    IR reading Miboxer C4-12 vs Zanflare C4

    I was charging 4 18650 batteries (various brands including one Nitecore) in my Miboxer C4-12 a couple of days ago. The Nitecore didn't seem to be charging very fast and was showing an IR of 999 milliohm's, the rest of the batteries were reading in the low to mid 100's. I took the Nitecore...

    Panasonic phasing out of Cylindrical Battery Business

    Just googled this and the only thing I could find about Panasonic getting out of the business were rumors posted on candle power forums.

    Miboxer C4-12

    Does anyone have the Miboxer C4-12 who could do me a small favor and take an open circuit voltage reading on any of the first 3 slots and slot number 4 and post the readings. I bought one and on the first 3 slots I get a reading of 4.94 V but on slot 4 I'm getting 4.83 volts. I sent the question...

    Long throw 18650 powered budget light.

    I love my P30, it's a great light with an excellent UI. I have a convoy C8 but don't use it. It's got a horrible corona and I can't stand the UI. I was cheaper but still not worth it.

    Why does everyone hate mag lite?

    I don't hate them, I have a couple small ones and a large 3 D cell, I just don't consider them my primary lights anymore. For me there are just better options.

    Search light for hunting: Maximum 6volts

    I'll second the Nitecore P30, it's a great light. For less money you could try the Convoy C8 but I really don't recommend it, I hate the Convoy UI.

    Review: Nitecore SC4 lithium-ion/NiMH battery charger

    I looked at this charger but I think for now I'll go with HKJ's review and leave it alone, perhaps down the road if/when they fix some of the many issues.

    Budget Searchlight?

    I've got the P30 as well and love it. Also have the Convoy C8 which is similar but I'm not a fan of the C8 UI but it is a lot cheaper. I'd go with the P30 any day, the C8, not so much.

    Curious about chargeable flashlights

    I'm asking just out of curiosity. I seem to be seeing more and more chargeable flashlights and wondering what the lure is for these types of flashlights. Personally I'd rather just swap out the battery and keep going rather than having to plug in the flashlight to charge. It makes more sense to...

    Miboxer C4-12

    Does anyone have a PDF of the manual for the Miboxer C4-12 charger they could send me, I checked the Miboxer website and they have the manual for the C4 available but don't have the C4-12 on there as yet. I need to know more about it before dropping a dime on it, also waiting for HKJ's review...

    REVIEW: Zanflare F1 Flashlight

    Just wondering if anyone knows if I can just replace the battery when needed rather than recharge it in the flashlight. Probably a stupid question but I really have no need for a flashlight that needs to be recharged. I'd much rather just replace the battery and recharge several batteries when...

    Miboxer C4 12 vs C4 Smart Charger

    Thanks, I was just coming back to update my last post, I just looked at the box in your review and saw that it said Smart Charger, so my confusion has been resolved. I'll look forward to you review of the C4-12 when it comes. Actually I have the Zanflare C4 on order, should be here tomorrow so...

    Miboxer C4 12 vs C4 Smart Charger

    Thanks HKJ, I had seen your review of the original C4, that's what made be decide not to go with it yet. Are you saying that the one they call the C4 Smart Charger is the original C4 and the C4 12 is an upgrade? If that's the case I'll wait and look forward to your review of the C4-12. Thanks...
