It is 20mm in diameter and 70mm long, a 20700 battery. Other sizes and designations for similar cells from other manufacturers include 20650 and 21-70.<\/p>\n<p>I am rating this cell at 15A 4000mAh. It runs a few degrees hotter than the HG2 (which is why the Sanyo has a lower rating) but at 10A and 20A continuous down to 3.2V the Sanyo lasts about 25% longer.<\/p>\n<p>There is also a Sanyo 20700A cell which is rated at 3100mAh and about 30A. You&#8217;d have the capacity of a VTC6\/30Q\/HG2 plus a 30A rating for just a small increase in battery size.<\/p>\n<p>Either of these Sanyo&#8217;s could be a very good choice to 3D print a custom battery sled for. City of Cloud was kind enough to send me a couple of their samples of the 20700B for this testing but no 20700A&#8217;s were available. I hope to get a couple of the 20700A&#8217;s soon.<\/p>\n<p>I don&#8217;t know if any of these larger cells will eventually replace the 18650 but the Sanyo 20700B is hopefully just the first alternative cell that I&#8217;ll be testing that offers a good current rating and extra capacity over our 18650&#8217;s for just a small increase in size.<\/p>\n<p>Test results, discharge graph, photos: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.e-cigarette-forum.com\/forum\/threads\/sanyo-20700b-4000mah-20700-bench-test-results-a-peek-at-the-future.775809\/\">https:\/\/www.e-cigarette-forum.com\/forum\/threads\/sanyo-20700b-4000mah-20700-bench-test-results-a-peek-at-the-future.775809\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p>All my test results to date: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.e-cigarette-forum.com\/forum\/blog-entry\/list-of-battery-tests.7436\/\">https:\/\/www.e-cigarette-forum.com\/forum\/blog-entry\/list-of-battery-tests.7436\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.tasteyourjuice.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/image-9-e1479894613112.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-14341\" src=\"http:\/\/www.tasteyourjuice.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/image-9-e1479894613112.jpeg\" alt=\"image\" width=\"600\" height=\"198\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.tasteyourjuice.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/image-10-e1479894658111.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-14342\" src=\"http:\/\/www.tasteyourjuice.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/image-10-e1479894658111.jpeg\" alt=\"image\" width=\"600\" height=\"695\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div style=\"padding-bottom:20px; padding-top:10px;\" class=\"hupso-share-buttons\"><!-- Hupso Share Buttons - https:\/\/www.hupso.com\/share\/ --><a class=\"hupso_toolbar\" href=\"https:\/\/www.hupso.com\/share\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/static.hupso.com\/share\/buttons\/dot.png\" style=\"border:0px; padding-top: 5px; float:left;\" alt=\"Share Button\"\/><\/a><script type=\"text\/javascript\">var hupso_services_t=new Array(\"Twitter\",\"Facebook\",\"Google Plus\",\"Pinterest\",\"Reddit\");var hupso_background_t=\"#EAF4FF\";var hupso_border_t=\"#66CCFF\";var hupso_toolbar_size_t=\"medium\";var hupso_image_folder_url = \"\";var hupso_url_t=\"\";var hupso_title_t=\"A%20BATTERY%20MOOCH%20POST%3A%20Sanyo%2020700B%204000mAh%2020700%20Bench%20Test%20Results...a%20peek%20at%20the%20future%3F\";<\/script><script type=\"text\/javascript\" src=\"https:\/\/static.hupso.com\/share\/js\/share_toolbar.js\"><\/script><!-- Hupso Share Buttons --><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bottom Line: This Sanyo is one of the new generation of slightly larger cylindrical cells being brought to the market primarily for automotive use.
