BATTERY MOOCH

I would like to personally welcome Battery Mooch to TasteYourJuice.com.

“Mooch” is well known in the industry as the “battery guy” and is quite popular on the ECF. I’ve worked with Mooch several times in the background and he’s always been quite helpful and knowledgeable in answering my questions.

Although I have some experience with battery testing, Mooch has all the experience I lack so I though it a good fit to offer him his own page here on TasteYourJuice.com.

If you look to the left, you’ll see the new Battery Mooch page under Information/Resources. His first article can be found there as well.

WELCOME MY FRIEND!

Who is Battery Mooch?

My name is John Muchow, some of you may know me as Mooch on ECF and FB and Mooch315
on ECR. I have been vaping since April, 2015 and haven’t smoked once since I
started!

I was born and raised in New York City and still live there now. Since 1992 I have
been designing and building electronic devices for a large number of clients. My
first products were camera remote-control systems for sports photographers. As these
systems, and other devices, transitioned from wired to wireless the performance of
the batteries they used was very important as there was no way to replace them
during use. This led to me doing more and more battery testing and developing the
electronics to charge, test, and protect them.

As battery technology advanced, from NiCd to NiMH to Li-Ion and now
ultracapacitor/Li-Ion hybrids, the devices I built and the battery testing I did
advanced along with them. I started specializing in power management electronics;
battery chargers, energy harvesters (for charging from heat, light, or
vibration/movement), power supplies, battery analyzers, electronic loads for battery
discharging, and battery management/protection systems. This is the work I still do
today.

My clients have included the US Army, National Geographic, Sports Illustrated,
Eastman Kodak Company, and hundreds of other companies from large to small. Part of
the work I’ve done for a lot of my clients has been battery testing. Sometimes they
want to recommend a good battery to their customers. Other times they’re batteries I
have chosen to combine with my electronics to form a complete, protected power
source for them to incorporate into their products.

Depending on my client’s requirements this testing can take up to several weeks to
complete. I use a subset of these tests when evaluating the batteries we use when
vaping. This includes continuous-current tests to establish the battery’s true (and
safe) ratings. They also help to determine if there’s any risk of venting if one of
our mods autofires or a mechanical mod’s button is accidentally pressed. The
pulse-current tests measure the degree of voltage sag we would see when vaping at
different current levels. Both types of tests are done the same way for every set of
batteries I test.

This consistency in the testing allows for direct comparison of the performance of
different batteries even if the pulse discharging I do doesn’t match the way you
vape.

Safety is my number one priority. While I often test at discharge current levels
that can result in unsafe battery temperatures, this is the only way to figure out
what a battery’s true and safe ratings are. No battery is totally safe but we can
certainly avoid taking unnecessary risks.

My blog at ECF has the results of all my testing and a few articles on batteries,
battery safety, etc.:

https://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/blogs/mooch.256958/

I have also listed the equipment I use and the steps I follow when testing. This
allows anyone to replicate my tests if they want to:

My battery test results offer you a resource you can use when choosing a battery
that will not only be safer for the way you vape but will also give you great
performance.

I’m looking forward to contributing to TasteYourJuice.com and I want to thank
PBusardo for the opportunity to help spread the word on exaggerated battery ratings
and battery safety!

Latest Battery Updates

A BATTERY MOOCH POST: Efest 10A 5000mAh 21700…only 7.3A 4900mAh but good performer

Though Efest has overrated this cell a bit it is a good performer, beating the 10A Samsung 48G and 15A Sanyo NCR20700B for total vaping time at low power levels, under 7A/20W. It appears to be a rewrap of the LG M50 cell.

The two cells I tested delivered 4900mAh and 4957mAh at 1.0A (0.2C) down to 2.5V. Neither cell met its 5000mAh rating. Every cell should easily beat the capacity spec as it’s just a minimum guaranteed value. It should not be the maximum you can expect if you’re lucky.

LG rates the M50 at 4849mAh minimum to 5014mAh typical though so this Efest still meets LG’s specs.

I am estimating this Efest’s ratings to be 7.3A and 4900mAh. 

Two cells were donated for the purposes of testing by Brad’s Vapor (https://www.bradsvapor.com). Thank you!

A BATTERY MOOCH POST: Aspire 35A 3000mAh 18650…preposterously overrated, incorrect Aspire data

This one made me angry. Aspire has a good reputation so my expectations were high. But for this cell they decided to roll us back a couple years and use a hugely exaggerated current rating without mentioning it is some sort of “pulse” rating. 

The wrap on this cell just says “35A”. We can only assume, since there is no (useless) “max” or pulse” designation, that it means this cell is rated to 35A even for a continuous discharge. Except that during a continuous discharge at that level the cell gets hot enough to boil water and one cell failed during its first discharge at 35A.

Some other concerns…

A paper insert included with the cell seems to indicate that they are claiming this cell has a continuous rating of 20A. A “Vaping Simulation” rating of 30A is also given by them on the insert. Where does the 35A rating on the wrap come from then?

What happens if this paper insert is lost or cells are taken out of their boxes for display in a shop? There would be no indication as to how exaggerated the 35A number on the wrap was.

The discharge graph for this cell on Aspire’s web site, now deleted but included below, showed temperatures about 20°C lower than I measured, a huge difference. I am unable to explain this. The temperatures on Aspire’s discharge graph don’t match those on their paper insert either.

The four cells I tested delivered 2944mAh, 2964mAh, 2989mAh, and 3077mAh at 0.6A (0.2C) down to 2.5V. Only one of the four met its 3000mAh rating. One other came close though. But every cell should easily beat the capacity spec as it’s just a minimum guaranteed value. It should not be the maximum you can expect.

