Stacking AW IMR 18350s...

[PsychOfMSE]

Anyone know if stacking the orange AW IMR 18350s for 7.4 is safe?

Not worried about the actual voltage output being safe, I've got HV atties on the way, but worried about using unprotected batteries. AW IMRs are safe chemistry though, correct?

Thanks guys!

Don't know if it's safe, but it's Hot with 1.50ohm DC. I tried with 1.25ohm, but it's Hella Hot!

That is unsafe

@ OP go for it.

Thanks guys! Didn't want to have 2 batteries explode in my face and be eligible for the Darwin award!

When stacking batteries, the one closest to the load will always discharge more so than the one "on bottom." Label your batteries and flip them in your PV after every recharge cycle to help prevent one battery from wearing out faster than the other.

This is what I've done in my 3amp Thrunite Scorpion V2 flashlight with AW IMR 18350s.
Also, if you have more that two, keep them paired and use and charge them as pairs.

Thanks,
