@braveit1@katbyter it’s the form factor. it’s perfectly shaped to accept 2x 18650 batteries (which are far and away the most common lithium battery in this sort of application, so you can bet it won’t surprise you.) 2000 mAh is low for modern 18650s though, so these probably aren’t great quality cells

These ARE your grandmother’s powerbanks.
@mehcuda67 Heh! Yes, she should put them out on the living room coffee table for guests, next to the bowl of individually wrapped Werther’s Originals.
I bought these last time and they are terrible. One never charged, and the other barely works when charged. Sorry, Grandma.
@gogrrl BUT they also look terrible, so there’s that.
@mehvid1
Yeah…I was only looking at the cheap price. Should have known better.
@gogrrl i actually love how these look but this convinced me not to buy it, so thanks for that
Super cheap source for four 18650 3.7v 2,000mAh batteries! And easy to dissamble.
@braveit1 what tells you that’s the kind of power source inside?

@katbyter I bought some of these when last offered. Took forever to arrive.
@candreasen @katbyter amazon has an 8 pack of the 18650 /2,000mAh batteries for $18. Since these are 2 for $5 you could get 8 of them for $10.
@braveit1 @candreasen Thanks! Spouse is amassing a collection of these batteries. Just want to make sure that’s what’s inside.
