eh

2018-05-17 03:25:35 UTC  

all my batteries have been chink

2018-05-17 03:25:37 UTC  

they've been fine

2018-05-17 03:25:38 UTC  

as in

2018-05-17 03:25:39 UTC  

sony/samsung/panasonic from china

2018-05-17 03:25:53 UTC  

not like trustfire

2018-05-17 03:26:09 UTC  

I would say not worth the risk, quality cells are reasonable enough. The best cells are still single digit prices, especially if you're getting ones for that A6, you only need 1.

2018-05-17 03:27:16 UTC  

One AA? Damn

2018-05-17 03:27:31 UTC  

One 18650. What kind of batteries were you talking about, alkalines?

2018-05-17 03:27:55 UTC  

I thought it was the AA form factor, sorry

2018-05-17 03:28:11 UTC  

Is there a multi form chink charger I should get?

2018-05-17 03:28:52 UTC  

There's a ton of options, but you can get by with only $5 if you want. I forget which LiitoKala charger it is, but they're decent.

2018-05-17 03:29:18 UTC  

I'll look into lititokala then, thanks

2018-05-17 03:30:21 UTC  

Zanflare has some good ones too, sub $20 I think

2018-05-17 03:31:58 UTC  

Oh nice

2018-05-17 03:32:05 UTC  

There's all sorts of things you can concern yourself with on chargers, but basically just get something that doesn't blow up batteries, because the worst-case past that is it prematurely wears the cells out, and you gotta buy a second battery next year.

2018-05-17 03:33:46 UTC  

@bentech I hadn't even considered flipping it, pulled the trigger.

2018-05-17 03:33:52 UTC  

hahaha

2018-05-17 03:33:55 UTC  

hf

2018-05-17 03:34:02 UTC  

what did you use

2018-05-17 03:34:15 UTC  

What do you mean?

2018-05-17 03:34:29 UTC  

All right, thanks

2018-05-17 03:37:40 UTC  

Ha, I just noticed they didn't even bother silkscreening Astrolux on the battery carriers in the sample pics in the group buy thread, still says Mateminco

2018-05-17 03:42:35 UTC  

Oh, @Millwood, https://www.imrbatteries.com/sanyo-ncr18650ga-3500mah-10a-flat-top-battery/ are probably the best batteries you could get for that. A6 has low voltage protection, so you can use unprotected cells.

2018-05-17 03:52:55 UTC  

Is that a us website? I'll probably get fucked by customs ordering from us

2018-05-17 04:07:41 UTC  

Yeah, wasn't sure where you were at. But that's a good battery to go for.

2018-05-17 04:11:47 UTC  

This'll work, right? I finally found them for good price

2018-05-17 04:24:19 UTC  

Should be good

2018-05-17 04:26:08 UTC  

How does one hypothetically wholesale order from the ching chong company Indomie to buy lots of noodles

2018-05-17 04:35:44 UTC  

Don't

2018-05-17 05:03:14 UTC  

Too much of a hassle to import and you don't save much after shipping

2018-05-17 07:37:38 UTC

2018-05-17 07:41:31 UTC  

@Cole did you pay more than $50 for it

2018-05-17 07:41:48 UTC  

yes but it's Spain warehouse

2018-05-17 07:41:51 UTC  

either way
