can i use 4 x lithium ion batteries on it? 3.7V x 4 approx 14.8V. does it have some sort of voltage regulator or soemthing?

Yes. You can use AA lithium ion batteries. However you will probably have trouble with overheating if you are using the flash frequently at full power. I've not had my flash overheat as much when I use Enloop's NiMH rechargeable batteries. I also try to not use my flash on TTL or full power unless necessary. .

hi&#65292; 4. Voltage: 3.7V 5. Capacity: 5000mAh 6. Chemistry: Li-ion (Lithium Ion)

18650 batteries are much too large to fit in this. Besides, they are L-ion and run on different volts.

I see this question asked a lot. There are NO "AA" Li-Ion batteries. There are "AA" sized 14500 cells, but they are NOT interchangeable with any type of "AA" cell. Li-Ion 14500 cells have a nominal voltage of 3.7V (4.2V fresh off charge), while normal "AA" cells are 1.5V for disposables, and 1.2-1.4V for rechargeable types (Ni-Cad/NiMH). Putting 14500 Li-Ion cells into anything designed for "AA" batteries will fry the device instantly. There are also non-rechargeable Lithium "AA" cells, like the Energizer L91, and while those are slightly higher in voltage (1.7V) they usually can be substituted for standard "AA" cells. I would only recommend those in devices that take few cells (1-4). For devices that use a lot of cells (6 or more) the cumulative voltage of the Lithium "AA" cells could be dangerous.

It uses four AA batteries at 1.5 volts each or 6 volts total. You can, if electrically inclined, fabricate the proper connector and use a universal power supply.

Yes it is.It will hold a 18v with a drill with a lithium ion battery , and charger.

Yes this is for 4 batteries. These batteries came from BULK cases of 1000 cells each. You save A LOT of money since you are not paying for the fancy printed cardboard and plastic of the retail packaging. Just make sure the batteries have the latest MAR 2024 expiration date on them and tested at 3.2V before use.

16650 lithium ion's work great in mine. Get a good quality charger and batteries and don't leave any lithium ion battery charging unattended. That includes cell phones, tablets, laptop computers, etc. Unattended includes over night.

There are batteries available that, instead of actually being batteries, are just wired straight through so that they work as spacers in applications like yours. Obviously this is just a plain holder for 8 cells in series, but a combination of up to 8 AA batteries and AA spacers will give you the variable voltage you're after.

If the voltage is close to 6 volts. I use 2 lithium ion cells which I got out of an old laptop battery and it works great plus it's very portable. However you need a charger.

I fully charge it, then i run it plugged in for several hours didThis all summer. Also the lithium battery is (2) batterries for7.4V @ 800 mAh . They are inside the top cover there is aTriangle security screw but it is removable.

I have several 4.8 adapters I should have disposed of but didn't. I need a 5v adapter and I believe 4.8 would suffice, but the tips are ever so slightly different in size, of course, so none would connect. +/- 2 v shouldn't make a noticeable difference as far as I know since battery voltages vary as they drain with no ill effect on the equipment..

No. You would need 3 in series to get the right voltage, and that won't fit. But if you have an old "dead" laptop battery, try opening it up; they are usually full of ~6 of these 18650s, and usually it's only 1 that's gone bad. You will need a charger, though, and a good one. Tenergy makes a good one, that charges up to two cells independently (that's important for lithium batteries!!); it's ~$40 and comes with 2 high-quality 18650 batteries, so you don't really need to mess with the old laptop after all.

I guess you can use any battery on it as long as the voltage and the amperage is within the specification of the original battery that you are replacing. I replaced my battery with 8 NiMH, 1.2V, 2000 mAh which brought the total voltage at 9.6 volts. It worked perfectly and it also increased the running time before I have to recharge the batteries.

I got UltraFire #BRC 18650 3000mAh 3.7V li-ion batterys there like a over sized AA, They seem to work fine and u can order with a charger.

Yes. I have the 3/8" drive version that came with two batteries (20V Max lithium ion 3.0 ah) and I use one in this one too.

When I first saw this product had a cut out voltage of 14.2 i thought 'hey that's low...' in my humble opinion(the only meaning of IMHO i know) you should look into the difference between charge types, float, bulk... then you will understand the numbers on this unit, and your batteries a bit better.
