    mass life cycle testing

    Exciting thread. 8) I'm planning to do about the same. But DIY arduino tester controlled via PC software. Data logging to dropbox. Software will look something like this: Cells waiting: Heter Lifepo4 LG ABB41865 LG GBMG11865 MG1 LG ICR18650-HE2 LG MJ1 Panasonic 18650PF Panasonic NCR18650B...

    Good batteries for rebuilding laptop battery pack

    Replaced the Dell vostro cells voltage still above 2v without disconnecting. Laptop shows not above 7% but still works full capacity charge/discharge 0-100%. NCR18650A cells. So yeah very sneaky chips they are. Other option are directly powering laptop to AC side with DIY battery and own BMS or...

    Spot welder doesn't work with 0.15mm pure nickel

    I have 787A+ Sometimes If i switch on the welder it welds very poorly. Strangely sometimes when i switch it off and on again then suddenly all welds doing ok. Max is 0.15 pure nickel or barely 0.2mm ni-plated steel. I use multiple layer 0.1mm pure nickel just to be sure. And solder extra copper...

    Highest capacity 18650 cells

    ~95% us use about 10 different cells max i think. I have ~20 different cells waiting for cycle testing over 2 years now. Start testing when i retire from work. So first test is like aging test running now :)

    Highest capacity 18650 cells

    LG INR18650-M36 has 3600mAh label just for getting your attention. 3500mAh 35E etc have still bigger capacity in test results and are lighter in weight too! Fake 4K TVs and now THIS, cmon LG :evil: Cycle life is the most important parameter i think but strangely we still have so less...

    Cycle Life tests or experience with Panasonic NCR18650GA vs LG MJ1 vs Samsung INR18650-35E

    What you are talking about? PF is 2.3€/qty and you have to buy 540pcs to get this price 29E is 2.14€/qty if you buy 200pcs. Shipping to Europe is always about 15€ even if you buy thousands of them. Tumich sells 29E ~2.10€/pcs inc shipping. Little bit cheaper but buying from Nkon store should be...

    If you are building packs today, which cells to choose?

    29E has this very rare LiNiCoO2 chemistry that never seen in 18650 cells. Very curious to know what cells wins cycle test. :)

    If you are building packs today, which cells to choose?

    Interesting, have to test this. But you cant go wrong with 25R cells? 2.35€ @ nkon :)

    If you are building packs today, which cells to choose?

    Very good 35E price (3.1€) right now from nkon https://eu.nkon.nl/rechargeable/18650-size/samsung-inr18650-35e.html Very curios about cycle life vs PF cell. In electric car, cycle life matters 7x more!
