That to high. I can get good battery less expensive.

:stuck_out_tongue:

I wish they could fine those companies that deliberately use false advertising like that

I agree or shut them down, I know several people that went out and spent $10-$20 to get what they thought was a high lumen light only to recieve a cheap $2.99 clone.

To be fair, I’ve see some non-english sites where they really did mean to type 800 and goofed and typed 8000. But yeah, most of that really does make me laugh.
I’m working on a “Real World Review” of a headlamp that made those sorts of claims right now. Much to my surprise it’s turning out to be a pretty decent headlamp, but no 8000 lumen barn burner.

Some light make outrageous claims… and then turn out to be okay and I find myself wondering why the manufacturers aren’t just proud of what their light ACTUALLY does
(case in point)

Well, I think that’ll be a good match for those “6800mah” ultrafire 18650’s

Edit: Forgot the smileys. :smiley: :stuck_out_tongue:

Do 18650 false claims max out at 9900mah?

(I think that's the highest I've seen.)

Looks like GTL managed to squeeze out a few more milliamps (not really):

But GIF seem to be the real winner:

12 000 mah, now that’s impressive :person_facepalming:

Tesla should stop development of 20700 and ask for GIF’s help. :wink:

I think they meant to put a decimal after the zero 120.00mah but someone in the printing department didn’t do their job. :rage:
