    Efest 3400mAh protected 18650

    Thanks to the generosity of Alba Vapours, I got my hands on an Efest 3400mAh protected 18650. At 1A constant discharge, it leaves the likes of AW and Xtar 3100mAh trailing: Thev high discharge pcb allows a discharge current of over 5A, here is constant 5A discharge:

    18350 AW v Torchy v Totally Wicked

    The Totally Wicked stated "protected" on the label, but had no protection. I have been assured that the Torchy batteries are IMR (LiMn2O4) but the internal resistance is on the high side, although lower than any LiCo2 standard Li-Ion battery I have tested. Actual Capacity (mAh) Torchy 850mAh...

    Fake AW 18650...?

    I wouldn't mind testing one to make sure given the reported difference in performance.

    Fake AW 18650...?

    Bottom one is fake. I have several Aw of all sizes. None have the additional printing and test results are as expected from AW. If you want to send me one of the fake ones to test, I'll send you a SenyBor IMR 2250mAh to try (button top) or Panasonic CGR18650CH (flat top).

    Efest batteries ?

    IMR should have a lower internal resistance compared to LiCO2 and should be able to deliver higher current with less thermal build up, but they still need to be handled properly. The major brands of Li-Ion such as Panasonic and LG will withstand short circuit. Panasonic NCR batteries also...

    provari and AW 18650 protected 3100 mAh rechargeable lithium battery

    The Panasonic NCR set new standards for LiCoO2 batteries with their heat reducing later and ability to withstand short circuit. Generally, Lithium Cobalt aren't a problem unless you buy Ultrafire or anything that looks too cheap to be true.
