/\ Amenā¦. 
Why do some people feel theyāre so special they have to continue to post the same thing over and over again in an unrelated thread? Like their opinion is gold and is more important than othersā¦
Like beating a dead horse. Glad you got something that works for you and you like better, this is a group buy thread for a great charger at a great price, can we PLEASE stick to discussion of this charger???
Its like this in every thread he posts in! For someone who doesnāt have time to put 4 buttons they sure do have lots of time to post the same thing over and over againā¦ Get a life man, glad your happy with the product you have and use, thatās great, but lots of people are happy with other stuff and donāt necessarily want to hear about your choices in every thread [not] on the subject. Talk about a time waster.
Yeah, it seems the most expensive shipping pops up as the ādefaultā nowā¦ it was $13.65 to Alabama. :person_facepalming:
Of course I quickly found the cheap0 optionā¦. $1.30 just like yours Theodoreā¦ 
I guess they are hoping some people wonāt take the time to change itā¦. 
Also, this time I had to add ā+001ā in front of my phone number to ba able to place the order. That has changed since the last time I ordered something.
Either way the order is placed. :+1:
Hopefully it will ship close to the projected fulfillment date of 18 June.
I havenāt used to the name Theodore in years! Itās Beaver dammit!
Huh, what happened here?
Why is he so angry?
And his grammarā¦ isnāt good to say the least of it.
[sb56637 edit: The above refers to a screenshot that was later removed.]
Back on topic though, why did they remove the internal resistance checker? Was it inaccurate?
To put it mildly, yes. 
I believe there is a DIY fix for it, though. Link to fix: LiitoKala/Colaier Lii-500 inconsistent IR measurements FIXED
The issue has been corrected so out of respect for everyone else I removed the screenshot. Thank you SB
I thought youād get a kick out of that my friend!! I watched a couple of episodes this morningā¦. those were the days. . :+1:
Take care buddyā¦ā¦
You too pal. Iāll call you soon my friend
TYā¦. looking forward to it. 
Dang,
Hope it wasnāt me. Iām offended that everyone is always offended about something. I bet someone owes me something for something. Now Iām angry. See how this works.
Just to stay on subject so I donāt get my face bit off. I really use my Lii-500 a lot. I have 2 of them. With the couple of added features on the new unit, it will make this a very popular charger especially for the price.
I ordered the 500S based on the information on the Liitokala website that indicated it did include the 300mA charging current option, like the old model. I later emailed Liitokala to ask if that information was correct, when I found the instruction manual and saw it did not say the 300mA option is available in the new model. The answer from Emily indicates they eliminated the 300mA option.
I was at first upset about the incorrect information on their website, until I realized that my 16340 cells have between 650 and 750mAH capacity, and my AAA cells have a minimum of 750. A 500mA charging current will be fine for those cells, and Iāll charge my 18650ās at 1A. The cell manufacturers say a quality cell will remain perfectly healthy and maintain its full number of charging cycles when charged at up to 0.8C in a quality charger, and even above that rate in most cases. I donāt think I need to worry, given that 500mA will be below 0.8C for my smallest cells, and I donāt re-charge my small cells often. And this charger has very good over-heating and over-charging protection, as well.
500mA is about perfect for AAA NiMH cells.
However, for smaller lithium-ion cells(10440), itās pushing it a bit.
Warning: off-topic, but still relevant to BG purchases.
Yea, Iāve noticed this new ābehaviorā just over the past week or two. Itās ridiculous and probably not even profitable, since it gives customers a shock when they see the checkout price and they may simply cancel the order out of annoyance.
I added a $12 item to my cart and the default shipping charge was over $14. Do they think that such a tactic will sell more products? I felt slightly angry and highly insulted, which I wouldnāt consider to be an effective business strategy.
This is hopefully a programming or configuration error, but if not then itās just Banggood being Banggood.
@ leftdisconnected
I know what you mean, when I first saw that I thoughtā¦ ādo they really think āweā are that stupidā?
I think theyāre hoping we wouldnāt notice.
The flip side is they probably have just as many newbies who order and expect their item in 2-3 days. In those cases defaulting to faster shipping would reduce a lot of customer service issues.
What voltage for lion does this charger terminate?
I hope under 4.2
I ruined my opus I need a new charger
My old one does. About 4.18V - 4.2V, depending on battery.
Just curiousā¦ how did you āruin your opusā??
Perfect,
Inserted a cell backwards. It fried it.
