Hi there.
I am very new to this battery stuff.
My requirements are listed below.
I need a small usb (not mains) powered charger that will -
1. Charge 1 or 2 18650 batteries
2. Must be pass through, so I can charge via USB from bicycle dynamo and simultaneously power a low-load GPS at the same time.
3. Must be also usable as a power-bank for charging duties at the end of the day.
4. It needs also to be 18650 because I can put this batteries in my head-lamp to supplement my dynamo light.
So: 18650/Pass-through/Powerbank/Chargeable via USB.
Is anyone doing this?
I have used one of these, and it IS pass-through, but is very temperamental.
If I rotate the battery or bump it, it stops charging a connected device.

I have what I THINK is a later version of this, (Enb) in 2x18650.
Its great, but is NOT pass-through. The one in this review supposedly is.

Does anyone know where I can get something like this?
I aplogoise if this is not strictly flash-light, it is in a way, as I used your forums to help me pick the Flash-light that this device will charge!
Thanks for your time.
Cheers
Jeff
