Hmmmm, thanks. I was thinking he had said just a few post back he “should do one”???
I’ll check it out, cause I always love his reviews. Thanks again……
Edit: Never mind that was a comment about doing a “mod thread” in post # 180. I just misread it.

Yea, I really do like it as well. It just feels like quality, and it's small, compact, and can be made quite powerful. I was really intrigued by the U11 too, and got one couple weeks ago at a great price and am really impressed with it. It's another light that feels great in your hand, has a very similar style of the U21, plus has the portability to carry with you all the time. I always liked compact 18650 lights that can easily be EDC'ed, but also has some throw - the U11 is that light. So mine survived bout 2 weeks before I had to find out how moddable it really is.
Unfortunately, those batteries have been “nerfed” , so typicaly for China producers…not that bad actualy yet nerfed
The capacity now is arround 5000mah( 5400-5500) before yet the int resistance rised and ofc max amp values dropped by 200-300ma
Even so its equal to Efest 4200 Pirple, yet noone can guarantee us future nerfs
It has also a new code…..At least those coming from GB
Boy, that's some bad news... But never heard the expression "nerfed" before. I really was thinking the LK's were an upgrade to the "Powerizer" 26650 cell that for dropped by the seller couple years ago - best performing 26650 cell at the time. Me and Dale might have been the only ones into them, or least reporting on them. The labeling looks very much the same between the two, so might have been the same source.
It was invented by US WoW players 10 years ago, after Blizzard constant characters “nerfs”
By that time i used to play that game with a Paladin, a shitty character but impossible to kill too, rofl
Yeah Tom, thats how the new ones look like, you can clearly see the code difference compared to my first picture

These may not be terrifically accurate, but sure as @#$% you won't miss them much if you calibrate 'em with a fine adjuster. LoL!

Even considering cell “C” came from a different manufacturer (PLB vs Hengji Battery), the cells are well matched.

If you can fit a tad above 130mm of battery lenght on a 2D tube, I don't see why not.
Remember to install a 2S battery management board if under-discharge protection is required.

Orders from GB? I’d order more but shipping is killing the deal now. $18.49 for shipping of 4 cells for $20.39.
Tom E. Regarding a post of yours I saw. How are you getting over 200kcd out of your Manker U21? If i may ask. :). I tried to read if you had modded, but couldn’t find it.

It's a little ironic they give a light to a modder to review. What do they expect?
They got a good review that helped me decide to obtain this Manker; I have been pleased with it too.

Thank you very much side-cross,I’ll see.
In which other flashlights can these batteries works perfectly except Convoy L6 and Manker U21?

Wonder if these from RIC are still the old style: http://cnqualitygoods.com/goods.php?id=2250
I use these LK's in pretty much all my single 26650 lights, and then some - tons of lights.
I use these LK batteries in my single cell 26650 lights too with no problem.

Tom E and sidecross please name some of yours single cell 26650 lights.
I use these batteries in the Fenix PD40 and FD40 as well as the Manker U21.

“Nerfed”, LoL! Remembers me of my much earlier times of playing dumba$$ online “role” playing games.
Those units seem good on the pictures Tom E but, how do we know what batch of cells they're stocking?

I have had good results from Soshine 500mAh batteries I bought last year; they are protected and well under 70mm for use in series.

These cells are good, but they are bigger than specification which can be a problem.
I use them in a Manker U21 and a Cometa.Very satisfied.
Received one 26650 Liitokala from gearbest. Put it through the Lii-500 capacity test and after 19 hours it shows 5266mAh but at 3,55v...
I don't understand, is it safe to use? Also it doesn't fit in to my Shadow JM35.
altblf, may I suggest you to get a cheeeap multimeter?

For crying out loud m8, your Li500 is in a test mode not charge mode:) it could be clearly seen in the provided photo
Update!

Ha! Yeah I forgot it doesn’t charge it after testing… Thanks
Will this batteries work with ROP Maglite Mod?
If you can fit a tad above 130mm of battery lenght on a 2D tube, I don't see why not.

Old good kind is back , the last 2 orders that i got came to be from the good old ones
I`ve tested them agains the newest Efest purple model and Li 26650 performed better with our fet dd drivers
Yet, they dont perform great with buck drivers, for instance Efest 5200 or Soshine 5500 works better with them
Ordering from Gearbest or other site?

But here, from your OP: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1PCS-LiitoKala-26650-50A-5000mah-26650-Li-ion-3-7v-Rechargeable-Battery-for-Flashlight-20A/32591381104.html
$6.53 each in 12 ours from now, plus $3.79 shipping. Might be best deal.
But actually still cheaper at here depending on qty. For 4, at $7.10 each, best deal.
