Official specifications: UltraFire%20SJ18650%206000mAh%20(Black)%202015-info

The cell is not surprisingly significantly below specified capacity. The promised protection is missing.

The wrapper says that the battery is protection, this is not correct.

UltraFire%20SJ18650%206000mAh%20(Black)%202015-Capacity

Not much capacity, especially not if you need a couple of amperes. This cell has less capacity than the 2014 version of the same cell. The two cells do track, but not very well.

Conclusion

A cheap cell in bad quality, but I did already know that before I tested the cell. The disassembly did also confirm it (see link below).
The rating is, of course, that it is a bad cell, but in another way than the red/silver Ultrafire I also disassembled. This cell is produced to be cheap, the red/silver is made from old cell.
