@Namasaki - Seems like there is a new BASEN in TOWN. 5000mah. Can’t wait for MOOCH tests. Knowing what we know about 4500mah, I’d rather say continous discharge is more close to 25a like in previous version, which is still good.
I’ve been doing a lot of research lately on 26650 cells. I’ve found cells marked as 5000mah but usually the capacity is way over 5000. Usually around 5100-5300mah. I’ll post an info as soon as @barajabali wakes up and approves my pack
only 20a cont though. The basen 4500 26650’s are 30a cont.
Better to have the extra 10a discharge than the extra 500 mah capacity.
Also, Mooch did not prove the basen 4500’s to be 20-25a discharge.
I read his report and he concluded that he was guesstimating there continuous discharge rating because he did not test them for cont amp discharge, only pulse discharge.
I also contacted Basen and they are claiming 30a continuous.
Mooch did rate the Basen 4500’s as one of the top 5 tested.
