    hmmm Going by the C rating, you certainly do get 26/52 http://www.avacom.cz/Datasheety/Sony/US26650VT.pdf which is strange, as every site - more than 15 - has them listed as 50a continuous, even the flashlight people, which is what I'd had in my mind since picking them up way-back-when. Never...

    the SONY is 50a continuous 80a pulse, and the sag at that drain puts me at only 3.5v or so... so pulling 60a given that the atty gets so hot, you can only do 2-3 pulls before letting it chill (and only maybe 10 total before the cell need switch) - so that 60a is just fine

    What Can Be Done to Prevent Parallel Batts of Unequal Voltage from Draining into Eachother?

    well, that was my initial thinking as well, but then I read a few posts on here and elsewhere that made me think that their doing so would be bad in some way. If it's not then more the better. I realize that wedded batts is necassary

    What Can Be Done to Prevent Parallel Batts of Unequal Voltage from Draining into Eachother?

    cause from my understanding if they are draining into eachother they heat up very quickly

    What Can Be Done to Prevent Parallel Batts of Unequal Voltage from Draining into Eachother?

    I know I saw something somewhere about some sort of one-way diode/gate/something to prevent batts from equalizing, but I can't seem to find it rt now and can't seem to ask google the question properly.

    Just got the Onslaught earlier. First build, simple: Triple 24g Macro, 6/7 wrap, 1/8th ID @ 0.17Ω. Flavor for DAYS, great production. Absolutely love it... a little weird learning to build with that center post. Need to clean the mod so it can patina with the copper sleave

    I Need Help - Seemingly Impossible Problem that Shouldn't Exist

    At any rate electronicstix has taken it back for troubleshooting and/or replacement. Sent from the Northwest Corner, CM

    I Need Help - Seemingly Impossible Problem that Shouldn't Exist

    The batt was only charged to 3.9, so the measured drop was negligible. There is only one insulator, in the topcap, but replacing the topcap didn't fix it. Sent from the Northwest Corner, CM

    I never went in for it, always seemed fishy. But at least now people who like it know they can get it at at 0.00001th the price

    I think it's safe to say that that has been tried lol.

    I would tend to agree, but I just don't get how it was working fine, but now not... and changing to a new steel spring didn't fix it.

    SONY VTC4/5 Specs - Let's Dispell the Misinformation

    SONY US26650VT - 50a continuous but the sag is so bad that you might as well be higher. Some are claiming that the IMREN 26650s are 60a continuous, but I've yet to see any documentation, except for a couple eBay descriptions. I'm thinking they are the same as MNKEs - 20/60 - but I don't really...

    I Need Help - Seemingly Impossible Problem that Shouldn't Exist

    Noalox on the shaft did not help; replacing the spring does not help. The switch shaft conducts fine... just not when assembled.
