Why This Bundle
The Samsung 50G is a high-energy 21700 cell in the same general class as the 50E — a genuine 5000mAh capacity with a 9.8A continuous discharge rating (up to 14.7A in short pulses), built for runtime-focused applications rather than extreme current draw. Six of these cells need a charging setup that can keep up — at home and on the go. This bundle pairs 6 genuine Samsung INR21700-50G batteries with the NITECORE UMS4 (a 4-bay smart LCD charger for fast, monitored charging at your desk) and the NITECORE UI1 (an ultra-compact single-slot charger for travel or topping off a spare cell). Together, all 6 batteries can be charged at once — 4 in the UMS4, and the 5th and 6th staggered through the UI1 — with full visibility into every cell's health.

Note: This cell is an energy/runtime-focused 21700, similar in profile to the Samsung 50E — built for moderate, sustained current draw rather than extreme high-drain applications.
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.

Compatibility Notes
The UMS4's bays and spring-loaded contacts are sized to accommodate 21700 cells like the 50G without any adapter, and the UI1's slot fits the same length range. Since the 50G has a relatively large 5000mAh capacity, charging speed does matter here: the UMS4 (up to 3,000mA on a single occupied bay) will get closer to the 50G's 2.45A rated charge current than the UI1 (up to 1,000mA), so we'd suggest running your most time-sensitive cells through the UMS4 and using the UI1 for the batteries you're least in a hurry about.

FAQ
Q: Can I charge all 6 batteries at the same time? A: Yes. The UMS4 charges 4 batteries independently and simultaneously, while the UI1 can charge a 5th battery alongside it — or you can stagger the 5th and 6th through the UI1 if only one is used at a time.
Q: How does the 50G compare to the 50E? A: The two are very close in profile — both 5000mAh-class cells with similar continuous discharge ratings (50G: 9.8A continuous/14.7A pulse; 50E: 9.8A). Independent testing has found the 50E slightly edges out the 50G in raw capacity, while both deliver similar overall energy.
Q: Will 21700 batteries fit in both chargers? A: Yes. Both the UMS4 and UI1 are sized to accommodate 21700 cells like the 50G without any adapter.
Q: What's the difference between the UMS4 and UI1 in this bundle? A: The UMS4 is a 4-bay charger with an LCD screen showing detailed real-time data (battery health, internal resistance, voltage, capacity) and faster QC charging up to 3,000mA on a single bay. The UI1 is a single-slot, ultra-compact charger (40.5g) best suited for travel or a slower backup charge — with a 5000mAh cell like the 50G, it will take noticeably longer to fill on the UI1 than on the UMS4.
Q: How do I check if a 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: 6 Samsung INR21700-50G batteries, 1 NITECORE UMS4 charger, 1 NITECORE UI1 charger, 2 USB-C charging cables, and user manuals for both chargers.
