Having restricted myself to AA eneloops for my lights because I was a bit scared of using lithium cells, I now decided to go with these stronger batteries.
Lynx_Arc explained some things and helped me decide in this thread
I have decided to buy the Fenix HM61R.
This has built in charging, which I want.
A few questions regarding batteries:
I want to buy a second battery so I can have it as a spare, just as I do now with AA batteries, have a spare in my pocket so when I am on the job I can just exchange batteries and get on with it.
The battery which comes with the light: Fenix ARB-L18-3500 18650
Or I can buy the Fenix ARB-L18-3500U 18650 battery with micro-USB-port, 3500 mAh
It occurred to me that buying the battery with the USB port will give me more flexibility because I don't have to use the light to charge this battery, am i making the right assumption, or would charging with the light be a better,safer quality?
Any advice is very welcome.
