Why This Bundle
The EVE 40PL is a tabless 21700 cell engineered specifically to minimize internal impedance and maximize power output — a 4000mAh capacity backed by a genuine 70A continuous discharge rating (with thermal cutoff at 80°C), putting it among the most aggressive high-power 21700 cells on the market. A set this capable deserves a charger that can handle every cell at once while keeping close watch on their health. This bundle pairs 4 genuine EVE INR21700-40PL batteries with the NITECORE UMS4, a QC-enabled 4-slot charger with a detailed LCD display, independent bay control, and multiple layers of protection — ready to use straight out of the box.

Important: EVE recommends the 40PL be used in properly engineered battery packs with temperature monitoring and appropriate BMS/PCB protection — it's built as a high-power cell for engineered battery systems, not as a casual standalone consumer replacement cell.
This is an unprotected cell — avoid mixing with batteries of a different brand, model, or charge state, and inspect the wrap for damage before every use to prevent short circuits.
The Charger: NITECORE UMS4
-
USB-C input with QC support: up to 4,000mA total output; up to 3,000mA on a single bay with a QC adapter — the fastest option here for this high-power cell, though still conservative compared to what an engineered fast charger could deliver
-
QC Mode output: 3,000mA×1 / 2,000mA×2 / 1,000mA×4 — Standard Mode: 2,000mA×1 / 1,000mA×2 / 500mA×4
-
Independent 4-bay control: charge and monitor up to 4 batteries separately, with each bay unaffected by the others
-
Detailed real-time LCD display: shows battery health (Good/Poor), internal resistance, charging current, voltage, battery type, charged capacity, charging time, cut-off voltage, and charging mode
-
3 automatic charging modes: CC, CV, and -dV/dt, selected automatically based on battery type and charge level
-
Manual adjustment: set charging voltage and current for specialized battery types
-
Safety features: automatic internal resistance detection, reverse-polarity and short-circuit protection, overtime charging protection, and over-discharged battery activation/restoration
-
Fire-retardant PC/ABS housing with built-in temperature regulation
-
Universal power input: works with wall adapters, power banks, and solar panels via USB-C
NITECORE UMS4 – Supported Battery Types & Voltage
Compatible with 3.6V/3.7V Li-ion, 3.8V Li-ion, 3.2V LiFePO4, and 1.2V Ni-MH/Ni-Cd batteries, including the EVE 40PL (21700) in this bundle:
IMR/Li-ion/LiFePO4: 10440, 14500, 14650, 16500, 16340 (RCR123), 16650, 17350, 17500, 17650, 17670, 17700, 18350, 18490, 18500, 18650, 18700, 20700, 21700, 22500, 22650, 25500, 26500, 26650, 26700 Ni-MH/Ni-Cd: AA, AAA, AAAA, C, D
Output current: up to 3,000mA per bay (QC mode) / 4,000mA total
Compatibility Notes
The UMS4 uses spring-loaded contacts and its bays are sized to comfortably fit 21700 cells like the 40PL. Its higher per-bay output (up to 3,000mA with a QC adapter on a single bay) charges this high-power cell noticeably faster than a basic dual-slot travel charger, though it's still more conservative than what a dedicated engineered fast charger could deliver.
Note: With all 4 bays occupied, each will charge more gently at up to 1,000mA (QC mode) or 500mA (standard mode) — a safe, steady pace for four high-power cells at once, though full charges will still take a few hours at these currents.
What's Included
- EVE INR21700-40PL Battery × 4
- NITECORE UMS4 4-Bay Charger × 1
- USB-C Charging Cable × 1
- User Manual × 1
Safety Tips
- Store batteries in a proper case, keeping them away from loose metal objects to prevent short circuits
- Never disassemble, puncture, burn, or submerge the batteries
- Charge only with a genuine, compatible charger such as the NITECORE UMS4
- The 40PL is an unprotected, ultra-high-power cell intended for use within a properly engineered battery pack with its own BMS/PCB protection — do not use it as a standalone replacement cell in casual consumer devices
- Never discharge below 2.5V or charge above 4.2V
FAQ
Q: Can the NITECORE UMS4 charge EVE 40PL batteries safely? A: Yes. The UMS4 automatically detects Li-ion chemistry and applies the correct charging voltage (4.2V) and current for 40PL cells, with real-time monitoring on its LCD display, and it charges these cells considerably faster than a basic low-current charger.
Q: Is the 40PL meant for use in standalone devices like flashlights? A: EVE recommends the 40PL be used in properly engineered battery packs with temperature monitoring and BMS/PCB protection, not as a standalone drop-in cell for casual consumer devices. It's built for power tools, electric two-wheelers, and engineered high-drain battery packs.
Q: What does "tabless" mean for this cell? A: Tabless construction connects the electrode foil directly around the full circumference of the cell rather than through a narrow tab, which significantly reduces internal resistance and lets the cell handle much higher continuous current — a big part of why the 40PL reaches 70A.
Q: Can I charge all 4 batteries at the same time? A: Yes. The UMS4 has 4 independent bays and can charge all 4 cells simultaneously — up to 1,000mA per bay in QC mode, or 500mA per bay in standard mode, when all 4 slots are used at once.
Q: Will 21700 batteries fit properly in the UMS4? A: Yes. The UMS4's bays and spring-loaded contacts are sized to accommodate 21700 cells like the 40PL without any adapter.
Q: How do I know if a 40PL battery is degraded? A: The UMS4's LCD display shows battery health as "Good" or "Poor" along with internal resistance readings, making it easy to spot cells that have aged or lost performance.
Q: What's in the box? A: 4 EVE INR21700-40PL batteries, 1 NITECORE UMS4 charger, a USB-C charging cable, and a user manual.
