The 50s can according to Samsung push quite a lot of current, but those numbers are known to be a bit inflated. The cell will get very hot and the voltage will drop a lot. And it will degrade faster. (Fewer charge cycles)
On a semi-high P count i think it will be “perfect”.
I generally use the cheapest Lishen elements in the 11s 3p configuration. And when discharged to 3 volts, the battery does not heat up noticeably. By the way, what about the fact that Molicell greatly overstates the capacity? And the capacity of the P50b, measured in tests, is only 4600 mAh. Unlike Chinese tubless, the measured capacity of which coincides with the declared one.
I think there was a mention in a video of them using the “best cells available”. Similar to this thread - “the best cell” for a company selling a product also includes the price. People seem stoked on it with more run time, though I wonder how it they will hold up long term. With normal use 300 cycles will be out of the year warranty period.
I wonder if anyone has done any research on how many cycles it takes a cheap BMS with 80mA balancing currents to destroy a battery with expensive Molicell cells?
Hello,
I have been following this thread with interest since I am read to purchase new cells. I was using samsung30q but now e.g. molicel p50b appear to be the latest shit.
I learned that there are many fake cells in the market and wanted to ask if someone could recommend a reliable source for Europe/Germany.
I assume NKON is the most reliable source in EU: Molicel INR21700-P50B 5000mAh - 50A…_gsMQ…&gclid=CjwKCAjw6s7CBhACEiwAuHQckroTtyzisCanTfPVKrMmOP1sm72VrO_Wa5Offd3QZt-psKACyX-gzhoCjpAQAvD_BwE&gbraid=0AAAAAD1QO9gJ93XFKOV9IhTpCqnWy3pvF
But always have a detailed look. They also sell cells with reduced cycles or disassembled one. At least the disassembled on get also used quite a lot (those are unused, just disassembled due to battery block manufactuing issues or something like that)
