A BATTERY MOOCH POST: AWT 35A 4800mAh 21700…obscenely overrated, DO NOT BUY

Another AWT cell deserving a Do Not Buy recommendation for the outrageously exaggerated current rating on the wrap.

This appears to be a rewrap of the pre-production LG M50 which is rated at 10A. This AWT is identical in both appearance and performance to the M50.

Two cells were purchased by me for the purposes of testing.

I want to work for the vaping community full time!

These tests only note the ESTIMATED ratings for these batteries at the time I tested them. Any battery that is not a genuine Samsung, Sony, LG, Panasonic, or Sanyo can change at any time! This is one of the hazards of using “rewrapped” batteries or batteries from other manufacturers so carefully research any battery you are considering using before purchasing.

Misusing or mishandling lithium-ion batteries can pose a SERIOUS RISK of personal injury or property damage. They are not meant to be used outside of a protected battery pack. Never exceed the battery’s continuous current rating and keep the plastic wrap and top insulating ring in perfect condition.

Any rating in my ratings tables can change at any time as different grade cells appear on the market, we get swamped with fakes, or new information becomes available to me. Please, never assume that the ratings in the tables are permanent and will never change! Always download the latest version before considering any cell purchase.
