I felt a little colorful toni…um… this morning. If any of these strike your fancy, they are ready to pack and ship. Post or PM me a about which ones you’d like.

I have wraps ready for most color and tagline combinations. Let me know if you want something specific.

amishbill,
I’ll take a set. White “Let There Be Light” wraps, silicone cases any color.
thank you

Everyone that has ordered recently should have their packages on or before Friday.

The colored sets above should still be available, but I need to double check what’s left in white.

I never asked are these protected cells?

No - they are not.

As long as you get them all installed + side up, the built in protections on the lantern’s driver will take care of the rest.

Very good.The tops on these are fine. I’d written Sofirn asking about button tops/protection, their reply:

My friend, sorry for the late reply due to the weekend. LT1 lantern use Button Top battery. It can use protected and unprotected battery. The lantern will be more brighter with unprotected batteries than protected batteries.

Sending a pm for a set.

Please note that the NCR18650GA batteries I have chosen to use are somewhat of an exception to the Button Top Only rule. While technically they have flat tops, this particular model uses a flat top that extends ‘just a little’ past the insulation wrap like a button top does. That makes this battery compatible with spin-top lights like the SP36, Q8, etc. If a light uses a non-conductive collar around the positive contact as its means of Reverse Polarity Protection, well, I have no way of saying if this one will work or not, as the positive contact is wide and not all that tall.

Yes I knew the tops were OK. Sorry if I brought that into question.
What you are doing is a Good Deal, They’d cost 30.00 anywhere

Friendlyfodder · 2019-10-21T21:50:14.000Z

Got mine quick and they look great!

PKT · 2019-10-24T16:53:07.000Z

Got mine, Great idea, the wraps are awesome. Oh and the silicone cases, I’ve never used them before,
I like. Thanks for all your trouble.

amishbill · 2019-10-24T16:58:13.000Z

Thanks for the positive reviews.

To those who are waiting for me to ship - sorry for the delays. I’ve had a few sets ready, but when I double checked I found flaws that require re-wraps. Creased/crimped paper here, a rip there…

I’m as eager for you to have them as you are to get them (and the LT1 to put them in!) - - but I also want them to be as good as you’re expecting.

Yourrid · 2019-10-27T00:36:00.000Z

Just got mine in the mail. Super quick, awesome packaging and fantastic product!

AmishBill, I think you need to start up a battery business on the side man! I’d be curious to know what kind of prices you can get Samsung 30Q’s at

I like the way you think, but I’m pretty sure this is a one-time opportunity for me.

but… I wonder what price I could get if I asked for 500 or 1000 of the GAs… Hmmm… :innocent:
