    @i-love-space390 Месяц назад

    I agree with a commenter below, it's when they took mercury out of the batteries that they started to leak like it was 1967 again. Yes, I am that old, and batteries used to leak terribly in the 60s. Then I lived through a period when batteries didn't leak very often at all. Now we are back to the days of crappy, leaky batteries again. And even though many of you say Energizer doesn't leak, I had so much trouble with energizers and Ray-o-Vacs leaking that I went to Duracell, only to find they are just as bad. My clocks have been running on 20 year old Energizer rechargeables for a long time, but I need alkalines to cover the days when they are recharging. The only thing with disposable lithium batteries is the wastage of rare earth metals. Better to go rechargeable.

    The fact that it can run on full power from the charger is definitely overlooked, it's the first review that pointed it out! Definitely increases the light's usefulness as a night light or prolonged use as a signaling light. My Fenix E03R only runs the moonlight and a low mode when connected to charger as it probably doesn't bypass the battery.

I also have a Lumintop Tool AA which is also NiMH/14400 and I've liked the options there, but I think the pocket friendliness of a AAA light is hard to beat.

    It's funny. I got this light last week because of all the reasons you stated. Then, while looking at reviews, I saw the Arkfeld Pro, and had to get that also. Got the Pro for $80 on sale, and love it! 😮

    The lion kingdom's 35 year old mini maglite is probably doomed to remane a museum piece. It's too easy nowadays to strap together random batteries & a $1 LED to do what used to take specialty fabrication.

      I'm using nickel metal hydride AAA batteries do you think it will leak too like alkaline batteries?

    • @chestersedc
      @chestersedc 4 месяца назад

      @playstation2bigs - NiMH batteries can leak, but I think it is much less likely because the batteries are made much stronger. Over charging, deep discharge, heat, and physical damage can lead to the leaks. I have never had NiMH batteries leak and have been using them for 20+ years.

    Been buying regular energizer alkaline batts for decades because they had 10% more juice than Duracells. Haven’t seen any leaks. Glad I switched but didn’t know Duracells leak and Energizers don’t. When batts leak they usually destroy the device even if cleaned.

    Blood Pressure Monitor 1of 4 batteries leaked. Cleaned it up put in new batteries. couple months later monitor fell on floor and didn't work. Checked and found battery in same place leaking. sigh. I stored my batteries in a spare room that did not have a/c. I wondered, and you verified, heat does matter. Thank you, no one else I listened to referred to heat. This kinda makes me nervous because alkaline are in my CO2and smoke detectors. Will have to consider alternatives for those. hope heat is ok for metal hydrate (sp) and Lithium.

      @marybg2145 - Thanks for sharing your experiences. You can get 9V Ultimate Lithium batteries ( amzn.to/3Lj77Rc ), but they are very expensive because 9V batteries are just 6 AAA batteries inside the shell, so a 9V = 6 AAA.

      @marybg2145 - I found these EBL 9V Lithium Batteries for Smoke Detectors ( amzn.to/3Loz75S ) that are half the price of the Energizer Lithium if you want some for your CO2 and smoke detectors. EBL also has AA and AAA lithium batteries.

      @@chestersedc For those who use a flashlight for work it’s a different story. I personally never seem to need a light for more than 10 seconds honestly lol! I really cannot imagine using a flashlight for one hour let alone many hours. I have become much more flexible with runtimes lately. The reality is we live generally in such well illuminated environments. I find months go by I don’t need a flashlight for any reason at all. I don’t know how many experience this as well.

      @onedirection3510 - Sounds like a great fit for your use case. I work in a lot of new building construction with no utilities, so I need a light for hours at times, especially during the winter when it gets dark by 5 PM. Having the right light can make all the difference. Thanks for watching and commenting!

    If a light is for daily use I like rechargeable with ultimate lithium in a bag for backup. If a light is to be kept with a kit, then it is only ultimate lithium for me. If a light has a non replaceable battery, its pretty much a hard no buy for me. Plus I have a few llights that have ithium polymer batteries that I regret buying. The lith-poly batteries will not hold a charge for longer than 3 weeks in my experience. Have you found this to be the case?

    • @chestersedc
      @chestersedc 4 месяца назад

      @OregonMike - Replaceable batteries are one of my top features. I also use Lithium in any light that takes AA or AAA. I have not had any issues with the Lithium-Polymer batteries holding a charge in my Olight Arkfelds. I just checked my Arkfeld Flex I keep in my car, and it has 4 bars after 4+ months of sitting in car. My daily carry Arkfeld Pro has had no issues either.
