Freeme I get that it’s not supposed to compete with the LT1 but when the appearance is so similar, comparisons will happen. I’m interested to see the specs (and details like if the LEDs are on the top or bottom).
Hopefully the charging circuit has a cutoff so that it won’t try to charge things below 2.0V or something so nobody blows up AAs in it.
I have a hunch it will not charge NiMH batteries or anything else below a certain threshold that would indicate a healthy lithium-ion battery is installed. This would confuse many users, but would make sense unless it has a fairly sophisticated charging circuit.
I’m not jumping in yet, but I will watch this thread for more details.
I would really prefer the UI be simple (one click on, one click off, and 3 modes or a simple ramp). I like the idea and design. really like the rechargeable aspect! and also the option for Nimhd (i hope). oh, and Hi Cri is awesome too!
4 of my epoch 14500's is 4000mah (in parallel of course, im sure these will be parallel) so essentially a lantern with a 40t, thats good for me.
