How do I choose the best batteries or battery for my torch?
Choosing the right power source and proper maintenance will help you get the most out of your torch. Whether you are looking for a durable battery for sporadic use or a powerful battery for intensive applications, there is always a solution that fits your needs perfectly!
Alkaline batteries: ideal for less intensive use
Alkaline batteries are a perfect choice as a non-rechargeable solution. They offer excellent performance, operate reliably at low temperatures, have high energy storage capacity and last a long time. This makes them ideal for occasional use or as a spare battery in emergency situations.
Rechargeable 18650 batteries: for intensive users
For those who use a torch regularly, rechargeable 18650 batteries are an excellent choice. These powerful power sources deliver exceptional performance and are suitable for demanding use. Special chargers are also available to charge these batteries easily and quickly.
Care tips for torches: prevent deep discharge and extend the service life
Are you not using your flashlight for a while? Take the following steps to optimise the life of your battery and avoid damage. Always loosen the tailcap slightly when storing the torch. This prevents deep discharge of the battery; even when the torch is off, it can still consume a small amount of power. A battery that is too deeply discharged often cannot be recharged anymore.
Does your torch have a built-in battery that you cannot remove? Then make sure you charge the torch every 3-4 months, even when you are not using it. This not only helps prevent deep discharge, but also contributes to the overall battery life.
For further maintenance, if you do not use your torch for a longer period of time, it is advisable to remove the batteries or accumulators. This prevents leakage and other damage, keeping your device in top condition and avoiding unnecessary costs. By following these simple maintenance tips, you will keep your torch ready for use whenever you need it.
