This cells looks and performs identically to the great performing Molicel P26A.

Xtar rates this cell at 25A continuous and 35A “max pulse discharge”. While both ratings are spelled out on the wrap in tiny text a different larger “35A” is much more clearly seen on another part of the wrap. I prefer to just see the continuous current rating shown this way to allow for direct comparison between cells.

The Molicel datasheet for the P26A only lists a 35A “maximum discharging current” rating with a temperature cutoff of 80°C. This means you can use the P26A at up to 35A as long as the cell stays below 80°C. This should be easy to do as 80°C is frakkin’ hot. Just realize that a malfunctioning or autofiring device could easily exceed this temperature by a LOT if you are set up to vape at 35A.

I am giving this cell a 25A continuous current rating since that is as high as you can go while not exceeding the 80°C cutoff. This matches Xtar’s 25A continuous rating. To extend cell life, minimize voltage sag, and increase your safety margin, I recommend staying at 25A or under per cell. That’s about 75W.

The two cells I tested delivered 2624mAh and 2625mAh. This is fantastic consistency.

Two cells were donated for the purposes of testing by Xtar (http://www.xtar.cc). Thank you!

I want to work for the vaping community full time! If you feel what I do is worth a couple dollars a month and you would like early access to battery availability and testing news and a say in what I test then please consider becoming a patron and supporting my testing efforts: https://www.patreon.com/batterymooch

These tests only note the ESTIMATED ratings for these batteries at the time I tested them. Any battery that is not a genuine Samsung, Sony, Murata, LG, Panasonic, Molicel, or Sanyo can change at any time! This is one of the hazards of using “rewrapped” batteries or batteries from other manufacturers so carefully research any battery you are considering using before purchasing.

Misusing or mishandling lithium-ion batteries can pose a SERIOUS RISK of personal injury or property damage. They are not meant to be used outside of a protected battery pack. Never exceed the battery’s continuous current rating and keep the plastic wrap and top insulating ring in perfect condition.

Any rating in my ratings tables can change at any time as different grade cells appear on the market, we get swamped with fakes, or new information becomes available to me. Please, never assume that the ratings in the tables are permanent and will never change! Always download the latest version before considering any cell purchase.

In case you missed it, CASAA started a new feature this year by posting semi-daily “Heads Up” alerts with news and opinion regarding issues facing consumer access to safer nicotine and tobacco products.

Here’s the latest from Brent Stafford at Regulator Watch:

It’s mostly a cliché to say time is a precious commodity: of course, it is.
We all live under the specter of imminent demise. But cruel is life when someone or something intervenes and pronounces an abrupt end, thus stealing away time so vital to life and business.

In this episode of RegWatch we present a practical guide to the FDA’s onerous Premarket Tobacco Application process which—thanks to a recent court ruling—is now due in less than 10-months. It seems that time, for the U.S. vaping industry, could be coming to an end.

Is it possible to survive the PMTA process?

Hello my name is Phil from the UK and this message I didn’t think I would be writing a few years ago.
I started vaping 6 years ago and have religiously kept vaping although tempted by cigarettes I didn’t give in.
Initially I vaped 24mg and over the years have reduced it significantly to what it is now at less than 1mg as I’m a big fan of home brew e-liquid.
As it stands now I can go a few days without thinking about vaping and have taken the decision to stop completely which I have to say is a big success for vaping as it was the best viable alternative and was ultimately the main reason to start.
I do have to say that my journey in vaping from pen style kits to sub ohm tanks and RDA also RTA including coil building to tips and tricks has been helped tremendously by people like yourself and I’m writing this to say thank you so much for your help because I will not need to subscribe to vaping channels in the near future however I will be watching them for a few more weeks and don’t want you to think you have done anything wrong for me to unsubscribe.
Vaping has been a success story for me and hope other people stop smoking as a direct result.

Many Thanks

Phil

Hey Phil, I’m not one of those people who make public posts and tag you, but I still just wanted to send a quick THANK YOU! Today is exactly 7 years without a cigarette and while I’ve been vaping for about 10 years it never stuck for the first 3 years due to those crappy cig-a-like things, and it was discovering your videos that introduced me to Boge cartos, carto tanks and real devices that finally allowed me to completely kick smoking.

Here’s the latest from Brent Stafford at Regulator Watch:

Mountains of paperwork, clinical trials, endless frustration and most of all, heartbreak.
This describes the onerous Premarket Tobacco Application process (or PMTA) now thrust upon the vaping industry by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration: it could destroy vaping as we know it.

In this RegWatch preview regulatory lawyer and FDA compliance expert Deanna Clark-Esposito shares insight into the PMTA process and talk through some of the challenges to surviving the PMTA deadline.
