A very high capacity cell in the new 21700 format.











The discharge curves tracks nicely and the battery has lots of capacity, but it is not a high current cell.



At 15A I have to stop the discharge early due to temperature





At 30A it gets hot fairly fast.















Conclusion

This battery has very good capacity, but is best used at 10A or lower for continuous usage.
