Pros: Has protection circuit board.
The capacity is fair. Even more than advertised.
Cons: The length... Since they have the protection boart then may not fit well some devices because they are longer than a holder.

Discharge Rate: 1.50 A
Starting Voltage: 4.00 V
Ending Voltage: 2.80 V
Total Time (hh:mm:ss): 1:38:35
Tested Capacity: 2.46 Ah

Other Thoughts: - Good and economical overall battery. Similar to sku.5790
- havent tested them yet to run untill protection cuts
Bottomline: - works great in my Aurora AK-P7-3 SSC P7 900-Lumen 2-Mode LED Flashlight

Pros: Hello everyone!
I just recently found about CREE Flashlights, so am not really a rookie just a beginner.
I bought few models of DX and all modells are power either with CR123A or 18650 Lithium Batteries.
My flashlight beam is as shiny and light as i wish. I was once a fan of Xeon lights like maglite and stuff... my pro gear now is a SSC lamp powered with one 18650 cell!
maybe these protected cells could be usefull for remote controlled devices as well?
Cons: I can really say cons here but here a few
-not really 2400 mah
I need to test them how many charge and discharge cyles these battiers hold... this may take a while
Other Thoughts: I just bought 40 packs of these for my friends and customers. real bargain here!
Bottomline: If you need 18650 cells buy there, u wont regret it!

Pros: I was pleasantly surprised to find that this fit the Jet III Pro, which apparently has a reputation for only just fitting other cells. I went out of my way to order a certain premium brand of 18650s as well, but discovered that these ones fit anyway.
Cons: None that I've noticed so far.
Other Thoughts: Nothing to report.
Bottomline: They're batteries, they're protected, and they do the job. You do tend to get what you pay for, though, so I won't be suprised if these don't last as long as the cells I paid more than twice as much for. Really, how far wrong could you go with these?
