It would take me about 1 1/2 hrs to drive to Waco up 35.

Was there not long ago to the Texas Ranger Museum.

I'm about a quarter mile outside NW Austin in Williamson County and maybe 10 miles west from Route 35 at Georgetown/Round Rock

Thanks got 5 and vapecell S4 charger.

I got 4 of the protected button tops for my lights that use series cells, like my Nitecore EC4GT, and I also got 4 of the unprotected button tops just because they are $2.99. I may be retiring my box of laptop pulls soon.

Got 4 Samsung 30Q and Vapecell s4 Plus Charger.

Thanks!

At the $34.99 price and the 5% off code at checkout it's hard not to buy the Vapcell S4+ charger if you have a US shipping address

Yesterday when I ordered 10 Samsung 30Q their was an additional $7.50 discount for buying the 10 but today that added discount was not applied when some people tried buying 10 or more today.

I'm seeing the same thing. Grumble... I'll wait for the qty. discount to return before I buy my cart.

Tomorrow morning open a chat with them by clicking on the chat button and let them know what you are experiencing that on Saturday there was a $7.50 quantity discount on an order of 10 that isn't being applied now.

I was gonna pick some of these up but decided to get some LG HG2’s which are also currently on sale. I want to make some 3s packs for endurance RC planes so figured the extra 5A discharge per cell couldn’t hurt. Thanks for the heads up on the deal!

Also it’s real Texas-y in this thread. Howdy y’all!

imrbatteries.com has the LG HG2L for $2.99
