LiitoKala 26650-50A 5000mah 26650 - great first impressions

Newer version? I think you mean newer sticker, ssschen.

I don't @#$%ing care about stickers, to me the only thing which matters is the OEM wrap and markings. If it says INR26650-50A, that is what it is.

For the same reasons I do not buy “Samsung 3000mAh” cells. I buy ICR18650-30Bs, INR18650-30Qs, INR21700-30Ts… (“s” suffixes stand for plural).

I do not read wraps, I read datasheets and reputable reviews.

Thanks guys. Sounds like the 5100 mAh version is the newer version. Either that, or it really is the same cell, just re-labelled with 5100 mAh, as opposed to 5000 mAh on the old ones you guys have ordered previously

I have 5000mAh labeled version I bought few months before from the same seller and Lii-500 test is about 5100mAh, 5100mAh labeled test as 5600mAh on the same charger so I believe they are not the same.

Well, if the cells are really different I may piss-off, though I doubt it. I have a couple cells from the very first batches (june 2006) with nearly no use, known to be generous in capacity. Hope they match up well if I am to buy a single cell for a 3S arrangement.
