Test/review of PKCell IMR18350 700mAh (Blue)

PKCell IMR18350 700mAh (Blue)







Official specifications:

  • Nominal voltage: 3.7V

  • Capacity: 700mAh



LiIon 18350 cell from PKCell, with a rated capacity of 700mAh it looks like old technology.








As is often the case for smaller batteries the capacity of the two cells is not perfectly matched. The cells are best used at currents below 5A.





















Conclusion

These cells are definitely old technology with lower capacity and current capabilities than more modern cells.
