Help charging Flat top batterys

[kirrielad]

Hi all, bought a few of the efest 18650 flat tops to put in my LT as the nipple tops seem to prevent the base screwing on properly. Problem im having is that when i put them in my charger (xtar wp2) they dont seem to make contact and the light stays green. Anyone had the same issue or got any ideas?

Another quickie, does the LT cut the power like the vamo when the batteries become to drained?

Try putting the batteries in the charger at a slight angle, bottoms up!

Yes, the LT will cut out before the battery gets to low!

Thankyou Karma Ill go try that.

Most of my flat tops charge ok, but, I've got one that does not always make good contact, so I put a small flat magnet on the pos. end and then take it off when charged.

If you check the various vendor sites there are at least a couple or more that sell the magnets.

I had to do that, but then I bought a Nitecore Intellicharger i4
