just thought it'll be nice for everyone to leave some feedback on batteries they've been using.
whether it be quality or budget, nimhs or li-ion, etc...

to get a better idea of how certain brands and types of cells hold up after useage.

ill start off with....

ive had my batteries for about 18 months now.

AW brand
2900mah 18650, 14500, 17670, rcr123 - all still working w/o any problems. strink wrap still in good condition as well.

Trustfire 18650 2400mah red/black label - 3 of 4 still working, strink wrap not in so good condition.
1 even has a burn mark on the negative end from using with my 2.8amp p60 drop-in.

spiderfire 16430 li-ion(yellow) - 2 out of 4 still working, the other 2 i dont use anymore cause i just dont trust them.

solarforce 16430 li-ion(white) - 2 of 4 working, only used for single cell lights.

trustfire 18650 (blue label) - 2 of 4 working. these belong to a co-worker.
