>Not interested, V-nominal is a little too low for use as a single cell. Todays emitters have a Vf that ranges 3.5 - 4.0V when driven. Even with two cells in series, still the Spec’d capacity is too low. Now if you are rating AH capacity at a higher “C” load, that could change things a bit.

>These cells are more appealing with the higher V-nominal. What “C” are you discharging at to get the Amp-hour capacity rating? Those are really good prices too.
You’d be surprised it is much easier to screw up a Lifepo4’s chemical composition than it is to screw up a LiCo cell. I’ve had several Lifepo4 cells die after just a few gentle cycles.
Mind teaching me how to do it? I have a single ANR26650M1A which I abuse all the time - overcharge due to using 4.2V charger, overdischarge all the time (no low-voltage cutout on a DC/DC boost converter), charge at over 2C (6A for 2.3Ah cell), and it still is alive, after over a year of such abuse.
I’ve had 3 different brands of Lifepo4 cells die very quickly. Infact out of 8x 14500 Lifepo4’s I bought 2 were DOA, and 3-4 died within about a year after just 4-5 cycles or so. I had some A123 18650’s go to 0v just sitting in a drawer for a few months. I had one Lifepo4 RCR123 die after the first charge.
Don’t get me wrong if made correctly, they can handle quite a bit of abuse, but if made incorrectly they are rubbish.
we are professional lithium battery manufacturer, our battery has passes CE,ROHS,UN38.3 etc certificates, we can assure the quality.our wetsite:www.xinchibattery.zxq.net
I used A123 26650 LiFePO4 cells for years in homemade battery packs for brushless RC vehicles. I swear by them. In fact there is a huge community of RC airplane enthusiasts who will tell you that they will take more of a beating than any other chemistry available, and keep bouncing back for more.
Can’t say anything about other manufacturers however.
