Thank you very much, Drozd. Can I "assume" (I hate that word...lol) that the high drain will deplete faster than the Li-Ion?
I'm so full of questions today..... I appreciate your help......horton
it really depends on battery size and which atty you're using...
I will say that a 14500 high drain at 600mAh and a 14500 ultrafire Li-Ion 900mAh...actually deplete in about the same amount of time...
the reason being is that because the high drain actually has the ability to power the atty without the voltage sag that the regular Li-Ion gets
I for example take shorter hits with the high drain to get the same satisfaction... like 3 seconds compared to 5 seconds..
Drozd how do LiFePO4
batteries compare to LiIon's in terms of discharge rate?
depends on the LiFePo4 really...
the tenergy LiFePo4 3V for example have a max drain rate of <550mA
where the AW ones have a max drain rate of like 5A
my general rule as far as
batteries go is:
any 18650 size
14500 ... the AW 14500 LiMN
16340 ... the 3V AW LiFePo4 stacked for 6V, or the AW 16340 LiMN for single applications or stacked for 7.4V+
