hello from singapore

Hi! I had been lurking here for many many months and decided to register. I had already participated in BLF Eagle GB and just “instant kill” a AceBeam K40M from Wallbuy.

Couple of questions I would like to ask.

1. What batteries would be good to power the K40M?

2. Bought 4 NCR18650B Gold Plating and 2 were marked made in china and the others marked made in japan. Are Panasonics NCRs ever made in china and are these counterfeits?
Would like to attach a picture but don’t how.

I am not a technical person and do not understand the electronics talk but I do like flashlights (torchlights), just a plug and play kinda guy (actually old man, am in my golden years now).

Thanks and Hello again.

Welcome cocoschnauzer they are not made in China where did you buy them from.

To upload a pic you need to upload to a host like Flicker then you can link it here but clicking on the tree image( Insert/edit Image).

Thanks for the welcome, how2. Bought from BG. I don’t have account with any host so maybe it’s time I find one.

Please enjoy your time here, cocoschnauzer!

Thank you raccoon city. I have been enjoying myself here since many moons ago.

Just got myself an account with flickr (thanks to how2). Will try to upload the image of the NCR18650s for comments.

Welcome!

Welcome cocoschnauzer.
Panasonic do have li-ion battery factory in China. I think it’s ok, just strange they don’t send you same batch batteries.
