21700 Charger

[ericscicluna]

Hi All,

So, I need to purchase a new charger and the only one that I can find in stock is the "Nitecore D4 DigiCharger"
https://www.nitecorestore.com/Nitecore-D4-DigiCharger-p/chg-nite-d4.htm

I use a lot of 21700 batteries, and apparently this charger doesn't support these batteries... Anyone has experience with this charger and does it really not charge 21700? Or is it only because the charger was manufactures before 21700 appeared in the market?

Is it dangerous to charge 21700 batteries in this charger since its not listed anywhere or should it be fine?

On the other hand, are Nitecore good chargers or you recommend something else?

Thanks <3

Are you based in the UK? Fogstar are good for chargers and batteries. Use code POTV20 to get 20% off.

None, I'm in Malta, my supplier only has the one I mentioned in stock unfortunately that's why I'm asking.

I had a i4 and replaced it with the xtar vc4s as it provides faster charging on 2 slots. I don't know if it's "wayyy better", but the i4 sits in the cupboard somewhere.

EDIT: See later posts.
The D4 will work perfectly well with 21700's, apparently it came out before 21700's were around. Don't know why it isn't listed. I found the following thread - https://www.planetofthevapes.co.uk/...thing-ecigs/threads/nitecore-d4-21700.187261/

Nitecore and xstar are both good brands.

i purchased my last xstar charger from the xstar store on Amazon if that helps your options

However, I am finding some references to it not working with all 21700's, so it may be hit and miss.
