Best 18350 Charger? Acts as a backup portable charger?

Hey all,

I found an amazing Thrunite charger for my 18650 cells that acts as a backup portable charger which I love.

But I can't seem to find anything similar for my 18350 cells. Is there any that exist and possibly act as a backup portable charger? Maybe it holds two 18350 cells? I've searched high and low (google and on here) but haven't found anything.

Thank you!

If your charger can do a 500mA rate, it should be fine for 18350s, at least on the 'charging' end of things.

I wouldn't use 18350s for power bank functions, but that's just me.

For charging my 18350s, I like my USB Xtar XP-1 Hummingbird chargers, but they only do li-ion/NiMH 14500s and smaller, at 250mA and 500mA rates and they aren't power bank capable.

The Littokala Lii 100s and 202s are also USB chargers, do 500mA and 1A rates, are multi-chemistry/voltage and power bank capable, for not a lot of cash.

I have two of each and they work fine.

Thank you Chris!!!

I meant to say that I 'wouldn't' use the 18350s for power bank functions, unless I had to just because of their lower capacities, even the 1100mAh Aspire type hobbies, but in a pinch, they can obviously be used.

Sorry for the confusion.
