@mschulkind That's an 18650, significantly larger than AA. Many battery packs are just a bunch of these in a plastic shell. Notably Tesla batteries are just a huge group of them in a shell. @missed_sla @mschulkind That one is an 18650, however they do also make the 14500, which is exactly the AA form factor, there are actually a lot of flashlights that can take both 1.5v AA's and 3.7v 14500's.   @directhex This chair looks like where a serial killer Easter Bunny is about to torture you via dental mutilation. 😱  @hellomiakoda @directhex @dw @recursive Yeah, the design is almost as unfortunate as certain famous clown-themed bed.   @directhex@tech.lgbt @dw@infosec.exchange @recursive@hachyderm.io it even provides support @directhex @dw @recursive depends. how strongly do you feel affirmed with your current gender? @dw@infosec.exchange  @dw I don't believe the "soon" part - if they can't be honest about the capacity, how can you trust them for anything else?  @fast_code_r_us Maybe the "soon" part is the one aspect of the product that they have complete confidence in, reliably reproducible in trials? @dw @dw this is triggering me in a big way that the angle of the background that runs through the angle of the N is not the same. 🥴    @dw @winload_exe Chinese Li-Ion manufacturers stop using “fire” in product names challenge (literally impossible)   @ret @WAHa_06x36 almost inclined to believe they're just picking random words out of an English dictionary and stringing some nonsense together into a brand name that sounds cool to them instead, we have pants on fire    @ret @dw @winload_exe smh for once a company is telling the truth directly, without PR and legal watering it down, and you're complaining? /s      @dw @ellieraejaye such honesty in marketing is so refreshing. :neocat_approve:   I wouldn't let a lithium-ion battery with the brand name "Soonfire" closer than a city block to my house.    @dw@infosec.exchange Bought some SoonFire batteries off BangGood you think they'll last?   Probably very, especially if you treat a 2200 - 2500 mAH cell as 3500... No way that's 3500. Yes lots advertised at that, or more, but shrinkwrap is cheap. A quality 2200 in 1s quantity is about 10 bucks.  @dw "surefire" was also a hilariously on the nose brand name, especially since they labeled random cells as "20A"  @dw @dw @dw There's an alarming number of lithium cell manufacturers with "fire" in their names...  @dw If you want to remove the element of uncertainity, I would like to suggest the "Surefire" brand. Fire? For sure! You don't trust all this? No problem, you are covered in this aspect as well! 'Trustfire" is the brand to go! You don't want ANY of that fire catastrophe foresight stuff? Well, I do have bad news for you...  @dw weld some 18AWG massive leads to it if you want to "#FuchAroundAndFindOut" - Just please do any experiments in a dry sandbox with dry sandbags to throw into and the area evacuated... Thanks!     |
@dw but also that's a 3.7V battery in the shape of a AA?!
