Hey everyone !
Yesterday I left my trustfire 14500 (blue) battery charging... Today I woke up was going to get it and it had liquid on the outside... it looks like it was coming from the (+) pole... I suppose I shouldn't use it anymore right? o0 will not even try to put it on my JB!
Was it because I left it charging for too many hours? I suppose it was so:
I want to buy the BEST 18650, 14500 and cr123 batts, which I can leave to charge during the night with no problem ! I am currently waiting for the trustfire tr0001 charger, that's the good one right?
I think I'm also supposed to get a diff charger for the cr123's? which?
any advice is welcome as long as I don't have this problem again... it kinda scares me, and I don't have opportunity to charge the batts only for a certain period of time or "till the light turns green"...
is there a solution?

Sorry to hear that Aldo, I know you're not supposed to leave batteries charging unattended. I think the charger you're getting charges all those batteries. I hear good things about the 17670, have you got any of those?

Chargers are supposed to stop charging once the light turns green...but tbh, how would you know?
the Trustfire 0001 is a popular charger Aldo, as good as any other for the money, but as Lee says, you're not supposed to leave the batteries charging unattended at any time, especially not after Raggy's experience...
the solution is buy some more batteries, so you have at least 1 spare, using 1 and 1 on the charger while you're around to keep an eye on it.
