yep, Were in agreement on that. Just got a note from TET herself ;
"The batteries we use get up to 4.2V when they are fully charged. Going any higher than that could be bad. 4.2 is the maximum you should operate it at, which is normal for a fully charged 3.7V 18650 until the charge diminishes.."
The advantage of using the eneloops is 1) very long charge retention 2) double the capacity and so, time; nearly 6 or more amp hours, depending on which eneloops you choose 3) cheaper initial cost , about $2.00 each x 12, or 9...
'course it would be nice to have an 8 or more bay charger, and then you have faster charge times too (4).
Late word from TET . This just in :
( on operation at 4.3 to 4.4 volts, .2 volts over recommended voltage) " It would fatigue the wire at the least. Unless you run it at 5.7 volts+ it won't "blow", but will definitely wear it out faster. It would also heat up very quick and easily combust/burn the material if you aren't careful."

we should realize that not all two foot tall people with three heads are trolls!
mod note: Your post is clearly a joke, but you should have included a to make sure that everyone gets it.
