ran mine on 700ma discharge and got 1035 and 1022 out of two, just started running them on a new Klarus XT1A and Rofis R2
just curious since nobody mention this, i suppose these cells arent protected? they are however a little bit longer than the regular sanyo 800mah 14500 cells
What analyzing charger did you use? I ask because this seems a little high.The Manufacturer Rated Typical Capacity is 1000 mAh, and the Manufacturer Rated Nominal Capacity is 900 mAh
I queried Vapcell if these 14500 gold cells were protected and the answer was no. I asked because of the indent around the cylinder near the anode which sometime indicates added protection circuitry.
I am using these cells in my EDC Thorfire TG06S and my new AceBeam H40 headlamp - and have gifted one with a TG06S. I really like them so far and ordered six more from LiionWholesale. Because of the cells's 1000 mA capacity, I am afraid that the current $4.19 price may just be an introductory offer.
The above 16500s (as far as my cell identification abilities go) are Heter Battery manufactured, and that AliExpress seller is quoting me $5̃.19 ($2.595/piece) for a pair shipping included. Now let's make an interesting comparison:
So Heter Battery is ultra likely to manufacture both cells.
Same 16500 cells as before, but this time at $2.49 + shipping. Doing the math: 4 cells cost $9.30 ($2.325/piece), 6 cells come out at $12.52 ($2.08667/piece), or 8 cells at $16.49 ($2.06125/piece).
Now let me set this on fire: what is the reason I cannot manage to see a clear picture of Vapcell 14500s' top in AliExpress? Because they're trying to hide the facts.
P.S.: had to edit the message because the AliExpress system is right now malfunctioning or it is my recently upgraded browser, the amount total for the cells is only raising in the cart page.
P.S.2: edited again to fix the stated price for the Vapcell 14500. Just checked it myself at $6.99 a pair so not bad.
Hi Dennis, did you already have a look into a new high current/capacity 16340 battery? Or is it really not worth the effort for Vapcell because it is not used for vaping? (still many many flashlight lovers will be interested).
We are paying attention to your needs and listening to some members’suggestions.
Thank you very much.
16340 batteries have been in the development stage, and need to negotiate a lot of factory and sample testing. Recently, I am busy, and I don’t have much time to speak in the forum. :cry:
Sorry, maybe the photographer forgot to show more parts of the battery.
It’s no secret that many people can buy batteries in the market.
This is a new battery technology of 14500 batteries, which needs to be developed separately. Not the special 16500 batteries. These are some of the tailings that some companies sell at a low price, such as Lishen 21700 batteries.
Thank you very much for your attention to vapcell batteries
by the way
We choose small parcel and send it to Europe and America. It’s very expensive.
If you need tracking records, you need more expensive freight, about $5.
How do some businessmen do this when their prices are so low that they are crazy?
Batteries are sensitive goods. What kind of small package do other businesses choose?
vapcell Dennis, sorry if my statement sounded too sharp. As a consumer and casual battery pack rebuilder I find disgusting having to deal with bogus battery wrap claims. Even the main battery manufacturers lie to some extent with their claims, at least in my experience. I like peeking at cell datasheets for their official specifications.
When a rewrapping company changes the cell under a wrap without notice, be it for whatever reason, the trust of the consumers suffers.
Yes, this Vapcell 14500 cell is good and price is not too shabby. Thanks.
You may know about the quality of vapcell 18350, 20700 3100mah batteries.
The battery factory changed the battery can and replaced another supplier without notifying us.
But the battery performance is still the same, with only minor changes.
For batteries with poor consistency, we are also trying to replace them better.
I would like to ask, thoese 18350 and 20700, there are many companies also encountered, what companies can let us learn from the example, they provide information updates.
