Thanks for the links!
Ahhh...Torchy! He does some great testing. We've collaborated on a couple of them.
I've done a bit of testing here....see my signature for the links to my blog. Hopefully I'll be able to continue testing and get to the rest of the rewrapped batteries....and 26650's, 18500's, and 18350's.
I have issues with the PVA videos. There are factual errors in the ones I've seen and his tests don't track temperature or how the battery's overall life is affected by being discharged at their rated current level. These omissions are critical for not only establishing safety limits for discharging a battery but also for setting performance limits (making sure the batteries last a long time). These are the basis for the testing I've done here.
Someone has contacted me and is donating three different AW batteries (3000mAh, 2200mAh, and 1600mAh) for testing so I'll be able to do some direct comparisons against other batteries soon.![]()
Thanks for your links as well, I do have a problem with a lot of these battery tests not checking temperature. That's one thing I constantly check on the Reos and any mech mods.
