BP batteries

[thughes]

Hey I have a question about batteries. Will these work? http://www.electronicstix.com/MOD-B...ODS/LIFEPO4-CR123A-500mAh-3-0V-Pair-p322.html I have these sitting aside from my last mod and haven't been used in awhile. Figured i'd ask before I throw them in and give them a go lol. Thanks in advance to everyone!

is the size correct? these are only 3.0v and my powerizers are 3.6 so this may make a difference.....

If you have not tried the powerizers from notcig you should they have been the best bats I have had for my buzz's!
Hopefully someone that knows more about the bats you have will come along soon to help.

Yeah I have the powerizers and love them. I was just wondering if I could use these as back ups to my back ups lol. Never can be to prepared.

They will work for a while , try them and let us know how they do !
the MAX output voltage will be limited some by the 3.0 volts / cell

In fact put them in there and tell me what the max voltage output is ( under load if possible )

Thanks buzz! Ill give it a shot next week. I'm out of town doing the family thing right now. I just wanted to make sure I wouldn't hurt the buzz in any way lol. Thanks again!

That is an interesting question, I would be curious to see the results also.

I wouldn't think Max voltage under load would change, when the batteries were fresh and as long as the LifePos are capable of providing enough current to the regulator. But Max voltage will start to drop after a little use and then the LifePos will probably drop below the minimum Voltage required to turn on the regulator pretty quickly.

I had some of them, they didn't last long 5-6 hours. They quit charging shortly after I started using them in the BP.

The Powerizers are lasting me 15-20 hours.

I usually slap in fresh batts in the morning, but decided to find out how long til they die. Yesterday 9am-midnight, same set this morning up to 4pm - then a couple weak hits and purple light.

Sigworthy device imo.
