Your welcome. Maybe they will, on all the others I have some will & some won’t. No rhyme or reason to it either… just luck of the draw.
That connector is what I use on the one’s that need it. Only bad thing about buying those 1 or 2 at a time is shipping kills you …… :person_facepalming:
So I bought a handful of them last time I bought and the shipping was not much more than buying one.
If you want one PM me your address and I’ll send you one. :+1:
Thank you. I will pm you when I need it… by the way, they shipped out the 4x 26650 within 24 hours from AliExpress. I will update the delivery time and battery status.
Some 5500mAh 26650 did come up a few month ago (can’t remember when or where, but same baby blue wrapping) and i would have expected LiitoKala to follow up…
Testing now a pair of blues from GB i received a couple month ago. No “F1” on the first line of label.
PS: Both cells came out over 5150mAh on my Opus BT C3100 at 1A - which is known to be a tad optimistic. Those are from the last batch GB was selling a couple month ago - they are out of stock now. On their pictures the cells had only one line of text above the bar code whereas the ones i received and tested have two.
+ 3.6V 18.0Wh F1 -
INR26650-50A VB15I19D 03327
I haven’t tried them in serie.
So far they look like the real thing - whatever it is.
Got the code here: Gearbest Official Deal thread (July 8th part 2 - code still works today)
When they arrive I’ll test capacity on my Lii-500 charger/analyzer and post the results here.
Thanks for the heads-up beam0, just ordered a set of 4 and will see how they compare to the pale blue ones I already have. Good deal with the coupon, nice catch!
No problem, yeah great price, hope they’re good. I finally went to order those blue ones and found out about the change over to these.
I did the standard shipping but I added the shipping insurance ($1.20) …probably should have got the 4-pack.
Just receive mine new ones, I can tell you that they can’t be connected in series and that they came with 3.8V in them. Put one of them for NOR test and I will post result here after finish.
I use magnets when I need to connect in series and batteries are flat top, this is just a notice that they could make it to be connected in series like some other factories that make same things like Keeppower or Sanyo.
