So the battery in my Klarus G20 died. Is replacing the protection circuit viable? Or can I remove the protection circuit and use the battery as is?
Only if the light has protection built in would I recommend using an unprotected battery in it as you could overdischarge it and ruin it even if the battery is good after removing the circuitry. I could recommend testing it after removing the circuitry to see if it is good and saving it to use with something that has built in protection however. I use unprotected 18650s in plenty of things but they tend to have a lot less potential power than a 26650 can have I believe and are less (but not totally safe) dangerous to use haphazardly.So the battery in my Klarus G20 died.
