Finally. After a long wait, Fenix should give us soon there battery-pack for the TK70. I emailed them 2 days ago, and just received this answer: "We have finished all tests for the battery, but we are testing the materials of the package. It will go into the market this month."
No idea what "testing of the package materials" means, a cardboard box shouldn't be that hard to make :p - but I'm happy it comes :)

For what I know, it will be 4* 8000mAh. Most of us, use 10.000mAh or higher batteries- so it's nice that Fenix makes this battery-pack but batts like Tenergy or Ansmann give more mAh.

I wonder about the term 'battery pack'. Sounds like it would be one solid unit or batteries stuck together so there must be a charger also then.

Too late! I've already got a charger and batts.

Unless the cost is enticing enough to pick one up of course. :whistle:

For what I know. It will be one solid (or wrapped) battery-pack with a portable-wall socket-charger. So a charger just for that battery-pack.

I've always preferred individual cells. I have 4 high-performance D nimh cells and I doubt their pack could match their run time. My Maha charger probably is more accurate than an afterthought charger. Wait & see...

I totally agree.
