What's The Word On These New Trustfires

Anybody have any experience with these? Are they better than the other good Trustfire flame batteries?

They aren't new - take a look at this test:

I tested the 18350s and they performed very well.

I got about 2500mAh @2,8A discharge from them (down to 3.0V), I like them, my new favourites.

They are a bit cheaper at DD: http://www.dinodirect.com/batteries-3000mah-lithium-rechargeable-currency-EUR.html?cur=USD

I have some from lightake, manafont and DD, they all perform well.

Sounds like I need to try some then. Thanks.

Anyone know what's inside? Old stock sanyo? They seem to be going cheap at the moment (under $4 bulk I think), or am I being too hopeful at that price?

I ripped one out of its wrapper, no signs or markings on the cell.

Are the DD ones definitely protected? Also in the description it says the following:

"Xenon flashlight with large power like WF-500, L1200 L600 is not supported by this battery"

Why would that be when they use 18650?

Thanks Joerch, I think the xtar 2600s direct or the callies kustoms are still the best options then, xtars for best mah x quality per dollar and callies kustoms if you want top performance.

I think they just aren't low enough resistance to provide really high currents as some incans need, or the PCM would cut in at those currents maybe, suspecting a short.

Yes, they are. I have 6 of Dinodirect and all are protected.

Thanks. Will order a couple to try out.

I'm still waiting together with charger from DD!
