Acebeam X45 review with measurements (4x XHP70, 4x 18650)

[stollman]

Batteries....I wonder if one of these would work? How many amps are the Acebeam batteries for this light?

Get high current cells such as Sony VTC6, VTC5A or Samsung 30Q for the X45. Neither of those you listed is very good. You can compare batteries with HKJ's comparator. Higher voltage at high currents means lower internal resistance -> better suited for the X45.

Here's a good deal on the VTC6:

But the X45 batteries are in in serie. Should that not required protected cells?

Just bought a X45 70.2 version, want some spares batteries and I am confused as hell.
Help!

Depends on the level of risk you're willing to take. If you use batteries bought together and used together and never running them flat, running them in series is fine. Just take care of them and periodically check their health.

Thanks! Let's say I buy the protected Q30 I linked, how would they compare to the included Acebeams ones?
