!! 5000 !! mAh Ultra Fire Batteries !!!!

it always hurts when “uneducated” people buy things like that…. :frowning:

Link to the shop

They meant to say that you’ll get 5000mah for all 8 combined :Sp

How does an “educated” person know that this battery is fake?

Ban Tmart from Earth, tnx.

There are lots of ways to become “educated” about these batteries being fake. Here are a few:

  1. The most certain way to learn is to buy them and test them for yourself. There are methods and equipment to find the exact capacity of the cells.
  2. The highest quality brands don’t go over 3400mAH (Edit: 3600mAH) per cell. These are big companies that are in competition with each other. If they could get to 5000mAH per cell, they would. They don’t. Yet these cheap cells make it there?
  3. There are websites filled with people who have tested lots of different cells. This forum is one of those places. Reading up in places like this is the easiest way to learn.

I recently tested 4 of these in the red wrapper version that a colleague from work had bought.
They ranged between 880mAh and 1240mAh :Sp

Pretty good guess.

How could anybody be stupid as to buy those 5000mAh cells when these are available for just a little more.

:bigsmile:

Someone needs to make a wrapper for their 18650s: “One beellion mAh”

I have some that say 5600mAh on them, but those 8800mAh take the cake! I'll have to pick up some of those.

The 5600mAh Ultrafires I have are also much lighter than any other Japanese cell I own. I have been saving them for my own personal use instead of offering them for sale because I can't find anything that can match them.

Much lighter than other cells? I wonder if those cells are fake cells with the tiny battery baggie inside surrounded by mystery powder.

Nah, they have so much energy they possess negative gravity. I believe that fully charged they hover.

I have purchased and tested these batteries and I was a little disappointed. On my IONFIRECHARGER 208B they recordered 6500mAh at 5 amp discharge.

hey at least the wrapper is green as they claim.
btw panasonic makes a 3600 but you dont see them often.

Ooh yeah this is what you would call monkey business :smiley:


hehe

No need. Just grab a few dead cells and have your own wrapper made.

That’s right!
I ordered some of the UltraFire wrappers from FastTech so that I can wrap all the dead, spent cellls I get from the recycle bins and sell them on EBay.

And just before I hit the order button, I realized that I shouldn’t order the BRC 4200 wrappers

but rather the BRC 4800 wrappers.

They don’t cost any more but I can sell BRC 4800 cells for more money. Pretty smart aren’t I? :wink:

ROFLOL pcb life about 10 years.
too bad cell life is only about 10 minutes!

i still say…

i would think it was “very witty” to buy a bunch of NOS laptop batterys to reclaim the half decent capacity cells? and get wrappers for them to become…

“SH!Tfire brand !”

oh, come on, you KNOW youd have to buy a couple just to be funny showing them off, lol…
