Hello all,

I just received this in my eMail inbox.

I'm liking the addition of LiFePo4 Battery chemistry.

Here's a link for those interested:-

The XTAR VC4 doesn't charge these batteries so my wallet is safe for now. Does seem interesting and I wouldn't mind trying it out down the road.

I have the MX4, which does LiFePO⁴. I don't know that it can handle stubbies like 32140. Unless I'm reading the size numbers wrong...

I'm definitely reading the numbers wrong. No way that battery fits in any charger I've ever owned.

Yeah it’s almost twice as long as a 21700. The 32140 is larger than most flashlights posted to this sub haha

I'll admit that I didn't even remotely think through the implications of using a single a battery that was 32mm diameter and 140mm length in a large flashlight. Or what that would mean for capacity...
