Buzz ordering questions.

[FranC]

Buzz ordering questions. What batteries come with the Buzz and what batteries should I order for spares? Ultra fire?

If you order the kit they come with 3.7 volt 16340 batteries and they look like trustfires to me. You will need one extra set so you have one set on charge while your using one set. 16340 3.7 volt Ultra fires will work too.

What are best? All use the same charger?

I think I'm wrong because Ransyd1 said he got ultrafires with his. They both look alike. The best? I think they are about the same. I like the black trust fires the best but to tell you the truth they all perform about the same. The charger is the same for all of them.

I have a couple pairs of Ultrafire ICR123 880 mAh, 3.7 volt batteries and a couple pairs of AW ICR123 750 mAh, 3.7 volt batteries and I have to take them out and look at them to tell which ones I'm using. They work exactly the same.
16340 refers to the approximate size of the battery. They're supposed to be 16mm in diameter and 34mm in length. The protection circuitry makes them a "silly millimeter longer".

That's exactly right. I can't tell them apart except for the name. But I do get the longest time between charges out of the black with flames trust fires. My AW highdrains don't even compete but they're only 550 Mah.

What's the mAh rating on those Trustfires?

What's the mAh rating on those Trustfires?

880mah the same as the others.

Huh.

You lost me Mist.

 

[mistinthewoods]

Huh.
I just meant "oh"
the (10char) was just because you can't post with less than 10 characters.

any 16340 protected battery will work

As long as it's 3,7 volts, of course.

Good catch there, mist! See how much you are learning already? lol

I moved from a 5V GLV (which I still like a lot) to the Buzz. Can't use 3.0V batts in that either. As a mater of a fact my 3 volt Tenergys and my 18650s haven't seen a charger in quite a while.

 

[Bovinia]

Same here Mist, my 3v set is buried somewhere in my *wasted money* drawer. I do still charge my 18650 tho...still using my chuck until I get my ∞Infinity∞

Also don't forget that the batts need to be button end and not flat end
