yeah

2017-12-05 22:35:40 UTC  

@Cole So you say the Convoy S2+ CAN accept the button-top batteries? It's just that the battery store guy's one was probably dead?

2017-12-05 22:35:56 UTC  

shopping on ebay for this stuff is just asking to be double chinked

2017-12-05 22:40:48 UTC  

@Matthew either that or it was crap

2017-12-05 22:41:11 UTC  

I tested my Samsung 30Q button top in the regular convoy S2+, same one you have

2017-12-05 22:41:16 UTC  

worked

2017-12-05 22:44:23 UTC  

just buy batteries from GearBest, banggood or fasttech

2017-12-05 22:44:28 UTC  

all good resources

2017-12-05 22:44:37 UTC  

with original batteries

2017-12-05 22:44:43 UTC  

Do you think this charger will work for the one battery I have now?

2017-12-05 22:45:01 UTC  

eh, never heard of the brand

2017-12-05 22:45:09 UTC  

What do you use?

2017-12-05 22:46:26 UTC  

get this

2017-12-05 22:47:26 UTC  

I had this one at first

2017-12-05 22:47:57 UTC  

you can also charge rechargeable AA/AAA batteries in this and Nitecore is a good brand

2017-12-05 22:48:18 UTC  

right now I use a Nitecore i8, but that's a monster that most people don't need

2017-12-05 22:48:26 UTC  

8 bay charger..

2017-12-05 22:49:27 UTC  

I'm gonna buy a LiitoKala Lii-500 eventually though, that's also on Amazon

2017-12-05 22:49:47 UTC  

that one is great because it can test batteries for you, too

2017-12-05 22:50:12 UTC  

but more expensive than a Nitecore D2

2017-12-05 22:52:02 UTC  

aight, thanks

2017-12-05 22:52:56 UTC  

I bought a cheapo 1-slot charger from LittoKala for just this one cell that I know works, then I'll get better samsung cells and a 2-slot charger once I get my christmas bonus

2017-12-05 22:53:53 UTC  

LiitoKala is a great brand in general

2017-12-05 22:55:32 UTC  

Sweet, althou

2017-12-05 22:55:57 UTC  

>tfw startup costs for this flashlight are approaching the cost of just buying an Olight

2017-12-05 23:00:45 UTC  

but Olight batteries are proprietary afaik, can only be used in other Olights

2017-12-05 23:01:07 UTC  

here you're set to use them in whatever other light you may buy in the future

2017-12-05 23:01:16 UTC  

or the Gongtian meme fan

2017-12-05 23:06:09 UTC  

fair enough

2017-12-05 23:10:39 UTC  

What are good rechargeable AA batteries?

2017-12-05 23:11:07 UTC  

last time i heard eneloops were the goto for good cheap AA

2017-12-05 23:11:17 UTC  

but that was like 3 years ago

2017-12-05 23:11:22 UTC  

or maybe that was AAA

2017-12-05 23:11:25 UTC  

:thnik

2017-12-05 23:18:44 UTC  

is mass drop worth the hassle?

2017-12-05 23:19:03 UTC  

or is it just marked up shit being sold at a "dicsount"

2017-12-05 23:19:25 UTC  

That one

2017-12-05 23:20:22 UTC  

very suck, much meme, wow <:hahayes:330459104495665153>

2017-12-05 23:22:19 UTC  

there are some good deals like in some of their collaborations but if you dont live in Freedomland then most likely you'll have to pay for shipping and that will close the gap between buying it from china and buying it from massdrop
