Hello,
I am choosing between two very similarly-priced li-ion chargers (at least, on BrightNite.com.au). I have done fairly extensive research on the XTAR VC2, and a bit less on the Nitecore i2.
I will be using the charger primarily to charge this battery (Olight 18650 3.7v 2600mAh Lithium-Ion Protected). I do not need fast charging time, but I do want reliability and do not plan to buy another charger for a very long time.
I am leaning towards the XTAR VC2 because the display could be useful to me (such as roughly checking the actual capacity of the battery); is there any reason why I should consider the Nitecore i2 and sacrifice this great feature (other than charging more battery types)?
Also note the charger won't be under a high load (more occasional use).
Thanks, Hamish.
