This cell has \u201c80A\u201d on the wrap. This is so much of an overrating all I can do is laugh. Even if we consider the 80A rating to be a useless \u201cpulse\u201d rating it\u2019s still grossly overrated. At 80A the voltage dropped to my 2.5V cutoff in a fraction of a second.<\/p>\n

The 4500mAh capacity of this cell is also exaggerated. It is a 4300mAh cell, at the most.<\/p>\n

The wrap has \u201cIMR26650\u201d on it but I do not know if this cell uses the chemistry associated with the IMR model number prefix.<\/p>\n

I am rating this Brillipower cell at 23A and 4300mAh. Now that we have better 26650\u2019s to choose from this Brillipower will be removed from my Recommended Batteries table.<\/p>\n

With all the other cells that are available to us, without this degree of overrating, this one is a terrible choice and earns a Do Not Buy recommendation from me.<\/p>\n

The two cells that were tested were purchased for that purpose by me.<\/p>\n
