Ok I need help. PLEASE! Specific Help...

I want to get (4) RCR123 batt's to run my chuck at 6.0v

I also want to get (2) 18650's to run at 3.7v.


So the questions are as fallows.

(1) Can I find 1 charger, that will charge both batt's. (RCR123 and 18650"s) Or do I need 2 separate chargers?

(2) The 18650 comes in a 2400mah (Button Top) and then it comes in a 2600mah (Flat top) - So, Will the higher mah "flat top" cell work for the chuck? and secondly, is there an 18650 battery that I can get that has even a higher mah than 2600mah for the chuck?

(3) Same for the RCR123's, is there a higher mah RCR123, higher than 900mah?

I was looking at BatteryJunction.com Batteries, Battery Chargers, Flashlights, Solar Products & more!. But please, post up a LINK to find the specific batts & Charger(s) your are talking about in your answers to my questions.

Thank you SO much

1) You need two chargers. 18650's are 3.7 volt and CR 123's are 3.0 volt

2) Button top or flat top will work in the Chuck. I have flat top ones and they work just fine. There is a 3000 mah Ultrafire battery, but honestly, you won't notice a huge difference.

3) I believe 900 mah is as high as it gets for CR123's

This is what I use.

CR123's and Charger: LifePO4 CR123's

18650: Tenergy 18650

Charger for 18650's: Ultrafire WF-139

I agree with mr sinister although I do prefer button top batteries.

I'm using CR123's button top of course, but all I know is that the 1 or 2 chargers you can buy that can do both batteries and voltages are expensive and extremely hard to use(the springs are elongated to fit the smaller cr123's so its AWFULLY hard to use and even look at.) The 900mah CR123's last me ALL day. I have 8 of them and 2 chargers and as a rule I use 2 batts at work and when I get home from work I switch em out and use another 2 batts, then in the morning I'll take the 2 batts I used at work the day before and the used batts I have in the chuck and switch em out with the 4 batts in the chargers. I have NEVER had any batteries go dead on me yet. :D
