Got my set of 4 of the 20R batteries today. They came in individual sleeves, inside two plastic 18650 cases, inside a padded envelope. They look great. They all came out of the package at 3.56V. Voltage was the same for all four. I am looking forward to using them in some high drain applications.
Thanks to RMM for a fast response, good packaging and a good product at a great price.

Hi, thanks for supplying these cells.
I’m having a problem in the checkout “Warning: No Shipping options are available. Please contact us for assistance!”
Due to my non US location?
Assistance appreciated

Will your LG ICR18650D1 come PINK ? that's the only color I've seen them in.
Is there a higher capacity 10440 than the 340mAh Efest? not fake, overrated numbers
nice Store

The Efest is the best there is in 10440s.
Just be sure to charge at ~250mA or less, otherwise you could reduce its capacity.

You mean 250mA or less?
According to:
HKJ Test
The stated 350mAh capacity on the label seems about right if they were discharged down to 2.5V even at a discharge current of 1A-1.5A so that would make a 0.5C charge of 175mA conservative enough.
I just use 100mA, slow but gentle

Less is always good.
250mA is 0.8C going by HJK’s measured capacity of 308mAh. means “about”.
Manufacturers often recommend charging at 0.8C or less.
Edited to add ‘or less’ to my other post. :bigsmile:

Hi RMM, Are the Evva 18650’ batteries as good as the KeepPower Batteries? Have you done a test on these cells or are there any reviews for these batteries?

While there haven’t been any formal technical comparisons done yet, I believe that they are. They use the same quality base cells, the quality of the wrappers is the same, they both use the same Seiko protection IC, and they both use the same MOSFETs (although the Evva actually has one more MOSFET on the NCR18650B model).
Check out this thread for a visual comparison.

I guess the cat’s out of the bag now! Didn’t want to announce anything until they were almost here.
I am also stocking a few Carclo optics so you triple guys don’t have to order from several different places anymore. Oh, and the single item Noctigon prices will be identical or near identical to those from IOS (except no free shipping)… except you get your stuff much faster!

RMM:
The “webstore”:http://mtnelectronics.com is up in running. It’s super ugly. It’s missing tons of descriptions. It is almost entirely devoid of pictures. These negative aspects will change in the near future, but what won’t change is my commitment to keep costs as low as possible! To help ease the blow of having to use the haphazard site, I am offering a 2% discount code “1ST2TRY” which is valid until 11/17/13 at 11:00 PM PST. I’ll admit that the site is currently lacking finesse, but I’ve been burning the midnight oil trying to find the time to get it to the point of functionality. I will be working throughout the weekend and next week to complete product listings, add photos, and squash bugs. Speaking of bugs, if you have any major problems with the site, please PM me. Efest IMR 10440, 16340, & 18350 are now available! Check them out at the “store!”:http://mtnelectronics.com
Warning: Coupon is either invalid, expired or reached it's usage limit!

Make sure you open a ticket at FT. I had two orders RTS. It took 12 days because their bloody replies took 2-3 days, but I got refunded.
