Latest release Vapcell 21700 5600mah 12.5A battery

With >2800mAh I have a couple of months queue, but the test station for the smaller sizes is basically empty. I have been using it to test cheap batteries on (I do not care about the <=2800mAh rating for cheap batteries).
The reason for the split at 2800mAh is to always test same capacity on same test station, this gives the absolutely best comparison (There is a small difference between the two test stations).

ok Thanks

Found the 16340 cells on the Vapcell store and ordered 2 pairs to check :slight_smile:

Thanks, ordered also, let’s hope we finally have some new decent 16340s.

Me too! Looks good.

Indeed. I was not a fan of 16340 format. Too close to 18350 and way less capable.
But this cell significantly reduces the gap.
And add availability of USB rechargable cells - 16340 becomes interesting.

But 16340 lights are sooooo nice to EDC…

Thank you very much. Cassiel released the 16340 in Ali.

What is EBC? Thanks :person_facepalming:

EDC = Every Day Carry

Another words, a light that’s small enough to carry around all the time.

I EDC 2 kinds of lights:

  • neck ones
    • 16340 is far too large already….but nevertheless acceptable
      • I’ve worn lights up to 25.4 mm in diameter - so even 21700 would do. :smiley:
  • backpack ones
    • Lumintop GT Mini 18350 for quite some time already
    • the size difference between 16340 and 18350 is meaningless here

I really wish I had a better driver in my Utorch S1 Mini. BLF firmware, FET, good cell, quad E21…ah, that’s a nice dream. :slight_smile:
And some really low diameter 16340 light, say 19-19.5 mm would be even better. :slight_smile:

I just ordered a pair of 16340 to try in my Olight S1RII. The mah numbers on these look great.

Ordered 3 pairs.

Finally nice to see a decent 16340 available.

Just placed my order. Thanks Dennis and Vapcell for making this happen. :+1:
I’ll give them a good discharge test and see how they perform.

Thanks you very much :slight_smile:

@ Dennis …. I am gonna order a few 14500’s Flat top & Button Top.

Question: Are the “Button Tops” ’securely’ spot welded??

Thanks in advance…… :+1:

Really interested in seeing that red 2800mah cell. Molicel has been kicking serious ass lately according to Mooch’s review. Hoping the P28A will be better than the current best performers VTC5D and VTC6A.

Safe to use, directly welded, no nickel strip

If a larger shear force is applied, it may fall off.

Thank you very much. I got two samples a few months ago. I didn’t test them. If I tested them, it would affect the performance of the battery.

Direct to HKJ test, but lost on the way

unfortunately :cry:

I heard that the performance is better than P26A. It can be compared with VTC5D.

Thank you Dennis!! That sounds great.
I just wanted to make sure they were spot welded. :+1:
