Thanks @Mooch for this is why I point out that eFest is a dangerous and malicious company that puts their customers at risk.
But, tell us how you really feel...1) Efest is an electronics trading company that sells private label batteries. They are not a battery company. Every single battery they market to vapers is a rewrapped Samsung, Sony, LG, or Panasonic/Sanyo battery. Every single one performs identically and is identical in appearance to one of the Samsung, Sony, LG, or Panasonic/Sanyo batteries. This includes examination of the tooling marks with a 10x loupe.
Efest is lying to that shop manager if they told him they don't rewrap batteries.
Efest might have exclusive manufacturing agreements with one or more battery factories to produce for them but, if this is being done, it's only for the low-amp power bank and flashlight cells. Nothing we use.
Efest's own marketing department told me they make some and rewrap others.
2) Some of Efest's batteries only have one number on them with no indication whether it's continuous or pulse. "Max" is utterly useless as a rating indicator as it can mean continuous or pulse.
If the battery only has one number on it that means you can discharge it any way you want because they have not indicated in any way that it's continuous or pulse. If they are claiming it's only a pulse rating then they are playing a bs game with us, trying to trick us into thinking it could mean continuous. That's unacceptable.
Rating a 10A battery at 35A doesn't work even as a pulse rating. What they did. was a lie...period.
Any company that says that a continuous rating is useless because we pulse batteries when vaping is not only ignorant of the most basic concepts regarding battery ratings but they are blatantly ignoring the safety of their customers.
A pulse rating is useless unless you define the length of the pulse, the time between pulses, and the criteria used to establish the rating (temperature? run time? voltage sag?). None of these have ever been listed by Efest. Their ratings are useless and misleading.
Continuous current ratings are an industry standard and the only way we can compare one battery directly against another. None of the large battery companies have pulse ratings. Why? They're useless because they would only apply to a specific application. The only timed discharge ratings the big companies have are for the protection electronics for the battery packs using that battery.
Efest would know all this if they were a battery company.
Continuous current ratings are also critical for safety. It's the only way you can know if you might have a problem if there is a mod malfunction or accidental button press that discharges the battery continuously. Efest saying the continuous rating isn't important shows remarkable ignorance of battery safety and their customers.
But, tell us how you really feel...

Or made to pay russian roulette with 0.01Ω mechs loaded with BS re-wraps until someone gets burnt.
