Beats me, you can't tell from looking at a picture really. Some that have looked good didn't work.
Why not buy one and see?

Perhaps Pappy is jaded? Air in shopping cart on PV -- now that price has dropped as anticipated -- but failed to pull trigger.

So your telling me that your batteries are superior to makes such as Sony and Panasonic that have a 3 year life compared to a year with yours besides the better power retention? Because your batteries are identified on the side as BAK batteries which are like most Chinese made and very cheap to buy direct from this manufacturer?
I used the word superior to push my point that there are batteries out there that do the same job and of equal or better quality, they could release the full specs so an alternative brand can be used. I also think the price of their charger is cheeky considering it's basic nature.Thanks. It'll be interesting to see how they respond.
FWIW I don't think that's what they're saying at all. My take is this battery is best suited to the duty. "Superior" only has meaning after you define the qualities you value? I don't think they're saying their battery is the only one that will work, only that some others won't and they don't want to get into the business of guarantying suitability of batteries they have no real control of.
As far as BAK being typical cheap Chinese batteries, Centizen looked into that IIRC. He said, I think, he was quite impressed with them, and I tend to value his opinion in the area very highly. Perhaps he can shed some light here?

5) As a beginner, I'll obviously be experimenting with how much medicine I put in the chamber. Do I need to order screens for when I only half fill it? If so, can I use any generic screen or I do need specific Arizer brand screens? Should they be domed or not? Where's the cheapest place I can get them? (Same place I'm buying the vape?)
6) Do I need to o-rings? In my reading I've seen a few posts saying the stem in the Solo can be a bit loose, so if I get a Solo should I get some o-rings just in case? I'm not sure if they're needed with the Air, but if I get an Air I'll also be buying a long Solo stem to experiment with, will an o-ring be needed in that scenario?
Hey Air-Heads.
I forget and cba to find the post, but, I followed up on a poster's advice and ordered some perfectly fitting pre-domed screens for my Air aroma tubes.....
I agree, the best screen scheme I've tried (one of the few that stays put in the Air stem), highly recommended. Sinclue done good. Don't tell him, though........
Your secret's safe with me
Couldn't resist. It's so cool.. what's the max volts on these again? It charged up to 4.20v and then reduced to a trickle charge.
edit: sorry if that's a giant picture I'm on my mobile

..your D4 charger is doing its job, 4.20 volts is the maximum allowable voltage for those batteries.
But is that the case? Arizer air to green was 4.17V. So if you disconnect when its green seems like thats really close with your result of 4.2VI wouldn't risk using other batteries personally but after weighing my options I'm comfortable using this charger and maybe getting a little less juice per charge.
I don't mind if they don't have quite as long run time because I can keep 2 charged spares with me. Convenience of charging on a daily basis is more important to me and digital readout is as convenient as it gets imo.

I have confirmed the outer and inner pin size, as well as the pin length and it all seems to line up.
Does anyone have a PSP charger either wall or USB that they could test the fit? Probably best not to turn on if using wall version as output could be differnt.
