Hi , I've today ordered an Olight SR52UTvn and Vinh recommends unprotected cells for the torch as it gives max output .
What safety concerns should i have if i get unprotected cells ?
I have a stock SR52 already with protected cells and i generally do a top up charge after every time i use it so it's fully charged each time i take it out ( i did fully discharge the cells 3 times at first to condition them though ) , i probably use it 3 or 4 times a week for about 45 minutes to an hour and never more than an hour at a time.
I charge them inside the torch using a usb charger so never have to take them out really.
Would i have to do anything different with unprotected cells ?
If i stick with protected cells what sort of percentage power output am i losing compared to unprotected ? Is it a significant difference or not enough to worry about ?
Sorry guys one last question , on my usage of a few hours a week how long can i expect my existing olight 3400mah 3.6v protected cells to last ? I've had them around 3 months now.
Any help and advice much appreciated .
I'm getting there slowly but surely .
