I dont even need to look at the batteries, Ultrafire are generally crap. They arent 1200, they have been tested and give under 900mah, but there arent a lot of options in the 18350 size.

I have that charger, you can put other types in it like nicad and nimhs. A better buy in my opinion

I read (can't remember where though) that Ultrafire claim that their batteries give more mah than they actually do and to pretty much avoid them.

Ok cool, so these would be ok in my Vamo, or is the extra for the other ones you posted worth the extra?

Personally I would get the grey ones, because if you cant trust them to put "somewhere near the true capacity" then it puts doubt in my mind and I know the other ones work fine matt1988

Robby could you not just cut the tabs of these:

It seems tick all the right boxes spec wise.

Well I have, but not everyone could do it safely, you can actually get the whole tab off without leaving anything behind if you are careful. If you can remove the whole tab (there seems to be some sort of miniature weld underneath the tab, four on the ones I did) But I wouldnt use them if I didnt get the whole thing off. They are just normal batteries underneath the tabs in that case.

Looking at the spec on that page again, the current rating of them looks a bit low, I wouldnt use them canford

That's music to my ears, robby, going to order one now, thanks for your advice.
