What is Bulk Rate? BulkRate is a semi-wholesale system with items priced separately from retail. When you use bulk rates, a flat $1.70 registered air mail fee will automatically be added to your cart to ensure delivery of package. While BulkRate's intention is to offer cheaper prices when you buy in bulk, because it is priced separately it on occassions show a higher than retail price. That's why we ask you to enter BULKRATE as a coupon code to manually activate the rates. You can always opt not to use the bulk rates. If you are looking for wholesale prices please feel free to contact us.

Good Rechargable 16340's

Pros: Good reviews from others who have tested these batteries.
Very good price for rechargable 16340.
 
Cons: None so far.
 
Other Thoughts: I did my research before buying some 16340 cells and these seemed like the best cells on DX for the price.
Protected cells are always the safe choice because if shorted or overcharged they won't catch fire.
 
Bottomline: So far very good, If they recharge 300 times or more then they are WAY cheaper than primaries. Even if they only recharge 10 times they are still cheaper.
Buy the Digital LI-ion charger to charge these cells sku # 6105

Once again a great deal

Pros: This is like my 5 or 6 set of these.  Just a super handy battery at a great price.  Once again I got to perfect cells. No complaints- these are the trustfire this time.
 
Cons: No- none, nada, nope, nunca, nil.
 
Other Thoughts: If you can handle the extra voltage (or more properly if your device can) and you don't mind using some common sense when charging- then these are for you.  I have 3 different chargers for these- the DSD the Trustfire and the Nano-  they all work great with this cell.
 
Bottomline: Just get it- forget the whiney people that complain about these-  I have over a dozen and have not had a bad cell-  and if you do get the rare bad cell- just take a few photos and contact DX- they will send you 2 new cells and let you keep the bad ones.

Pros: Cheap Lithium Batteries. Protected. They looks ok.
 
Cons: Unfortunately, one out of two has a problem. It charges, it works, but it cuts off itself at 3.4V. The protection circuit at the negative end of the battery is way off, and the battery leans a lot. Thus, I can't give good rating.
 
Other Thoughts: One half dud from 2 is not a impressive at all. Maybe I was not lucky or something. But I am sure I am not the only one who gets half dud. I won't bother go thru all return/exchange stuffs since its cheap battery.
Trustfire should pay bit more attention on their quality control department if they have any.
 
Bottomline: I hope this is just a bad exception only happens to me.
