Iâm not confused. Iâve been charging the battery inside the flashlight since Iâve had it. If thereâs any confusion itâs determining which opinions, which information and which direction to go. There is so much information , varying opinions and it is hard to determine which ones are credible. My job to determine that. And go from there.
You see the Anker charger I posted pictures of? Thatâs the charger Iâm using and the Eve battery is inside the flashlight.
So is that safe to charge it that way and then use it with the EVE battery??
The other guy(Kiko2) was telling me differently that is not safe and all this stuff can happen using the Eve 46950.
So again I have to figure out whoâs credible maybe Iâll call my cousin up who is an electrical engineer.
As I mentioned in an earlier post. Iâve charged the Eve battery inside the flashlight using my Anker 65W charger and used it five times. The Eve battery.
How do you know that? Did you measure the capacitance or the internal resistance?
Iâm not as technical as a lot of you guys. I could tell by how the light operated. Thatâs all that matters to me. The length of Turbo and the output of Turbo was noticeably different. Are you going to tell me now that the human eye cannot differentiate between various amounts of lumens?
What you call a charger is, after all, a power supply. When you connect the Anker charger to your mobile phone to charge it, the charging process is managed by the controller built into your phone. It controls the amount of current (amps) that flows, and the Anker power supply simply delivers it. The same applies to flashlights and other electronic devices; they manage their own charging. Itâs a completely different story if you were charging the battery directly without a controller, which isnât the case here. In that scenario, the battery would need its own integrated controller. Thatâs all

You didnât answer my question. Is it safe to charge the eve battery in the flashlight with the Anker power supply and then use that Eve battery in the flashlight?
Thx
What makes you think that if the manufacturer offers that USB-C charging option itâs not safe?
Itâs completely safe. The only thing you need to keep in mind is that the bottom of the battery should be insulated, just like the original Lumintop battery. You can put a plastic sheet over it to prevent it from touching the flashlightâs chassis, since the negative terminal connects directly to the top, as does the positive terminal.

Thanks⌠can I glue it on so it doesnât keep getting stuck at the bottom of the body? Then when I use the Lumintop battery I wonât have to dig it out.
The concern was the blue Eve battery not the charging method.Especially after what Kiko2 shared.
More likely than not itâs going to be all irrelevant because Iâm going to have a one and done experience with this battery. Iâm probably going to put the light up for sale again.
The EVE battery is the same type (lithium-ion), has the same nominal voltage (3.7V), and the same number of cells (1). Whatâs the problem?
By the way, the original Lumintop battery also lacks any protection circuitry, just like the vast majority of cells sold, since in most cases the devices theyâre intended for already have it.
Excuse my English, but Iâm using Google Translate

The problem is contradictory information from different people. See screenshots. Heâs telling me itâs not safe to charge that Eve battery in my flashlight because it doesnât have over discharge protection or whatever. And then all the things that can happen Sparks explosions Etc LOL
Iâm pretty sure you said the flashlight has over discharge protection when you charge it in there.
Howâs this sir? I used my 45-year-old German Landscaping hand pruners to shape it! Still as sharp as a razor.
Itâs a pill bottle top from Walgreens the big bottle, so I have plenty of drugs.
If I keep it. Should I put that plastic disc in there when I charge the eve battery? Thanks for your help sir.
I put the custom-made plastic disc in the light with the Eve battery and it worked. Its thin enough not to screw up with the connection.
What do I think? That youâre doing it backwards.
The terminal youâre covering is the positive one, and you need to cover the negative one, on the bottom of the battery as shown in the images I showed you.
Itâs best if it covers the entire circular surface of the battery.
You have to use it every time the EVE battery, both for charging it with the flashlight and for using it with the flashlight.
Also, the sheet needs to be thin, like the blue protective cover that comes with the battery, so it hardly changes its overall length.
What? That is the bottom of the battery tube just like the bottom of the battery which doesnât have the plastic insulator.
Is it the top of the battery both positive and negative? The bottom of the battery is neither correct? The photo you sent me is installed just like mine?
So what is the purpose of the photo you sent me of supposedly your light with a piece of plastic at the bottom of the tube?
The insulator on the Lumen top battery is at the bottom of the tube the top of the tube is a negative and a positive thatâs how I measure the voltage
Yes, itâs perfect. The picture confused me, and I thought it was the battery, but upon closer inspection, itâs the inside of the flashlight tube. Sorry, everythingâs fine.
In fact, the entire body of the battery, except for the positive pole, is the negative pole.
You can also put a sticker on the negative terminal of the battery, so you donât have to keep an eye on the plastic sheet . It will do the same job and wonât be as cumbersome.
