Did I not see something on SOMEONE'S site saying that there was a 'new and improved' 10440 available now?

I LOVE my Precise, but I HATE the battery life. :cry:

Puh-leeze tell me that I wasn't mistaken...

And, one more question, if I may, but isn't there a better battery charger for these puppies than the Trustfire Multi-Charger? I HATE that thing!! I ordered a '10440 Trustfire Charger' that was supposed to be JUST for them, so they would FIT. I ordered it from DinoDirect, waited for 2 weeks for it to arrive and the %$#^$ thing is meant for UNprotected 10440's..it's just that HAIR too short!

P.S. Anyone out there that DOES use the unprotected versions is more than welcome to PM me!!

AW 10440 battery

...from Ikenvape. Only 350mAh, I doubt you'll get a higher mAh rating than that with 10440, but they are AW which are better than any of the fire series

Wow, now that is the question. A long way back, someone posted a sale and I ordered the batteries/charger. It's a place I never used before and haven't used since---went back a few times but they never restocked so just gave up.

I'm pretty sure this is the one I got.

unfortunately it's for the precise which means she needs the protected 10440 which unfortunately the AW's aren't.....unless of course superT releases the button end that he's been talking about that would allow use of unprotected 10440s....

Nope..I saw it on some suppliers website..it's just driving me nuts as to which one it WAS!

JJ, where did you get your Ultra Fires and charger from please?

Domino, the ultrafire charger for 10440 size is the WF-138B ...ikenvape has it for like $12 ...you can do a google search for the model # and find it elsewhere too...just that there's the 138A and the 138B and it's the 138B that's for the 14500 and 10440 size....though on another site they say that their protected 10440s won't fit but it's the only place I've seen that says that....so whether they fit or not....I'm not 100% on...

I think IkenVape does have new 10440s with high mah now.

they're the AW unprotecteds though..

This was the original question from the OP, which was answered at the time. The AW was the only 10440 that was the "new" kid on the block that I knew of, but please feel free to correct me if that statement in inaccurate.

Of course throwing in the battery charger sent folks for a loop :)

... which he has offered free of charge to anyone owning a Precise 10440. When one follows Domino's post they will realize that the device was purchased for the daintiness of the device, the caveat to accommodate her small hands, the 10440 battery although last twice as long as the reg 510 batts, still sucks.

lol...well I certainly dont stalk domino or the posts she makes with her tiny delicate hands....nor do I follow all the info on the 10440 precise because well as you said the 10440 sucks...

I wasn't aware if David had done any of those button updates, if she had the update for the precise or was even aware of it...

but yeah I'll agree that the AW 10440 is in the center of the pack of the new kids to the party the whole group being the 1000mAh 3.0V CR123a LiFePo4 at eastmall, the IMR batteries, the AW 10440, the IMR 14500 (currently from BDL and some other unknown companies but soon to be one from AW as well)

I was simply stating that without the updated button on the precise, she's still fated to protected 10440s which unfortunately is not the AW ones...