These cells performed a bit worse than LG HG2’s but it’s probably not noticeable in a regulated mod. The shorter run time of this Aspire versus a 30Q or VTC6 might be noticeable though.

I am estimating this Aspire’s ratings at 20A and 2900mAh. It appears to be a China manufactured cell, probably from Long Deli New Energy Company, Ltd., which Aspire has used before.

Immediately after testing I fired off an email to Aspire basically yelling at them for all the things mentioned above. We spent a lot of time talking and I agreed to include a statement from them in this test report. I’m happy to say that they are willing to take the unsold stock of this battery and rewrap them all with more accurate ratings.

Four cells were donated for the purposes of testing by Aspire (http://www.aspirecig.com). Thank you!

A BATTERY MOOCH POST: Sony VT4 (not VTC4)…a 20A 2000mAh battery, VTC4 performs better, might be lower grade cells

This is the VT4, not the VTC4. While both are similarly rated the VT4 didn’t perform as well.

The two cells I tested delivered 2130mAh and 2156mAh at 0.4A (0.2C) down to 2.5V. This cell’s rated capacity is 2000mAh and its nominal capacity rating is 2100mAh. I try to use the rated capacity as that is the guaranteed minimum but I think most of them will deliver 2100mAh (at low current levels).

The two cells ran a little hot at 22A in my testing for that to be their continuous rating. I am estimating this Sony’s ratings to be 20A and 2100mAh.

While these are not bad performing cells at all the VTC4 performs better at 10A and much better at 20A. Considering the high internal resistance I measured for the VT4’s they could be lower grade cells as Sony does not overrate.

A BATTERY MOOCH POST: Vapcell Gold 30A 3100mAh 20700 Testing Update

A quick recap: It appears that Vapcell is now wrapping a lower current rated cell, estimated in the 20A-25A range.

What I am doing now: I have received four cells I ordered from Liion Wholesale and four more I ordered from Illumn are on the way. I have also received two from Eciggity (arranged by Vapcell) and four more are being sent by Economy Ecigs Distro, the ones who sent me the first set of lower rated cells.

No cells are being sent directly from Vapcell. No cell will be accepted without the clear outer heat shrink added when they were initially wrapped. I am confident that none of the cells I am testing have been “cherry picked” but, if true, it is easily confirmed by comparing their performance to the others. If any company ever tries crap like that there will be hell to pay.

I am making this retesting a priority.

I will be doing physical examinations and AC and DC internal resistance, capacity, and discharge testing of these fourteen cells to try to figure out what the hell is going on.

This is going to take a lot of work so my response time to the questions I get every day will get longer. Please, be patient.

As soon as I have more information I will post it.

Please do not send me pictures asking me what version of this cell you have. Compare your cells to the pictures I have posted. If you are not sure, assume they are rated 20A.

This and another recent incident, to be posted about soon, have pushed me far enough. I’m not happy about the abuse I am taking from every angle just because these companies are using exaggerated ratings, inconsistent performing cells (they often don’t even know about), switching cells, or using lower grade Samsung, Sony, etc., cells whenever they want.

New ratings methods for China manufactured cells are being created. If companies want to use these cells, fine. But the ratings will reflect the actual inconsistency of their performance. I imagine lots of people will be pissed off with the new ratings but this is the hand we have been dealt by these companies. More info about this in a week or two.

Dammit…

 

A BATTERY MOOCH POST: Golisi S26 25A 2600mAh 18650…almost accurately rated, useless “max” rating, good performer

While this cell has a useless large 35A “max” current rating on the wrap it has an accurate continuous current rating. Its capacity rating is slightly exaggerated though.

I am thrilled that the continuous discharge rating (CDR) is mentioned on the wrap but I hate seeing the use of a “max” current rating. I hope Golisi removes the max rating soon.

The four cells I tested delivered 2577mAh, 2580mAh, 2586mAh, and 2600mAh at 0.5A down to 2.5V. Only of the four met its 2600mAh rating and barely at that.

These cells performed pretty well. While the Sony VTC5A outperforms it for the first half of a 25A discharge this cell matches the VTC5A for the rest.

I am estimating this Golisi’s ratings at 25A and 2550mAh.

Golisi wanted our community to know that they have product liability insurance for their batteries. I don’t know the specifics of what benefits this offers to vapers or vendors. Contact Golisi for more information.

A BATTERY MOOCH POST: Golisi S32 30A 3200mAh…almost accurately rated but useless “max” rating, similar to Vapcell gold 30A 3100mAh

While this cell has a useless large 40A “max” current rating on the wrap it has an accurate continuous current rating. Its capacity rating is slightly exaggerated though.

I am thrilled that the continuous discharge rating (CDR) is mentioned on the wrap but I hate seeing the use of a “max” current rating, particularly when it’s printed a lot larger than the CDR. I hope Golisi removes the max rating soon.

The two cells I tested delivered 3112mAh and 3181mAh at 0.5A down to 2.5V.

A BATTERY MOOCH POST: Imren Gold 25A 3750mAh 21700…accurately rated but useless “max” rating

While this cell has a useless large 40A “max” current rating on the wrap it has accurate continuous current and capacity ratings. In fact, the current rating is conservative compared to other wrappers of similar China-manufactured cells. This is great to see! It helps to improve safety, performance, and cell life.

I am thrilled that the continuous discharge rating (CDR) is mentioned on the wrap but I hate seeing the use of a “max” current rating, particularly when it’s printed a lot larger than the CDR. I hope Imren removes the max rating soon.

The two cells I tested delivered 3785mAh and 3919mAh at 0.5A down to 2.5V.

These cells performed well, essentially equal to the Golisi S35 and Efest purple 35A 3700mAh 21700’s.
