[QUOTE="ozziii, post: 194828, member: 3482"] Pulled apart an old computer battery (laptop) on the weekend, got 6x 18650 batteries from it. On the battery pack it said 11.1v, 4000mAh, so whats the best way of working out the mAh rating of each battery. The multi metre I have is just a cheap crappy one & doesn't have a way to tell what the mAh rating is, not even sure if any multi metre's can but then I don't know much about them so maybe some can. Because the voltage is close to half of the total voltage of the 6x 18650 (6x 3.7v = 23.1v) batteries would that make the mAh rating of each battery around half of the total mAh output, so maybe 2000mAh for each battery. If I can't end up making a battery pack for the detector to use them then atleast I have some extras for my little torch. Thanks for any help. Paul. [/QUOTE]
