There's a little voltage difference among those curves, likely caused by the associated current travel path resistance to Mooch's voltage monitoring probes. Addressed by me in his review of it.
With regards to the actual limitations of the West Mountain Radio CBA, I have no idea besides knowing Mooch's setup is highly customized and improved.
Oh! By the way, 3.2V as high discharge cutoff? This is something I've somewhat got used to hearing from the E-CigaretteForum (LoL!). In my opinion, it is a very high and inadequate value, though of course I can understand its purpose.
There's no doubt their perspective/approach in all of this battery management stuff is quite different from mine. I always (or nearly) keep my li-ions at a max voltage of 14/15 charge voltage to maximize cell lifespan. Knowing how stressful is discharging a cell at around its effective limits/ratings, my philosophy tells me it is wiser to discharge at a slightly slimmer ratio (divide max by √2 as P = I²R) in order to substantially reduce thermal stress in continuous discharge. For pulse discharging, I'd limit myself to about the continuous rating or very little more.
P.S.: yes, the ANR26650M1-B is a real high discharge champion. Good offers for it in AliExpress.
Hey guys, i like shockli brand, new windy fire product line, i have windy fire 18350 series light and it works great on the quad xpl hi v3. i dont know if it the battery or driver… the light doesnt step down from the 2 minutes on high.
So what?? How soon can we order the new shockli 5500 Mah?? If it take very long, i will just get the shockli 4200 mah for $8.49 each,…
now the /www.mtnelectronics.com have some promotion for shockli 26650 battery ,if buy shockli 26650 battery you can get a zipper case .you can see the picture .
Same… I know mtnelectronics.com. I ordered lots of unprotected 18650 from there before. They do not have 5000 or 5500 mah shockli 26650… I will keep checking this page for an update… thanks.
The Shockli zippered hard case is handy for more than just battery storage. (Note: Won’t hold both images at the same time)
