I did a very rudimentary test on the weekend testing out the capacity of my 18650 cells and the waterproofness of my T10L.
The ingredients were:
- EagleTac T10L
- Soshine 2800mAh
- Ultrafire 2600mAh (the "pink/red' set, but the more expensive version)
- TrustFire 2400mAh "red and black" set
- A bucket of water
According to EagleTac, the T10L is supposed to do 2 hours in high mode. So my goal was to see if I can keep the light powered on high for 2 hours.
So I turned the light on and dropped it in a bucket of water and the results are as follows:
Code:
Battery | Starting Voltage | Duration
---------------------------------------------------
Soshine | 4.09v | 1 hour 55 mins
Ultrafire | 4.13v | 1 hour 51 mins
TrustFire | 4.12v | 1 hour 59 mins
As a side note, once the light turned off, I checked their voltages. Both the Soshine and Ultrafire cells had a 0v reading, whereas TrustFire had 3.29v and 3.36v after 30 minutes of rest. The Soshine and Ultrafire cells both were able to be charged full again, with what seems, to be no ill affects.
