I recommend spending money on a decent charger. I use the SKYRC charger for these and other batteries. I have had good luck with green 3400mAh (NCR18650PF) batteries you can find on Amazon.

will it do 4 at once?

The VP4 plus. Will. I do it all the time.

It also can do a burn test and gives you a readout of how much charge your battery takes each charge,

I just saw OP said 26650. I was thinking 18650. Not the same. Sorry OP. I don’t have much experience with those batteries.

ETA: Just checked and the MC3000 will charge 4 26650 batteries.

Any consensus on which of these batteries offered by liionwholesale if any are good for flashlights?
