Can one use crocodile clips and spacers to charge cells from a programmable Li-Ion RC car/plane charger? I have too many chargers and would love to turn them all into one charger!!!

 

[Rainy]

Vinyl, I very much appreciate you sharing this information. I was all set to buy the charger above but when it came time to pay for it and I saw the total was $35.43 I changed my mind.

Hopefully there is something more affordable and still good quality. Thanks Rainy

Thanks so much Vinyl, I got it. Only 2.92 s&h, 2-5 days delivery, total $12.91. Why is it that RCR is sometimes used and other times it is CR? I'm assuming they are the same. Little things can be very confusing to one that doesn't know.

I've been waiting on ordering CR123A batteries because you have been researching this for higher mAhs I believe. From your post you seemed to be estatic over the 3000 mAh on the 18650, that's why I ordered it. I will have those batteries just in case, although I really plan on vaping 6 volts or higher. he,he,he Thanks again,

Im not sure what the cr and rcr mean rainy I have some that say lir lc rcr Im sure someone in here is more knowledgeable than I am with battery`s . the higher the Mah is the longer the battery will last.and it is hard to go to 3.7 after trying the 6v but I am at almost 6 hours of heavy vaping with the new 18650 @ 3000 Mah

The fact that you don't seem concerned about the cr, rcr, etc. is assurance enough for me....not to worry. he,he

Oh 6 hours is very good Viny. I'd think you would have to take a few 6v puffs now and again. But that is wonderful to hear, I'm sure the 3.7 volt people are thrilled.

What is the highest mAh that you have found so far for the CR123As? Am I correct that the volts on those are 2 x 3.7 = 7.4 volts total and that is the highest voltage we can get for the GGT? If that is so, the only thing you are still researching at this point, is the mAh?

up to 10 hours with the 18650 3000mah,and iv`e been burning it up lol it`s hard to get the 6v hit from a 3.7 battery lol just cant do it,Iv`e been using it with an 801 and holding the button down for 10 or 15 seconds and hot boxing it trying to run it down,so far it`s holding up good,I charged up 2 of the others and at a full charge they are showing almost 4.2v the one I started with was at 3.7 and after 10 hours it is reading 3.6 so I think anyone who likes the 3.7 setup will like these.
the highest mah on a 3.7 that I have used is 1000,the 3.7 is not for the GG rainy,not unless Imeo makes the new atomizers,you should be using two 3v batteries
the 3v ones im using are 17335 1000 mah they dont have a 123 or cr just li-ion 17335
Iv`e heard most of the mah ratings are bs anyways lol but still want the highest I can find.

Hi Vinyl,

You've run an excellent test for everyone. Ten hours is fabulous for 3.7v. It seems like you have located a fabulous battery to go from 3.7v to 3.6v after 10 hours.

Yes, I was aware that I can't go to the higher voltage until I get the Imeoatty. At this time I am using UltraFire, 800 mHa, 2 x 3v = 6volts. I purchased these from Tim so they should be ok.

If for any reason I don't go to the higher voltage later, I will buy the ones you are using after I use up those that I have. The 1000 mAh is better than 800. he,he Thanks for the instructions and all of your efforts. It is very much appreciated.

Rainy
