welcome to the forum! To answer your question it all depends on how often you use the light. The electronic switch at the head of the MH27 drains power out of the cell inside the light steadily and at a high rate when the light is not on. If you use the light daily leaving the cell inside the light is fine. If you do not use the light daily where the light just gets put on a shelf for a few days the electronic switch drains the cell fast so in that case remove the cell until you need to use the light again......
MH27 is a great light though it has true high output, amazing range and just about every extra feature a light could have and it sells for a fair price. I hope you have a quality charger to use because using the built in micro USB charging system takes twice as long to recharge the cell.
Thanks for welcome and you extensive reply, very nice!! In fact, I bought also a Nitecore D2 charger.
Regarding battery charge, I have two more doubts. First, can I recharge the battery every time after a moderate use, just to maintain the cell 100% full, or should I wait until drain completely the battery for, only then, recharge it?
Second, can I use a Powerbank to recharge the battery through USB port, or yet, a charger like a iPhone charger?
And about the suggestion from of friend
hiuintahs in the topic below, to "
just untwist the head a small amount which disconnects the battery electrically and that way you don't have to remove the battery", this works?
Thanks agains and best regards!!
