I'm going to guess that every single unit uses the same battery it's a 18650 lithium ion battery. Ranging from 1.5 to 3 amps. The battery has a protection circut . So does the charging circut. To prevent fires .
I have had one unit compleatly fail and another that never gave a full charge. Yes warranty covers this. Warranty is rather pointless in the bush at night. Purchased my units from MEC .
How long would your Ion pro last if you used it every day, um night , for commuting?
Cables failing is exactly why I would never use a separate battery. Night rides and loose cables is a problem waiting to happen.
Are you aware that all these single units most likely use the exact same extremely common battery?
When my battery is low on power I pop in a fresh one. Who wouldn't want that feature. ? No need for battery conservation. Full burn whenever I want. And you probably have a story or two as I do of creeping home on low power. Those days are over for me.
