Aw 145000 and Pila charger

[bullpup]

I just finaly bought the 14500 protected batteries from AW to upgrade from my ultrafires. I would also like to get a better charger now. I apoligize if this is stupid but my current WF139 (8?) has a spring battery holder so different size battreries could fit. Will the Pila IBC fit the 14500 or do a need an adaptor for this size.?

thank you

Bullpup, the Pila charger terminals are for 65mm / 2-1/2 inch cells only. You could make a conductive spacer to put in and get by. Yhe Pila puts 0ut 600 mA which is just about at the 1 C limit on this size cell. The WF-139 puts out 450 mA and I happily use it for my 14500 cells rather than the Pila.

The length should be ok with the supplied spacers. What is the mah rating of the 14500?

My Pila IBC came with spacers. Shouldn't be a problem.

AW's protected 14500 are 750 mAH

Pila charges up my Trustfire 14500 just fine with the included screw-in spacer.

I also was interested in the Pila charger. I take it AW 14670 cells will not fit this charger?

My AW 17670 fits in the Pila, so don't see why a 14670 wouldn't?

They fit OK.

When I saw that thread title I said, "Whew, that's a BIG battery!"

They fit OK.
