Wow... Just 1 night without visiting LYN,

Now so many jetbeam fans already! haha... Everything is jetbeam..

Haha, now got more jetbeam poison recommendation liao. I think everyone shud have at least a single AA light? It is easier to find batteries and cheap. If there was an emergency and your Li-ION run out, can use any cell and run on low mode at least, dont have to worry abt matching cells even.

The M1X is ex-stock right, so shud be v2 or v3.. just give 50% discount and I'll take it! yeah right.

strinq, good catch... I think it's indeed a tail twisty... the English version doesn't clearly state it, but the Chinese version does... Fenix PD10 (Chinese) or direct link to LD10 picture
Tail Twisty with Springy feel... that's a first.

damon: it's a tail switch, pretty sure.

Still think it's not a good idea but it's a personal opinion. You simply cannot twist with one hand easily.

Haha, no hurry on the AA light but the Jet I pro does seem really good. But i think i'll be patient and wait for the newer warm tint XP-G's.

I... admire ur perseverance...



Btw, 4Sevens has 3 annoucements left! The long awaited Maelstrom is in one of the releases + a SST-50/90 light! The 3rd release could probably be an accessory

Patient? <- There's no such word in the flasholics vocab. You s ure you can resist the Jet I?

hi....hi....hi.....

Guys,

yesterday I just ask my IT department do they happen to have a notebook battery that are not use anymore. Guest what, I'm very lucky, there's one lying around (Compaq). Managed to dismantled it and it contain 8 pcs of 18650. Average reading are 2.2v per cell but there's 2 pcs that read below 2v. so far 4 pcs already been recharged and no 5 & 6 are still in the charger (ultrafire wf-139 charger). It register 4.2v once the charger light goes green. It seem that battery that are below 2v failed to recharge. any advice on this. thank you

Normal charger will not charge any battery below certain voltage. Since it is below 2V, it still can be brought into life, haha using voodoo black magic.

Here you go:
The Susuman Voodoo
Get a power source, preferable 5V, usually a handphone charger is 5.2V, get a cheap cheap one, or any power source you can get. I have , if you need, but I live in Seri Kembangan.


You just need to connect the + to the + of the battery, then the - to the - of the battery, on the power for short while (say 10-20 seconds), the battery will be reborn , it will have at least 3V, then you can charge it using normal charger. Remember not to voodoo it for too long, if cannot reach 3V++, then voodoo again, but just keep it short.

And you will surprise the battery can perform very well using LED.
Good luck!

ps: Using some charger may cause the 18650 to heat up when u charger a cell that revived from Voodoo, so try to monitor it. My trust fire charger does cause the temperature to rise, but I have another LiPo charger (GT Power V5), temperature kept cool when charge, and I am using 1A to charge it.

Hey susuman, can use 5x 1.2NiMH in series for the 10 sec voodoo power?

that are some Emoli cell that you have,they are very powerful and robust but the resting voltage is already at 2V,too bad if there are resting at 2.5v i'm sure it will kick some ass

OK Ladies... I've updated a section in MY CPF for our LYN Flashlight Discussion.

In there, I've included past discussions as well. If you have ideas, contacts, resources, wishes, information, fried-chicken and hot dogs, please post it in there

Oh, can, actually 4 x 1.2 (4.8V) is ok liao.

But in case the 18650 already 0V, the are total dead. I don't think can Voodoo it back, anymore.

Walau, got knife some more ar.. I will also take some with knives too. With kitchen knife can are?

Charge them as usual, then leave them for 24 hours. Throw away those whose voltage drops below 4V.
