21700 batteries

Most people use 18650 batteries but i don’t see people using 21700 batteries while they have more capacity and are only a bit larger. Does anyone use 21700 batteries in their pack?

21700 are getting popular. Plenty of people use them

Many of the more recent builds are starting to use the 21700 when budget constraints aren’t a main point of the build. (EG: 40T is rising quickly as the goto battery cell)

Many people are 21700 battery woke now. 30Q’s have dominated for a long time because they are amazing bang for your buck.

I’ve been advocating the 40t for while now. I use them in most of my builds

Some weeks ago :wink: 360 40T’s

Thing is that most enclosure are perfect for 18650 cells. + 21700 cells are much bigger then 18650. It is not always possible to fit those in a enclosure. I am going to 20s5p on my trampa :see_no_evil:

That’s the same cell volume as a 12s12p 18650…you tryna replace a Lonestar battery?

As my 18650 packs age I’m switching all my boards over to 2170’s. For the cost of a bit more weight I get a lot more range, and I think, though I don’t know, that since Tesla’s use 2170’s that most of the battery advances will happen with this form factor.

Jesus Christ. Do you just sit on that to ride?
