    IMR over-discharge

    It takes a full charge to 4.2, and after 1 day was still 4.19, it says it is protected from over discharge, over charge short circuit etc, so I expect when it went off it went into "protection" mode, it has been recharged 6 or 7 times since perfectly and still beats all my other cells of that...

    IMR over-discharge

    I don't know if I am getting confused but I inadvertently left my S1 Baton on high and out of sight forgetting about it it went "flat", it showed either 0.06 or 0.6V, can't remember which put in my opus charger and not recognised as cell inserted, put in my xtar vc4 for 10 secs then in opus and...

    S1 Baton - the dog walker

    From my recent experience when I got a olight RCR123A it absolutely transformed the performance over my other 123 which include nitecore, aw etc, my 550mah RCR123 is marked 5C if that is any help. I thought my S1 BATON, not mini was junk until I tried a olight cell in it my god it was like...

    S1 Baton - the dog walker

    Hi Crazyeddiethefirst, I totally agree, though there is not much area around here for taking lights for a walk, I do love the S1 but mine is arsey about going into strobe mode it is a bit hit and miss, I was using a xtar VC4 prior to the opus, I assume these cells get weaker as they get older...

    CAR charger lead for OPUS BT-C3100 charger

    Does any one know if such a lead exists from Opus ?, I have plenty of leads but as cars are around 14-14.4 volts I fear this might damage the charger, has any one plugged one of these chargers into their car/truck etc ? I am tempted to just try it but don't want to fry it!! Any help appreciated...

    20700 charger ?

    I just measured 2 18650 cells a unprotected SENYBOR at 67.36mm and a(PANASONIC ?) NCR18650B at 70.3mm, this is minus 1 bit of newspaper used as insulator as me vernier is metal, I was under the impression a 18650 is 18mm x 65mm, so now knowing things are not what they purport to be size wise a...

    FLASHLIGHT TOOLS

    It's annoying as presumably the makers of the various brands of flashlights use tools for quickness if nothing else, would be nice to find who makes these, I have seen nearly suitable tools used for watch case back opening.

    Sourcing AW ICR123 / 16340

    I would spend a bit more for much more battery and use Olight RCR123/16340 I use the lighter greenish colored ones, they ARE protected for discharge, charge and really are light years ahead of my numerous AW of same size, I find AW lacking tbh just don't seem to have the guts whereas the olight...

    I have recently got the OPUS BT-C3100 charger, I just put a 18650 panasonic a in it, there is definitely NOT another 5mm of space left on slider to accommodate a cell of 70mm long just to let you know.
