What is the recommended cheap budget charger now? I received 5 faulty ones from Manafont and I'm looking for a alternative.
Bit more than 5 bucks, but I like my xtar mp1...
I had good results with my Trustfire TR-002 before I gave it away with a flashlight for a friend...
It's a universal charger and not 18650-only and is a little more expensive @ $7.80 but mine had no problems. The only issue is MF doesn't sell this model...
I'll also add that I have two of the $5 chargers that have had issues recently and both of mine work properly. One is a couple of months old from MF and works great and the second is the one from the DD 502b discount buy combo pack, and it also works properly with no <POOF>ing. Maybe just a bad lot from the factory... I would give them a second chance for a future purchase since I know MF will take care of me if I get another dud.
