Letās not encourage off-topic fear-mongering. At least not in this thread. It tends to have unfortunate effects on humans, and there are other threads where it may be more relevant.
Quad-XXX, the Q8 has no built-in charging because most people didnāt want it, and they have valid reasons for their preference. If someone wants a version with charging badly enough, they are free to start a new project and a new thread for it, but painting gory pictures here is not a productive way to make that happen.
Safety is important for high-power devices like li-ion cells. People should only use quality cells and quality chargers, with someone around, to reduce risk of fires or injuries. Cheap cells and cheap chargers are known to be dangerous, especially if left unattended.
@BlueSwordM Do you know the difference between a paramedic and a policeman? All I remember was an ice, searching the ice, shouting the ice, punching all neighboursā door and calling more ice. One hour later I had to be in the another place.
Just wanted to let everyone know my Q8 XPL-HI came in today. Pretty awesome. I may buy another from Amazon when they arrive. I would think that will happen pretty soon if mine has made it in. Thank you djozz and Sofirn (Barry).
Looks good. I must be the only one who actually likes the flat. I'll buy the SF36 with the battery tube with the flat sides if you can sell it to me when it becomes available?
LOL, I told Barry that many people do not like the flat bits.
(I even like the old SD10 battery styling best: fully round with plain knurling, no stripes)
