10 18650s at HD for $22?

The one I opened up was a 2012, can't read the date on the one still in the package though.

Found em at my local HD!! Does anyone need any? There are like 10 packs here…

look at EDCplus comments… hes got quite a deal going for these

Ok I will, 7 packs are from 2012 and 5 are from 2011 (according) to the label at the bottom.

So I only bought 3 packs. These showed 2 bars when I pressed the test button, the rest showed only 1 bar… lets see how the voltage is … time to open 1 up.

If you’d rather get a very good deal from edcplus, don’t open them up unless you need high drain cells

Or even if you need high drain cells, I can get you some brand new ones, even the same ones that are in the pack of you want. :slight_smile:

I have some CGR18650CH’s on hand along with IMR 26650’s. Any other high power cell I’d special order, but its not a problem for me to get them…

Not a sigle pack to be had at any of he 3 home depots around me… Dang, really wanted some shiney new panisonics

Such a generous offer from EDCPlus!.

I'll definitely be sending a couple of packs to you (I just picked up 2 from Home Depot).

wanna sell me one? so i can trade it to edcplus? :bigsmile:

17??? Sheeeeet... I somehow doubt EDCPlus needs that many.

he said in PM he will take all we can get

He sure must have a lot of leaves to blow around! :slight_smile:

so how much you want for one of those battery packs?

Its great to see that no one has blown themselves up yet to save a few dollars on some very low capacity cells. I hope it stays that way. Good luck to all…

@Flashpilot, very true. These things are a PIA to take apart.

Following the thread, it sure looks that way. Just makes my cringe to think that a dead short can be welded in a fraction of a second, and then…

Who would of thought that drilling out a screw head would spin the screw deeper into the pack and almost pierce one of the cell casings all the way thru. It was very close. I brought that cell outside and it vented there.

When I was taking mine apart I was literaly sitting 3 feet from the door with an ammo can, a gas mask, and a shovel (to pile dirt on it). That thing was scary...

PM’s responded too. :slight_smile:

And Yes I will take all the packs I can get. I will keep a few for personal use and have other uses for them as well. May even use a few in an electric scooter wired in series. :slight_smile:

If everyone does end up trading packs to me I may end up with over 50 haha. >) Then I can power my house! j/k
