Test/review of EnerPower+ 32600 6000mAh (Yellow)

EnerPower+ 32600 6000mAh (Yellow)







Official specifications:

  • Nominal voltage: 3.6V

  • Nominal capacity: 6000mAh




This size is same diameter as D cells, but slightly longer. The capacity is fairly low for the size of the cell (This is as expected).










The discharge curves looks fairly good, but not perfect, there is a capacity difference between the cells.





The cell did not really get warm, the protection circuit tripped before I could draw enough current to really heat the cell.















Conclusion

With larger size LiIon batteries there is not much extra capacity, but the voltage stays high for longer.

Performance is as expected for this size battery.

Those cells seem to have no future with rumours of Tesla 2170’s being over 5000 mAh :v

Btw, HKJ, do you have any 2170’s on your hands? E.g. Samsung ones that are already released.

That sounds rather optimistic and will probably mean lower current (I.e. below 20A). The voltage will probably also be lower than this cell.
Anyway the 32650 cells is mostly a curiosity with fairly limited applications.

Thanks HKJ. The old unprotected version of the Trustfire TF32650 still reigns king. They test @6700mAh, and with little sag at moderate currents. Unbelievably, my 4 cells are 3 years old and still remain balanced and stable. Perfect for my Fenix TK70 mod. Its hard to believe China created cells that Id actually recommend to others!

Do you have any idea which cells are beneath the Enerpower 32600 wrappers? I wonder how they would perform without the PC?
