Hello Dear customers,
As you know, there had some problems with batteries shipping by airmail, we just figure it out and our own brand battery Tlife can be shipped to Australia now.
We sent to some popular guys for review like HKJ, batteries work good and non-oversized in capacity.
Cheers.

Hi iampivot, it has other combos on sale too, if someone want to buy 4 or 8pcs, that would be a good choice, thank you.
200 times is not long cycle life.
LI-Ion 18650 batteries had at least 500 times cycle life even many years back.
The latest Panasonic 18650 are rumoured to have a 1000 times cycle life and actual capacity of 3400 mah and above.
I am very surprised at the low capacity 2200 mah and low cycle life of 200 of this.
Speaking of panasonic, very similar looking sleeve to their NCR18650s. Wonder if they are at least capable of high current discharge?
Not all 18650s are designed to have HDC. The NCR18650s aren't even a HDC battery.
Never said they were. NCR18650BD is capable of 10A I think, not sure of burst.
What I meant though, is that given the low capacity, you'd hope they were at least high drain. Usually a trade off. Like INR 25R's can handle something like 35A, but only 2500mAh. 30Q's less Amps, but 3000mAh.
@rhangman: Ahh yeah, I get what you're saying. Indeed, if they're not HDC they sure as shit should be 3400mAh.
I havent read any of its actual specs, but based on what youve said Im surprised too, but Im surprised they tell you. Normally they inflate every spec.
Hello techno2000, thanks for your comment, I owned my panasonic NCR18650B-MH12210 batteries for over 1 year, it works well of course. I don't know too much about the discharge, current knowledge, but I tried this two batteries and think our brand batteries is a good choice.
Apparently the LADDA batteries at IKEA are actually Enloop Pros (500 recharges instead of 2000, but still all the benefits of Enloop Pro). Make sure the LADDA is made in Japan and you'll have some great batteries for like $2,50 each. I'm going to buy loads of them soon.
They are, but these are different chemistry
18650's are 3.7v Lithiums
You are thinking of NIMH cells which are 1.2v \ 1.5v
What are 3.7v cells good for, like remote control cars?
Very high performance torches
e-cigs (vaping)
power banks
some power tool use it, like saws and drills
batteries for laptops (no longer in fashion, laptops nowadays use flexible lithium polymer, as opposed to prismatic Lithium ion.)
battery packs for electric pedelecs and scooters.
18650 batteries are also found in electric cars, like Tesla vehicles. They happen to use them because they are cheap to manufacture and easy to replace.
In any case, Lithium batteries has very high energy density, charge 3-5 times as fast and even something as small as a button cell can put out a high voltage. You use them wherever you need high voltage + quick charging capabilities.
They also hold their charge for a very long time. My Panasonic's have held 85% of their charge in a year.
can you use them in xbox controllers and stuff? I do like my Turnigys, Enloops, LADDAs, but they do all take a good few hours to charge which is annoying (and why I have so many of them so I can build up a surplus of charged batteries).

@AustriaBargain:
Depending on the electronics something designed for 3V (2x1.5V) might handle an 18650 without frying. Something with a motor, might just chooch faster. Otherwise could use a buck converter or similar to lower the voltage or a boost module to up it, but then you've also go the physical aspect. 18650's are 18x65mm. Longer if protected. Generally won't be room in something designed for smaller cells.
Yeah it is possible to power some electronics but due to the difference in voltage you may run across some issues.

It's noted in the hack above that the Xbox Elite controller does run on a single lithium but probably not as simple as putting the battery in..
18650 are common for bright flashlights
I managed to get Kaidoman to ship Panasonic 18650s.
Is it a standard delivery?
And what was the price?
$31 for a pack of 4, delivered
Was it standard mail delivery?
Hi. My order from Kaidoman arrived today. The box was clearly marked lithium ion battery. However its possible Australian customs added that due to the lack of non english characters. There was also a heck of a lot of tape on it suggesting it was opened and inspected.
Anyway 4 batteries and a case (the smart thing to do would be to pack the batteries in the case) in fairly fast time (Ordered 2nd, shipped 6th, arrived 25th) - and only batteries in the shipment.
Thanks - needed some protected button tops , the shit fire ones I have I do not trust.
Can any of the 14500 and 26650 be shipped?
Yes, the other kinds batteries and power banks can be shipped. :)
hmmm from a quick google it appears that that mAh on chinese batteries are about as believable as lumens on chinese torches :P
why buy 2200 mAh…when you can get 12000mAh!!!
HaHa, you are right before but we are trying to fix it and make it right. :P
Sold out already for the cheaper ones.
