These are them powerizers, not recomended for use in flashlights, probably good reason too.
I did however get a bit confused here on your post, i have re-read it a couple times, have sourced outside info and i still don't get how a cell can be unprotected an protected at same time, i am assuming this would mean the cell has some protection like low/high volt cut offs, and no temperature, short or other protection installed, is this correct Newbie?
I have some Li-ions sold to me as protected, but i can not find crap on them from the manufacturer ect about thier real abilities, any suggestions bro?
Thier Hitech GN Li-Ions, sold as protected 3.6-4.25 volt batts.
I really apreciate all the hard work you have done, thanks for compiling it for us man, very nice of you to do.
peace IF
