I have a lanbo charger which came with the nitecore 18650's I bought years ago after following the advice from the "recommend a flashlight" and buying an armytek headlamp.
It seems like I probably made some mistakes storing them, but by 2017 they wouldn't hold an hour worth of charge, and that was never having depleted them or over-charging them. I threw them out and am now wondering if it was the charger's problem.
The charger doesn't say much except Lanbo, made in china, and the input and output. Pretty nondescript. I have just found my cache of CR123 but those won't last long and I'd much rather go with the rechargeable option, I really don't like disposable unless there's no choice. If this is a sketchy charger, I'd like to know, so I can replace it with quality. There's only two very brief mentions of the brand that come up in search results on the forum. Thank you.
