Hey Shek, have you decided if you were going to order batteries or not? I've been reading a lot on people's devices exploding and causing injury, I don't want to risk using something with those possibilities, I'd be interested if you're going to go with something of high quality.

Count me in for one.

If you've found a thread showing where an LT has failed and shorted out a battery that has exploded, post it!!

And I've stated this fact before, in this thread. If you abuse ANY lithium battery (IMR, ICR, IFR, LiPO, whatever) and you don't handle them with care, it WILL fail!

So my best advise is to educate yourself on battery safety and DON'T do stupid freakin' things with your devises, like put them in your pocket with an atomizer or cartomizer attached to it and a battery inside of it, cuz you're just asking for trouble.

Batteries fail and cause injury because stupid people do stupid things with their devises and like to put the blame on their battery. It ain't the battery....it's the user!

I've been running my Wife's lavatube with a 5 volt NiHi battery since Christmas, and I think personally, it lasts longer. And all of her body parts are still attached.

When Vendors claim that only use protected high drain batteries, is just another greedy marketing scam IMO.

Think you mean IMR high drain batteries, which don't have a protection circuit.

And yes, I agree...there are other SAFE options, including the 4.8V NiMH stacked cells!

Do the stacked cells have a protection circuit? Because I dont see a strip..

The NiMh batteries don't need protection circuits and are actually SAFER than an IMR battery!

Thanks for that info..They do work fantastic in the lavatube.

The mini Lava will have an extension to allow you to use the 18650 batteries. Have a look at post number 938.

i have a white tenegy multi charger I believe it is, does my 14500 batteries, do I need a new charger for these batteries or will that work fine?

Is this what you have?

All-Battery.com: Tenergy Multifunctional Charger for Li-Ion Cylindrical Rechargeable Batteries (14500, 18500, 18650)

If it is, it's the same charger as this one:

TrustFire TR-001 Multi-Purpose Lithium Battery Charger - Free Shipping - DealExtreme

Both are excellent chargers.

 

[robl45]

yes, thats the one, so I wouldn't need a charger then.

Which battery is a 4.8 & when stacked what does it put out?
Could 2 of these replace an 18650?
Will it last as long as a High Drain?

Works for me, if it's $30, I'm well willing to spend that for a backup PV either way
