Bottom Line: This Enook is preposterously overrated. At 35A, this cell’s rating, it ran for less than one second before plunging to 3.2V. Enook did the same kind of overrating with their 40A 3200mAh cell. These two are among the most overrated cells I have ever seen.
This Enook’s appearance is identical to the 10A 3300mAh Panasonic NCR18650GA but it has a lower capacity than the Panasonic and performs a bit worse. It could be a lower grade NCR18650GA.
I am rating this Enook at 10A and 3200mAh. The 18650 ratings table has been updated to include this cell.
IMPORTANT:
– There is no 18650 that can have a factory/manufacturer rating over 30A.
– There is no 3000mAh 18650 that can have a rating over 20A.
– There is no 3100mAh-3500mAh 18650 that can have a rating over 10A.
– There is no 18650 with a capacity rating over 3600mAh.
