This is not a big deal. The 21700 is a 50% bigger container than the 18650 and this model has a 37% increase in capacity. So it is normal.
The big battery companies Sony, Samsung, LG and Panasonic/Sanyo have very good mixes for their batteries. If they made a 26650 (double the container size of 18650) it would be in the 6500mah to 7000mah range.
Let me guess:
a) one XHP35, one XP-L HI (dedomed XP-L2 would be awesome, but I don’t dare to hope)
b) one low CRI XHP35, one high CRI XHP35
c) one 6000-6500K CCT, one 4000-4500K CCT XHP35 (based on recent Astrolux throwers)
Samsung 21700 48G source is really hard to secure in China. Whereas, LISHEN LR2170SA seem to be not bad alternative, 800mAh lesser but much cheaper and easily available.
Wuben said they are going to use a rewrapped LG brand 4800mah 21700. I could not find much info on that battery so it might not be officially released yet.
I’m not familiar with the LISHEN brand. Has it been tested out?
I know the Liitokala 4000 yellow has been tested and looks like a really good cell. It’s cheap as well.
I was asking about the LISHEN tests. Has it been tested? Or did someone legitimately figure out they are the same, so therefore we are using the Liitokala results for the Lishen?
EDIT: I see in freeme’s review of the EC65 that the latter is true.
