A BATTERY MOOCH POST: Golisi S35 40A 3750mAh 21700…overrated but performs better than the iJoy 21700
This Golisi cell performed a lot better than the iJoy 40A 3750mAh 21700, especially at higher current levels, but it is overrated.
I haven’t compared its performance directly against the popular 20700’s and 20650’s but will be doing a shootout with all of them soon. I don’t know which cell Golisi is wrapping for this 21700.
This Golisi is badly overrated at 40A but is a true 30A cell, running just slightly hotter than the average of other cells at their rating. This can be handled by just rating it at 29A but this cell is within the acceptable temperature range for a 30A rating.
The wrap says “IMR 21700” but I’m pretty sure this cell doesn’t use the chemistry associated with the IMR model number prefix.
This cell delivered 3714mAh and 3822mAh in my capacity tests. Since the rating must be lower than what any cell delivers it’s not quite a 3750mAh cell.
I am rating this Golisi S35 at 30A and 3700mAh.
Two cells were donated for the purposes of testing by Golisi (www.golisi.com). Thank you!

HEAT NOT BURN NOT GOOD?
Just in from Dr. Farsalinos:
Recently, a study abstract and poster presented at the American Heart Association (AHA) Scientific Sessions 2017 evaluated the acute effects of exposing mice to a heated tobacco product (IQOS) on endothelial function in comparison with a tobacco cigarette (1,2). The study found that IQOS had “the same adverse effects” on Flow-Mediated Dilatation (FMD), a marker of endothelial function, as the tobacco cigarette. The abstract concluded that “Use of HNB tobacco products does not necessarily avoid the adverse cardiovascular effects of smoking cigarettes”. An accompanying press statement concluded with a similar statement: “Using heat-not-burn products may not avoid the adverse cardiovascular effects of smoking cigarettes” (3).

NEW FROM REGULATOR WATCH – Dripping Contempt | Ontario Liberals Move To Crush Vaping
Here’s the latest from Brent Stafford at Regulator Watch:
It’s war, that’s what representatives from the Canadian vaping industry say following the Ontario Liberals sudden and shockingly obstinate legislative position on vaping.
Dashing to capitalize on recreational cannabis, the Ontario Liberals introduced Bill 174, which strategically wraps tobacco, cannabis and vaping together into a single law in order to limit consultation and handcuff opposition to other sections of the bill.
The tactic is well planned as Bill 174 drips with contempt for vapour products and shows utter disdain for the consumer that relies on vaping as a safer alternative to smoking.
What’s in Bill 174 and could it be stopped? Find out—only on RegWatch by RegulatorWatch.com.
