Hi all, i need some assistant on buying 3 flashlights and batteries and chargers all for gifts of course.
What i have been requested is tactical flashlights with decent battery life and on/off switch on the back.
Actually, not much! but Peho seems to have the answer so they will not blow up! I looked a bit more at the charger. Is it unsafe to use it with unprotected batteries or in the wrong settings? I guess i could teach them how to use it.
Option A has more quality indeedā¦
That seems a nice and safe charger thx. The only difference is that Liitokala works as a power bank too, but safety comes first since it has temperature sensor and other safety features.
So you agree on batteries and torch chosen and we add a safer charger. Thank you guys. Tomorrow iāll add my order. Thank you for your time
Convoy C8 is good choice and you can look at KD C8 OP i think it is good for 10 USD, i measured around 2A on high and cca 0,5 on low. You need throwy light for some purpose ? S2 is also good and its good for EDC and i personally love it for bicycling.
Iād pay a little more and go with Simonās store to order the Convoy. That Gearbest light is only offered in one cool white tint, where as Simonās store you can choose a more pleasing warmer tint and your choice of mode functions.
The Liitokala Lii_100 charges within specification for Li-on at 4.22v as Li-ion charging is 4.20v +/- 0.05v or 4.15v-4.25v.
Besides being a power bank & charging Li-ion up to 32650 size it also charges LiCoO2 (4.35v), LiFeP04 (3.5/3.6v), NiMH & NiCd.
HKJ review here Review of Charger LiitoKala Lii-100
All for under $4
I have several of them & rate them really highly
Yea better to teach them some peoples charger where charging to 4.26 volts so not major but still a problemā¦ you can fit protected Cells in the c8 so that will help to make sure they donāt over drain them.
Charging to 4.26v or at 4.26v ?
I can only speak from personal experience.
All 4 of my Lii-100ās, 3 orders from 2 different vendors charge at 4.22v according to my DMM.
My cells come off the chargers at 4.19v & settle at 4.18 after resting.
+1 to RobertBās comments. I think the OPās first choice is a good one.
I own quite a few C8ās and none of them can match the quality of the Convoyās.
Compare two side by side and the fit and finish of the Convoy is obvious.
The threads on this UltraFire donāt feel like they are lubed but after editing this photo, I can see that they are. Nice threads on the Convoy.
Again better threads on the Convoy.
On the Fire brands, I have to chase the lens o-ring back into place with my thumbnail. Not so with Convoyās.
Thatās my 2 cents on the flashlight, I have no knowledge on the charger.
Thank you all so much . Had no knowledge of the convoyās. I am going to order one for myself :laughing:
And kaidomain is so cheap. Just passed all the info because i think the best is to choose the modes and the tint themselves.
Havenāt bought flashlights for a few months and i can feel the bug coming back :laughing:
