Hi, does anybody know the capacity of this battery pack? I need the information to properly charge it using my digital charger. Is it true it's just 1800 mAh, as the manual says? Mine was made/assembled in "07/08." Thank you.

An Ikelite representative told me the batteries are 3,000mAh cells. But my test showed otherwise (3800mAh):

I guess they might under-rate the packs. Every mfgr tends to over rate their tests and advertise creative specifications. It is nice to see an independent party test items and post results! I have plans on testing the 8 "C" cell LED lights from 3 mfgrs in the next month or so. I will post results when done. I will use a lumens meter hooked to the computer to measure output and time.
