Hi all. I have a couple of questions regarding the batteries for our lights. Please let me know if my statements are correct, and if not, why not.
1. Given the exact same flashlight, a 3.7v 18650 lithium ion battery with a higher mAh than the same battery with a lower mAh will have the same brightness but shorter run times.
2. Given the exact same flashlight, a 3.7v RCR123 lithium ion battery will be brighter than a 3.0v lithium primary battery. Which generally has longer run times?
3. Given the exact same flashlight, (2) 3.7v RCR 123 750 mAh lithium ion batteries will be brighter than (1) 18650 2200mAh lithium ion battery, but the 18650 will have longer run times.
4. Given the exact same flashlight, (2) 3.0v lithium primary batteries will be brighter than (1) 18650 2200mAh lithium ion battery, but the 18650 will have longer run times.
5. A 3.7v 14400 lithium ion battery will have the same brightness as a 3.7v RCR123 lithium ion battery and a3.7v 18650 lithium ion battery.
Thanks in advance!
