The USPS is saying they should be delivered on Tuesday the 20th. Can’t wait to see if they make a difference in the Ti X6….
Got my 8 in a few minutes ago. First 2 are close to being charged up, will test them in the Ti X6 I bought em for…
In the triple XHP-50.2 light these, freshly charged, yield 9660 lumens. The rested pair of dark metallic purple Efests gave 10,005 and when recharged gave 10,350. In my Titanium Quad Nichia 219 EDC I see 14.5A from the Efest 18500 cell and 10.6A from one of these brand new Aspire 18350. The 18500 is rated as a 1000mAh 15A cell, so I had hoped the Aspire at some 1200mAh and the same 15A rating might fare as well, but it doesn’t.
I got 6 in the mail yesterday and pulled all my 18350 lights. Some are regulated well and had no change. S41 and BLF A6 ran about 0.5-1.1 amps better than the Kinoko 850’s and the Efest 700’s. So now we have a higher amp, higher capacity battery that I can only seem to order 6 at a time without outrageous shipping. Probably better this way.
I just received my set of 4 (max for reasonable shipping cost to Sweden) and after charging I put one in a S41 with 219B. It is very noticeable brighter than with any other 18350 I have tried. Very nice 18350 indeed.
They showed up yesterday!
Nice and safe packaging BTW.
At 1100mAh and compared to a 900mAh 18350 (if they exist) that’s at least a 22% increase in capacity.
It’s like receiving a 4200mAh 18650! :partying_face:
Got two Aspires from nonsmokers.dk today. They are from different batches marked PG05 and PG06 with different barcodes. There’s a significant difference in the IR.
The five cells i received from Aspire are all PG05 like the ones reviewed here.
That sharp drop to less then 4V at 1A is disturbing and does not show on the OP first post though… It would be closer to the 3A discharge curve?
Would be nice to see a confirmation from another source….this might be just a better specimen.
Anyone with 2 different batches willing to test? :cowboy_hat_face:
