Mini review: Trustfire TR-803, now modded to pocket rocket

I have about 20 Trustfire flame 16340 and they all push 2.7-2.8amps no problem. I have some AW IMRs that will do about 3.5 amps which doesn’t seam worth the extra money.

I have a pair of TrustFire Flames Protected 16340, I have fully cycle them more than 6 times and they don’t give more than 1.6A with fresh charge! (with IMAX-B6@100mA)

So, I have extracted the protection circuit from one of them, and it is giving 1.6~1.7 amps...

Why could be this? I want those 2.7 amps for at least half a minute!

It sounds like your DMM might have some poorly made leads and you are not getting a good reading or maybe it's the light you are trying it on a poorly soldered or small spring on the back of the pill will severely limit amperage. Try taking a reading off a Manafont drop in if you have one because I am positive it's direct drive. Maybe you got fake flames were did you buy them?

Yes! I just tried with another set of cables… and it says 2.741A on high (with 8x7135 NANJG105). I can’t believe that so big difference in this little current is because of the cables.

Now I realize that, maybe, the previous stacking of 7135 I've made could be working fine at all...

Thanks Again Erik!

PS: Batteries are from DX, flames are big so they look geniune.

Awesome, I glad you figured it out.
