Jeeze… we both know that is a total crock. You live your entire life here adding tons of frivolous speculation, so you should be the very first to point out the BS. :student: We have been bypassing springs and employing spring loaded pillars for several years to transfer far higher current. And try telling such ridiculous nonsense to tens of thousands of of vape heads. :person_facepalming: Nitecore is obviously pushing a proprietary package that most people will toss after the cell craps out. Plus, Im sure that everyone knows a single cell pushed to such extremes wont have very many cycles before it weakens. YMMV, but nothing new or miraculous there either…
As already mentioned, Im still trying to figure out what pushed them to even consider making such a terrible conundrum. The light is interesting, unique and likeable… except for that non-removable cell. I have noted that very little is mentioned in the few reviews of this light (or its family) concerning the non-removable cell they try to stick us with. SO in light of the fabulous and detailed reviews (which tells all in great details), very little is mentioned about a NON-REMOVABLE CELL. I have decided to bring this one huge blunder to the forefront of discussion (AGAIN) so we can figure out what really happened. So lets be redundant and mention this a few more times, shall we? This will also alert others that this is in fact, a flashlight that the user can not swap a cell for a nice fresh one. Reminds me of the idiot Toyota commercials, where they weld the hood closed on a new yota because its supposedly so reliable that we will never have to lift the hood during the entire life of the car! So we just throw the entire car away when the battery dies in a few years… nice! This light must be the Chinese anecdote to be played out upon the uninformed and unsuspecting. Sorry Mr. Nitecore, but Im not laughing and Im definitely not buying to fill our landfills. We already have large enough problems recycling all the cheap Chinese smartphones that quickly fail.
I think its past time for an intelligent, HONEST, English speaking FACTORY NITECORE REP to step in and tell us the real story behind this light. And please, no more silly lies about not being able to conduct the same amount of current through a swap-able cell… because you’re all just to dumb to figure out that a regular spring wont suffice and you cant figure out how to employ one of the many other solutions already in use in high current flashlights today. Sheesh! Thats actually pretty darn funny… and pathetic, all at the same time! 
I suppose if they so foolishly lied about the spring vs welding solution, they’ll certainly lie about anything and everything else they can think of. We’ve sure seen it thousands of times on this forum alone. Must be a way of life for far too many to admit their horrendous blunders. Cough… Acebeam…. COUGH!!! COUGH!!! :confounded: :confounded: Of course there are many others.
ONWARD!!!
I was asked to take a look at these lights and acquire a sample for a client who held a purchase order in hand for 100-150 units, holsters, water proof cases, chargers and four times as many cells to power each. T’aint ganna happen now! No misaligned Chinglish double talk here, Ho Chi! We NOOOOOOOO buy from you now! YOU UNDERSTAND?? THANK YOU! Funny thing from a guy with a PhD + BA EET and several other credentials, that he didnt catch the small detail that THE CELL IS NON REMOVABLE during his research and reading the reviews. At first glance, I almost didn’t catch it either. I really should do the world a service and copy/pate this entire post across all reviews online so others will catch that “little” missing flaw that they dont want us to know about. :+1:
Cheers!!!
