I bought a nice Matco Led flashlight but the battery is dead ..But it takes a special 18650 battery w/ protection pcb and special top pcb ... I want to go on ebay and buy some 18650 batteries and charger .. My problem is that the battery is ground in 2 position in order to turn the flashlight on and off and also charger through the port in the flashlight ??? Can I just ground both points to the chassis and use a normal 18650 or do I need to design my own led driver ????
Here is one pic of the ground pin and the other contacts the case and neither touches unless on the PCB
