Parkside INR18650E 2000mAh (Blue)
Official specifications:
- Capacity: 2000mAh
- Nominal voltage: 3.7V
- Type: LiIon
- Voltage for 5: 20V
The batteries has been removed from a unused Parkside 2.0 PAP 20 A1 battery pack.
The marks from the spot welded strips are visible.
There is a small difference in capacity between the two cells.
The 30A discharge went wrong, on cell was terminated due to temperature, the other cell terminated itself, i.e. a fuse inside the cell disabled it.
Conclusion
The cells looks fairly good, they are obvious not for 30A, but 20A looks fine.
