    18650 Cell Phone Charger

    well, in this case I could cut a usb extension cord in the middle and solder the part with the female usb adaptor to the 5.5mm adaptor so that the cable will hang out of the box.

    18650 Cell Phone Charger

    yes, i know but normal is not just a specific temperature. it's a range may be 30 to 70 is normal and above 65 is dangerous. may be 30 to 45 is normal and above 50 is dangerous so I have to worry.

    18650 Cell Phone Charger

    Re: Mobile USB power Naguz, Monocrom, HKJ thank you for the information. I think the smell was because it is new. and maybe it was not hot but just warm. By the way there is a jumper inside which I have read in this thread is to adjust the amperage. Do you know the adjustments?

I have swapped the led with an XML-T6 which is around 850-950 Lumens the problem is that the previous LED has a driver which makes the XML-T6 not work at full power (it's not bright enough) What can I do to make...
