Here are the results of my recent testing of several China-manufactured 21700 cells and their basic specs. Choose the one that performs the best (highest E-Score) at the current level you will run them at.
Note that two of these cells have bottom vents. I recommend not blocking those vents or pressing hard against them during use.
I will post my overall recommendations for 21700’s in a day or two.
I want to do this full time! If you feel what I do is worth a couple dollars a month and you would like to help me do more testing, have early access to battery availability, battery and charger testing and news, and a say in what I test, then please consider becoming a patron and supporting my testing: Battery Mooch is creating battery and device tests | Patreon.
You’ll have to ask Lishen why there’s no room-temp-only rating.
The temp-limited one is a room temp rating I guess but it also gives you the max possible rate.
No need to be usage specific as these cells don’t know what they’re operating in and the relative performance differences between the cells change verrry little for continuous vs pulsed use (including different types and lengths of pulsing).
