    Hardwiring P7 emitter

    I am going to be doing something similar, 4x18650 in parallel, going into a MTE SSC P7 2 mode light, using a differn't tailcap with no circuitry... this setup that they are using for P7 maglites looks good, i will probably just do that! run it at 3A...

    anyone know the FV or bin code of the ssc P7 used by MTE (2 mode)???

    Well I will be using it for MT. biking, so i think there will be enough cool airflow over the light.

    anyone know the FV or bin code of the ssc P7 used by MTE (2 mode)???

    Because i want to run a battery pack with 4 18650 in parallel. Doing such i guess the V will be higher for longer, and don't want to overdo it on the P7. Am i wrong with this?

    anyone know the FV or bin code of the ssc P7 used by MTE (2 mode)???

    This is the one, same as the one on dealextreme. then on seoul web page, the pdf "binning and labeling" on page 8 has all the different FV ratings. If it is 3.6V then that meens it can take from 3.5v to 3.75v.

    anyone know the FV or bin code of the ssc P7 used by MTE (2 mode)???

    I want to know the forward voltage of the P7 in the MTE 2 mode flashlight, i emailed MTE but never got a reply. It is in direct drive on high right? Acording to SSC the C bin is 800 lumens, but there is a huge variety of acceptible forward voltage depending on what the bin code is, going all...

    5 unprotected 18650 in parallel, help?

    yeah your right! the wf-139 only charges at 450mA So i will probably want to get a 1.5A or 3A, smart fast charger like the ones on batteryspace?

    5 unprotected 18650 in parallel, help?

    hmm, looking at the P7 specs it's typical voltage is 3.6 and max is 4.2 with a with 2800ma forward current, so I think it should be fine without anything???

    5 unprotected 18650 in parallel, help?

    cool, thanks! will this PCB be adequate for the job? for 3.7v they all say one cell only, or is that only apply to batteries in series?

    5 unprotected 18650 in parallel, help?

    I really just want to know if there is any special charging requirements and if i need a PCB for each cell or one for the whole pack? I have tried looking but can't really get a clear answer through my searches...

    5 unprotected 18650 in parallel, help?

    I have some sony laptop cells (3.7v 2000mah) I want to make a 4 cell pack at 3.7v 8ah. Do i need a PCB for each cell, or will one alone work. For charging can i use my ultrafire WF-139? I am going to make a custom 18650 dummy cell with leads that will let me plug my 4 cell pack into it....

    Fenix T1 or solarforce T7 V2?

    I am looking in getting a nice compact light to use for biking, and general use. I would like to use it on my helmet as well as on my bars. I have been on lighthound.com looking at lights. I am down to either the fenix T1 and the solarforce T7, I like the T7 because it is light, but it seems to...

    want to make external pack for P7 with 18650 in parallel from laptop batteries??

    I have a bunch of 18650 from laptops, 12 sony 3.7 v 2000 mah and 6 unkown reds at 3.6 v 2000 mah. I want to use these to make parallel battery packs that i would then connect to a dummy cell in a mte ssc p7 light. I am new to this kind of thing so i want to make sure it is done right. I...
