Deker 3,450 Posted February 21, 2021 Report Share Posted February 21, 2021 (edited) Help me out guys, I have several lamps that take these batteries and historically found them easily and cheaply on Ebay etc. It now seems they all come with chargers and Im struggling to find a bundle with maybe 4-6-8 or even 10 batteries by themselves. Any idea whats going on or where I can simply buy a few new battieries? Cheers Edited February 21, 2021 by Deker Quote Link to post Share on other sites

pesky1972 4,926 Posted February 21, 2021 Report Share Posted February 21, 2021 Think there was someone on here a few years back sold them? Maybe do a thread search. Sure I bought some off this lot a few years ago.

Deker 3,450 Posted February 21, 2021 Author Report Share Posted February 21, 2021 Thanks guys, I used to get 4 of the cheap ebay batteries for about £4.00, the last I got cost about £5.50 for 4. I know they weren't very good but I was happy to buy at that price a simply throw away afer a few charges. I simply can't find anything like that anymore and all the cheap ones seem to come with a charger which I don't need (I have several chargers) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Chaff 3,414 Posted February 21, 2021 Report Share Posted February 21, 2021 I had a 9ah drill battery that stopped charging, so took it apart and found 15 x Samsung 18650s inside 2 of the cells wouldn't charge the rest all good. I have soldered some together and use them in my cheap chink lamp and carry a spare now,plus I use them in vaping devices and torches. So if you have a dodgy lithium power tool battery don't launch it 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
