This thread needs to be stickied so it can be easy to find. I tore apart some laptop battery packs last week. I’m new to this and this was my first tear down. I’m not sure what capacity these batteries are. Maybe one of you guys could figure it out? Working Pull. Sanyo UR18650Y L43C Light Red, Green tip. Toshiba PA3534U-1BRS 10.8v 4000mAh. 6 cells Test 3.53v Working Pull. Samsung ICR18650-26C Pink, White tip. Dell Type WW116 11.1v capacity 56wh. 6 cells Test 3.99v Working Pull. Samsung ICR18650-22F Light Green, White tip. HP 485041-002 10.8v 47wh. 6 cells Test 2.53v Non Working Pull (Wouldn’t Charge). Samsung ICR18650-20B Light Blue, White tip. High Capacity Power Products aftermarket for Sony Vaio, 14.8v 4000mah 8 cells. 2 cells Test 0.00v DEAD! 6 cells Test 3.77v Non Working Pull (Wouldn’t Charge). Sanyo UR18650F Light Red, White tip. Gateway 600YGR 3UR18650F-3-QC-7 11.1v 5700mAh. 9 cells Test 2.59v

Sanyo UR18650Y spec'd to 2000mAh
Samsung ICR18650-26C spec'd to 2600mAh
Samsung ICR18650-22F spec'd to 2200mAh
Samsung ICR18650-20B spec'd to 2000mAh
For those UR18650F's I'd say they're 1900mAh granted they came out of a 9-cell pack.

Here's a post in the Buried Treasure thread that should help some bit when hunting for cells in laptop packs.
