Thanks, SYZYGY, sounds good !
I dont think such exist, I had searched myself a while ago.
The table I have in mind is much simpler: merely a suggestion of a list of basic settings suitable for commenly used batteries.
Happy to act as beta-tester ! :)
Very good choice !
The SC4 can charge with 4x 1.5A which is good & usefull. There are not many chargers which are this powerfull.
With 4 cells, the D4 is limited to 375mA, so AA cells take quite long to charge and I'm not sure if dV always works with so low charge current - although according...
Nice charger !
There are indeed only a very few charger (these days) into which 4 C-cells fit.
If you are still looking for such, one other is the PALO C906W.
According to lygte-info.dk this is a fairly decent charger.
It seems still available in aliexpress.
Hi, I am fully with you. I hesitate to put the rather pricey eneloops into my cordless phones and see them "grilled" by those mostly dreadfull chargers ...
I would assume the eneloop lite would have a longer life - with the sacrifice that the speaking-time is shorter (than with regular...
Hello & happy New Year !
As I increasignly happend to have 5 or 6 cells to charge and was too lazy to charge them in two batches in my 4-bay chargers I recently bought the new SkyRC NC2500 Pro. (Which is quite different from the - discontinued - NC2500 non-Pro !)
Overall it works ok, but I am...
Yes, same for me ...
The older the batteries, the higher the iR, the wamer they get during charge, leading to dV kicking in and cancelling the charge.
Maybe try lowering the charge current - of course be carefull, as this can lead to overcharge when using dV for stopping the charge.
Maybe...
Basically, you need one program for each chemistry and capacity, so three in your case.
I usually only set the charge current to around 0.5 x capacity (for both NiMH and LiIon).
I dont even set the CAPACITY and CUT TIME, but of course they are additional safety features - especially if the...
Indeed, 90 lumens is a bit too much for normal use for extended periods.
Talking about time: is the runtime really only 1 hr 50 mins in low ? That seems short, compared to XP-G lights with "high" and similar runtimes.
And, also, 6000K is a bit too cold for me, I would prefer a warmer tint.
Great review, as always, thank you very much !
Only detail I'm missing is reverse polarity protection (for AA), can anybody comment ? The foursevens homepage is not really clear in this neither.
Apparently, this is also sold as:
MacTronic CAMP PRO MINI LT-185AA
XGlow XC-1001.
LiteXpress 103 (This might be XP-C Version though, as the homepage states only 141lm. -> http://www.litexpress.com/en/lanterns/camp/camp-103/ Some shops state 185lm though.)
(All found in Germany.)
I ordered...
Hi Jerry,
a Cree Q5 flux LED has 107-114 lm @ 350 mA. With the quoted working current of max 600mA (which sounds reasonable) you will not get more than 170 emitter lumen. Thus, there is no realistic chance of 310 lumen.
With an AA battery you will very likely get even less lumen, given that...
