This is a high current 26650 from German
The battery has fairly constant capacity with load and the 15A rating looks fine enough, but there is some difference between the two batteries.
At 15A the temperature is warm, but still reasonable.
Conclusion
The cell has very good performance at high current for a 26650 and the capacity is also fairly good.
