• Max. discharge current Vs. time: 30-40A > 80 seconds, 50A > 40 seconds, 60A > 30 seconds, 80A > 15 seconds, 100A > 8 seconds (Temp limit 80°C)
• Initial impedance: 7 - 15mOhm
• Weight: Approx: 45.5 +/- 1.5g
• Operating temperature: Charging 0°C ~45°C, discharging -20°C ~ 60°C
• Storage temperature: -5°C ~ 35°C
• Cycle life: >300 cycles at 0.5C charge/discharge.

This is very high current batteries.











Very good discharge curves, the two cells tracks perfectly and capacity is nearly constant up to 20A.







Even at 30A the temperature raise is acceptable, but they do get hot.















Conclusion

For anybody that want to play with 30A or even more from a single cell, this is the cell, but the capacity is a bit limited.

This is a very good high current cell.
