LG 18650 HD4 2100mAh (Orange)







Official specifications:

  • Nominal voltage: 3.6V

  • Maximum voltage: 4.2V

  • Maximum continuous discharge current: 25A



This is a high current battery from some years ago.










Very nice discharge curves







30A is too much for the battery it get rather hot.















Conclusion

This was a very good tool battery in its time, today batteries have more capacity and some batteries are a bit better for high current.



Notes and links

Vapcell told me that I was missing some cells in my comparator and they would be happy to supply them.
