I currently have two 18650 batteries 3500 mAh (Eastshine) and 2600 mAh (Fenix USB). Both are protected button top batteries. I use an Eastshine battery charger. After recharging both batteries, my multimeter shows that each one measures at 4.1 volts. I have read several articles about overcharging Lithium Ion batteries. Some say the optimal voltage after a charge is 4.2 v other articles say do not exceed 4.2 volts to avoid damage. Anyone offer some guidance. Is 4.1 OK or should it be higher?
