    Bench Test Results: “EVE 50PL” (unconfirmed) - 50A/125A 5000mAh 21700

    These tests below only note my personal opinion for the ESTIMATED ratings for the batteries I tested at the time I tested them. Any battery that is not a genuine Samsung, Sony, Murata, LG, Panasonic, Molicel, EVE, Lishen, BAK, or Sanyo can change at any time! This can be one of the hazards of...

    Bench Retest Results: Molicel P30B - 30A 3000mAh 18650

    There are older ones but no need to avoid them. I haven’t found any difference in performance even for two year old cells. Also, that photo might be old but 18650BatteryStore could be selling newer cells and just kept the old photo there. If you’re still concerned I recommend contacting...

    Bench Retest Results: Molicel P30B - 30A 3000mAh 18650

    That’s exactly why IMO. Cells can’t know what type of device they are in, just how hard they are used.

    Bench Test Results: EVE 40PL - 70A 4000mAh 21700

    My apologies for my response, Things are not going well here, at all, and it’s taking a toll. I hope to do the new Recommended Batteries tables after updating all the E-Scores using the new cutoff voltage I’ve been discussing at Patreon. That’s hours and hours of work…days actually…but will get...

    Bench Test Results: EVE 40PL - 70A 4000mAh 21700

    My patrons get personalized recommendations as they are the ones that make my testing possible, but it’s incredibly hard to find the time to do the publicly-posted tables. Hopefully soon.

    Bench Test Results: Samsung 53G(1) - 10.6A 5300mAh 21700

    It’s correct. That’s where the 5A and 10A discharges end. Are you thinking about the very low current capacity testing that should end at about 5.3Ah? I don’t plot that, I just measure the capacity. Thanks for the feedback! I get requests to end at 3.2V, 3.1V, 3.0V, 2.8V, and 2.5V. You can...

    Bench Test Results: Ampace JP40 - 45A 4000mAh 21700 (all diff serial num. and code boxes)

    No, no concern at all. The CCC mark is on a later date code version of the JP40 and IMO can’t be used for authentication. Any counterfeit can easily add “CCC” to their wrap. Any cell we use can be faked, no matter what the wrap says. I strongly recommend never using the wrap to determine if a...
