Question

Can you use AA batteries instead of 18650?

Answer 1

The labels \u201c18650\u201d and \u201cAA\u201d technically just refer to different battery sizes. The key distinction is that the 18650 is specifically a size for a rechargeable lithium-ion battery while AA can be zinc-carbon, alkaline, nickel-cadmium, nickel-metal hydride (NiMH), or even lithium-ion among others.Jan 8, 2020');})();(function(){window.jsl.dh('17','
