Amazon Deal Alerts & Discussion Thread

Amazon has the Streamlight Jr 71500 double AA flashlight for $18.51. It seems like a deal. I have a Sofirn SF13 , would this be much of an improvement quality wise?

Amazon lightning deal going on right now - Sofirn SC31 PRO $27.19 with deal and another 8% off with promo code JNN5OYVX which bring it to 25 bucks

Tenergy 2500mah Ni-Mh $15 for 12pc

Thanks for posting this Amazon "Lightning Deal" (about 80 minutes left to get this deal). There was also a Lightning Deal for the 24 pack ($27.99) with a slightly less price per cell that also included 6 battery cases so I went with that deal.

I have never used the Tenergy NiMH batteries (made in China) and for approximately half the price, I will be interested in seeing how they perform compared to the Energizer, Ladda, and Eneloops (all made in Japan) that I am currently using.

I will be torture testing these batteries in my wife's decorative string light arrangements and fake candles which have batteries configured in series with no low voltage protection and when the lights stop working (besides having very low voltages) sometimes one of the batteries in series has also temporarily reversed its voltage.

Good luck, I hope yours hold out better than the Tenergy AAA I picked up a couple years ago. Mine don’t hold a charge very well, my Panasonic and Fujitsu (Eneloop) chargers now refuse to charge them, and my Vapcell S4+ shows they have an internal resistance that’s off the charts (literally: the display maxes out at 999mOhm).

Still not as good as Eneloops, but I’ve had much better luck with the EBL cells.

I don’t know if Amazon is becoming more like Ali Express or the other way around.

At least it's encouraging that you did not report any leaking (my biggest concern).

I'm testing these Tenergy NiMH batteries made in China just to satisfy my curiosity.

The NiMH batteries made in Japan that we currently use still work OK after about two dozen charge cycles from very low voltages, even with some of the cells at a negative voltage when first taken out of the string lights and fake candles. None have leaked or caused any adverse problems while in use or while charging.

Yup, never seen any leakage. They’ve done no damage, mine just haven’t held up well.

Has anyone noticed that myvipon.com has loaded much quicker in the last week than previously?

(Maybe only I noticed it because my internet is so slow.)

how does this site work

Unno. They keep on polluting their listings with “deals” like from “Wish” or whatever. Turning them off (wish it were sticky vs having to do it every damned time) speeds things up, though, by getting rid of the garbage.

maybe.
maybe not.

12 AAA Amazon Rechargeables for $13.50.
