Be sure to follow the rule before you head out.
Rule: You must post before you leave.
Battery safety?
You can't just drop a term like that and not explain. Have I been using batteries in an unsafe manner this whole time?
Batteries are rated for a certain continuous current draw, and if you try drawing too much, you're going to have a bad time. Some of these flashlights can draw a ridiculous amount of power, and if you're putting a cheap knockoff 18650 in it with no internal protections, it's not going to be a fun time.
It's the same issue people had with vapes exploding. The original included batteries might only be rated for a continuous draw of say, 10A, and they're adding these crazy high wattage coils trying to get 30A from them.
Yeah but charging is even more dangerous. These lights dont have built in chargers so you need to charge the batteries yourself.
Have you been licking 9 volts?
Like you haven't.
Everyone knows you shouldn’t lick more than 8
