New charger
Posted: Thu Feb 23, 2023 7:52 pm
I finally broke down and ordered a new lithium ion charger. I still can't find my other two Nitecore chargers. They are in a box somewhere in the bowels of the garage. So I bought a Nitecore D2 digital charger. Been using it all day as it's been over a year and a half since I charged up most of my lithium ion batteries. Mainly 26650, 18650 and 14500 but a few others as well.
One thing I noticed is that half of my Trustfire 26650 batteries still had charge in them, even after a year and a half or more. That's pretty impressive and gives me some confidence in them. One was completely dead but it seems to be taking a charge albeit very slow. It's been on the charger all day. But the bars are going up and it is firing up my flashlights when I tested it. Gotta give them a thumbs up.
