my power is out again.

some dimwit hit the pole again, (6th time in 2 years) same pole over and over and over, so frustrating
I have a generator but not optimal for the buisness side of things.

Just so anyone who's place an order knows there might be a delay.

Lol they might want to move that pole some where else.

Eric do the Panasonic CGR 18650 batteries you sell fit in the Gripper?

I will have to report on this tomorrow, I cannot see, no power just generator and it's not in an easy place to go looking.
I would guess no because it's longer than a standard 18650 and I remember the AW just fitting. But I will confirm when I can.

(I do not have a transfer switched hooked up yet, electrician want's a thousand bucks...)

Knowing Eric he's packing orders with one of those finger lights and will still have them out by morning

I have CGR18650CH batteries, and they fit fine. Great batteries too. So, if Eric sells the same ones, then yes.

 

[me1969]

never mind they look the same as i have but can't tell

He lists them as being protected and it says they are longer than the Pannys from Orbtronics and they are a tight fit in the Gripper so they are probably too long for the Gripper.

I just checked, and the only difference between Eric's and the ones I have, are that his are button top. I will bet that they will fit fine. Eric can verify in the morning. And yes, Panasonic claims to have a protection circuit in the CGR18650CH batteries.

sorry to say that my panasonic will not fit the gripper, it is a hair too long. Though this carries the same model number it's a bit different. Not entirely sure what is up I bought the model number requested by customers. I figured it would fit but it does not... just by a hair

Wow. I lost that bet. Is the button top really that big?

Oh, I checked. It's 3.5mm longer than mine. That's really strange. The numbers on your battery picture match to mine.

 

[Tully Mars]

My CGR18650CH fits perfect in my Gripper VV. However the battery does not say Panasonic on it. Maybe the little number is different on Eric's, Li-ion MH12210. The site I ordered them from said they were Panasonic. All I did was a search for them and these guys came up. I got A LOT of batteries from them and not a problem with any of them. Of course I know more about the Martian landscape now than I do about batteries.
ps: they are button top but the button is a bit recessed.

I sure wish the industry would standardize this S--- (stuff). Would make it a lot easier...

mine is protected, could that be it?

So what is the highest mah one on your site that will fit the Gripper?

There is two kinds flat and button top flats fit gripper.

 

[GoAskAl]

You know what would be really helpful is to put links from your mods to the batteries that fit. This would help us know whch batteries to choose and I woulld think that it would also increase sales I think it would be a win win.

 

[txtumbleweed]

Yes, I think that is the difference. I have button and flat top Panasonic CGR18650's that are unprotected and they both fit the Gripper. The protection circuit adds length.
