Eh?

Meh!

Yes?

Scratching head…… if you can access this forum you can access any number of places to buy 2400 or 3500 mAh 18650’s. Real capacity too!

I guess I don’t understand why the question is posed?

6

I have current access to plenty of places to buy then.

7

Yep, just bought some 3500mah from Mountain Electronics.

8

Well I don’t have any 3400mah batteries. Yes I can buy some! but I do not own any. So I am wondering how many people own 3400mah cells seeing nitecore has jumped to using 3400mah or there ansi rating test.

9

I have some 3400 & 3500

10

Me too! - Plus I already had 4 when I ordered another 4. - They are good.

I have NCR 18650B 3400mah too - Whoop-de-do! :slight_smile: They are also good, but there may be better, depending on application.

Some LG MH1… HE2’s… And many others that are considered to be lesser, old stuff.

I’m sorry, but I really don’t understand your problem? - If you got the money,then ‘they’ got the cells!

I already have 3200mah cells I use thanks

I guess OP is doubting that 3400mah capacity really exists?

13

The 3400mAh cell has been in the market since 2012 and the NCR18650B can be had for reasonable price in the stock form.
I bought 4 pieces for 24 bucks from GB when they were on sale. I tested the capacity with Opus BT C3100 and they are legit 3400mAh, so to me 3400mAh are almost the de facto standard as they are readily available.
If flashlight companies start to use 3400mAh cell for their ANSI test, I think it’s time they do so.

I think easier if OP change the thread title to “Do you own any 3400mAh cell” as his original title is confusing

14

I’ve had NCR 18650Bs for a few years. Just bought some 3500mAH 18650GA’s recently too. Not yet arrived but should soon.

15

i am going to be a beginner here are there any high drain like high amp 3400mah batteries. i was just wondering how many of yous own these cells. i was still under the impression they are harder to find? its been a while since i looked into it. so maybe now they are easy and cheaper to buy.

thanks you all for the feed back i will get on it and buy some…

just another question would you like to see a standard raised for MAH for ANSI testing?

I use my NCR18650B for my K40M!

BTW the GA has a higher voltage at 4.35v so capacity will be lesser than 3500mAh unless u have a hobby charger that can charge the cell to 4.35v

18

You don't need a hobby charger, there are several 'regular' chargers that have 4.35V settings. e.g. Xtar SP1 & WP2H

19

Nkon lists it at 4.2 volts.Wrathbringer,where did you see 4.35v?

I also have some 18650B 3400 mah. Great batteries
