Flashlight batteries

Posted by comrider1 on 20th Mar 2013

They are good batteries as far as I can tell. Rather early in the game though.
So Far So Good

I have only had them a short time, but they seem to work good so far. The only problem is that they do not seem to stay charged that long!
Bulb Popped Too

"Not sure if they are suitable for Xenon Flashlights."The above statement was taken from a review [...] I can state that they do not work well in an Xenon flashlight. I have a Cabelas light with the Xenon bulb and grew tired of buying the $10 batteries for it so I went with these rechargable batteries. I charged them, put them in and as soon as I turned the light on, the bulb blew instantly. Now if I want to keep this light, I have to pay $20 for a new bulb assembly. Love the light but I may just go back to a Maglight. I found the same batteries on availabe on another site and they list as being great for LED lights but not other bulbs. Wish I would have found that before I bought them. Probably good batteries and charger but they do not work well in non-LED flashlights. BTW, I hate LED lights. Not nearly as bright.
Too Much Power?

Posted by TommyTuff on 20th Mar 2013

I purchased these batteries to use in a xenon flashlight. Worked great right out of the package for several weeks. After charging and replacing them in Flashlight, the bulb blew instantly. After reviewing the specs on the batteries, it states they can reach a max. charge of 3.6 volts, which when combined in series could be enough to blow out a bulb. Not sure if they are suitable for Xenon Flashlights.
Batteries surge and blow light bulbs!

I have a insight M3X I've had it almost a year and decided that it was time to get a rechargeable set of batteries. I was excited and once I got them and they had charged the allotted time I put them in an pop it blew my light bulb. Since I'd had it almost a year and heavily used it I wrote it off as it's time to go. So I put the replacement bulb in and immediatly it went pop dead light. Having fully charged batteries is great unless your lightbulb wont work.

If you have the time to wait for charging, a few hours, then the rechargeable CR123A will provide you the more saving. Tenergy RCR123A is the best recahrgeable version in the market, I have been use their RCR123A for over 3 years now. Never let me down.
works great, saving alot on cost of batt
