It can be used at safely at 35A as long as it have free air around it (A metal holder can be very close to free air) (It did not get too hot in my 40A test). That is the reason I call it the best high current cell I have seen.
I did not know if you meant “best” high current cell compared to only 18650, or to any cell - so I looked up Liitokala INR26650-50A and the 30T performs much better at high current. Very impressive.
Where in the world can I order these cells? I’ve been using the Sanyo 20700B, but I really want to get my hands on those. Any info or links would be greatly appreciated.
if the resistance that made all that heat were eliminated the test could be more accurate.
btw i rebuilt some versapak sticks with the 30t and they have a slight edge torque wise over the 25r.
Yeah, Samsung INR21700-48G, supporting maximum discharging current at 9.6A, maximum pulse discharge current at 35A for 10 Seconds, 25A for 30 Seconds, and 18A for 60 Seconds. The nominal voltage is 3.6V, charging voltage is 4.2V. We are working on a new e-bike battery pack with just this Li-ion 21700, will come back here once there is any update.
