Latest release Vapcell 21700 5600mah 12.5A battery

This is very exciting news! I love the 14500 size because I have a ton of AA/14500 lights that can use this. I have a number of Sanyo 14500P but always wish the capacity can be higher. This will help a bit. What cell is under the wrap? Surprise it can beat the Sanyo in energy density.

Also, did you send the Sanyo NCR21700A to HKJ for testing? Really like to have that on his comparator. It seems to be the best 21700 for most flashlight use cases unless very high current is required.

Interested in the 14500, and hope you can do a good 16340 also. Have several of both types of lights since I prefer those sizes for edc.

Very interested in this 14500.

I have a number of 14500 flashlights and so far the best high-drain cells I have only hold 650 mAh.

Question on your new 14500s Vapcell: What is the sustainable current? 3A? 4A?

On one of these cells, you can read “Max continuous discharge 3A”

Anyway, looks good. The price is secret intentionally?

Got 4 sofirn 14500 on order but could go 2-4 of these if ship to Oz

Thanks, HKG. The protected cell form factor (apparently) receives little love of late.

This is not a protected cell, it has no electronics that prevent overcurrent or overcharge/-discharge. The PTC is a one-time fuse that will blow in case of a direct short, all li-ion cells from major brands have that.

I’m looking forward to this 14500 coming on the market. Thanks Vapcell!

Interested.

But the Vapcell AliExpress store doesn’t seem to ship to my country, the Philippines.

Is there some way to have it shipped in a reasonable price?

I got a parcel with batteries from your yesterday, I have not checked the contents yet.

It is listed on the Vapcell aliexpress store now.

US $6.99 for a pair.

Items in my Cart, Currently not available to order?

Dunno, just bought 4 of these, I have seen no availability messages.

Nice but it would be perfect if there were new 16340 cells. By far my most used cells.

(djozz) Thanks for the clarification.

(vapcell) Thanks for stating the obvious and the offer of making something happen if needed. I have never witnessed such hostility on this forum to the protected cell form factor. As folks are heaven forbid injured moving forward it will unfortunately be difficult to spotlight but not hard to explain.

Glitching on my side there chief, 4 times, finally went thru, kept faulting out going into PayPal, kicking me back to the website? :rage:

Thanks for endorsing progress here Dennis. Me and others would also have liked a higher drain cell, but thanks anyway. The pricing is fair also. :THUMBS-UP:

The only 14500s I bought more than a couple years ago are installed inside a li-ion converted hair clipper LoL! :-D

Cheers :-)

P.S.: will post this at ForoLinternas' Recommended batteries updated thread, deserved it is (link to mentioning post).

I don’t know how big the 16340 market is, but I was just buying new batteries and there was not much to choose from. So I’d appreciate if there were some (new) good 16340 cells.
