>>1398551The Harbor Freight Bauer 1.5Ah batteries are $20 and come with 5x 1500mAh Samsung cells. I wish they were a little more powerful but at least they’re new Samsung cells.
That AvE guy bought some knockoff DeWalt and Milwaukee tool batteries and ripped them apart. One of them, the DeWalt maybe? was supposed to be a 3.0Ah pack but came with 10x 2000mAh Sony cells. The catch was the cells were used, but after testing them they worked really well so obviously they were pulled out of something that didn’t run through too many cycles.
As I mentioned though, they won’t be button top batteries. They’re flat tops with the spot welded nickel tab. But I cut them apart and trimmed the tabs on a couple so they fit well in flashlights made for button tops.
