This is Grace from AWT, thanks a lot for testing the AWT battery , i learned it from Light Junkie (http://budgetlightforum.com/user/6571) that you are going to test the new 18650 3000mah 35A battery, i have send you the PM, please check you inbox mail. so glat to have you !!!
I also suggested that battery for review. I got some[Thanks to HKJ REVIEW!] ~ 1 month ago based on the reputation of the 18650 IMR 2500mAh 35A. It seems to work well.
I am VERY curious to know what cell is inside? Is it a Samsung cell
Hi Wolfdog/Capolini,
This is Grace, thanks for interested in our battery. i learned that you curious about our battery are re-wraped from Samsung, or LG, or Panosonic or ā¦, i have to addmit that curious is a good thing, it help people to find out the truth. but why we re-wrap the battery? we have so many different capacity of the 18650 battery 1600mah, 2000mah , 2500mah , 2600mah, 3000mah 3100mah with different current , and NOT mention about other size like 266650 or 10440 14500 16340 18350 18490 18500 etc. we have our product line. so , the answer is no ! we did not re-wrap the other brand battery, we are the AWT !!! Original and Authentic !!!
Anyway, it is glad to know you! wish you good day !

And to windyfire-linda (Hi again :laughing: & Grace vivian Aweite, I strongly believe that HKJās battery tests are for many enthusiasts the gate keeper for a sale, because i care very little about what the manufacturer says the battery can do. What i care about & i know many with me care about, is what HKJās test says the battery can do under different amp loads.
So we can know if the battery you are offering are the best fit for what we plan to use it for.
So if you have a new battery send it as soon as possible to HKJ to get tested, because I will only buy batteries that he has tested
Thanks for interesting about our battery, we have send the battery to HKJ to test, and he give us the review on the candle light forum and his own web: Index of AWT batteries
This time, we are going to send HKJ the new released battery 3000mah (18650 )and 5200mah (26650).
Since HKJ is specialized in this field. I believe what HKJ shows us is the most trustworthy data.
hmmmmmm. That is strange. EVERY AWT battery that HKJ has done you did NOT provide information as to what CELL it is?!! Why is that? What is the big secret?!!
If you search for 10440 on there page you will find them, but yes the listings are very āconfusedā of what they are really offering, and donāt make a good first impression.
they sell Ultrafire batteries :Sp, a seller who deals in those always makes me trust them much less
We all know the Ultrafires are of horrible quality & massively lies about there capacity, so i really canāt understand why an honest seller would want anything to do with them at all.
My point is :If it is true WHY donāt they mentioned the cell used? Every single battery that they sent HKJ they DO NOT reveal the cell? Why is that? Are they hiding something?
To the best of my knowledge Sony, Panasonic, Samsung ect. always do?! They are proud of them and have nothing to hide!
I donāt understand your point, if it is a AWT IMR18650 2500mAh 35A battery then that IS the cell inside. If it is true that they are making there own cells like they claim & donāt rewrap.
Just as if you have a Panasonic NCR18650PF then that is the NCR18650PF cell inside.
The only time i remember HKJ adding cell information that differ from the āNameā of the cell, is when it is a rewrap like keeppower or oribitronic for example & not if the information is unavailable.
Look at AWT reviews/specifications and the CELL that is used is BLANK and NEVER mentioned. Look at Sony, Samsung,LG ect., The cell āUsedā is always mentioned in the specs!
Below is what HKJ says at the end of the review of the AWT IMR 2500mAh battery. In this case, āThe Unspecified Cellā gets good grades!
Conclusion
Usual a battery with unspecified cell will not get better rating than acceptable, but there is no doubt it is a very good cell that is used here.
I thin you both are not understanding each other.
Cajampa meant that if they have their own cellā¦ They do not need to mention another manufacturer cell as if it were a rewrap so if you are reviewing a 18650 2450mAh 38Aā¦ At the pointā¦ CELL Used you wonāt read INR18650-25R5ā¦ But just nothing because itās their own cell
Now I donāt know if wolf dog just wanted AWT to put a code on their own cell if this is the caseā¦ So an AWT 18650 2450mAh 28Aā¦ Would be marked as CELL ID something like (AWT18650XYZ38A)
I am NOT alone in speculating/wondering that AWT, EFEST and others may be re wraps because they do NOT verify or mention what cell they are using. For Crying out loud,HKJ mentions it every time at the end of the review when the cell is NOT specified!
I include the cell used if I am told what cell it is and allowed to include the information. I.e. the information is not what I can guess about the cells used, but what I am told.
Generally I doubt the different Chinese brands has their own cell factory, but if a brand states clearly that a cell is made in their own factory, I will probably include that information.
HUGE difference between Panasonic[established/verified/trusted] and AWT or Efest!
That is like saying if it is EFEST IMR 18650 2500mAh 35A then that is what cell is inside?!
Sorry, if someone I do not know says something I need some proof or verification before I believe them,especially from a communist country like China! They thrive on American support,regardless of that when it comes to money, people can and will do anything to make sure that it[$] continues to flow!
