jetbeam i2 pro and eagletac 18650 issue

[mihail]

I have the charger in the title and till now it was ok. This morning I put an EagleTac 18650 (3400mAh) in it to charge it. Nothing happened. The LEDs that were supposed to lit up did nothing. It was as if the channel were empty. I changed the channel ... same result. I checked the battery and it was 3.3V. I don't have any 18650 flashlight to try the battery.
The charger do charge NiMH and 14500 with no problem.
I don't know much about chargers and the way they work, so please help me with this issue.


Later edit:
The battery works fine although the voltage is too low. I have tried it with a 2.4V bulb and lit it up. So, my charger is broken?

I have just received the new charger and same issue. It does not charge my Eagletac 18650. It seems that the battery has a problem but I know too little about this stuff in order to understand it. Can anybody help me?

So it's not the charger, or the light(s,) so send the ET cell back for a replacement.

When everything else worked with the cell, that should have been the first clue.

I had an Orbtronic/Soshine 16340 that lasted a month, or two, but it wasn't worth the postage.

Stuff breaks, even well engineered stuff.
