So we have something solid to go on:
It's a 20Amper - another rewrapper overspeccing (another of my bug-bears). Don't know about you kreed, to me they're just repeating info from elsewhere and haven't actually done any tests yet.

Tells me the same thing - zero results, we're still testing. I'll be watching this, but I've got a feeling they may be 'cherry picking' for some decent results.


A lie, they've already stated they haven't tested capacity yet.

You know the more I look at ecolux the less I'm liking them. No disrespect but to put contradicting information like that is a massive boo-boo!

I'm glad it's not just me. May have been sounding like a fixation to other members, but as battery current goes up IR becomes more and more important.

You brought up the 25R, my spec sheet agrees, should have a an IR better than 30 milliohms. What you'd expect from a 20Amp battery right?

Then along comes the AWT claiming 35Amps with an IR of better than 80 milliohms. That is just so wrong, and in my mind bl**dy irresponsible. The two I received tested at 72 and 76 milliohms, whilst others have received samples which seem a lot more capable, but not confirmed by testing. Some kind of consistency problem there! 80 milliohms tells me they're expecting to sell poor cells, and/or they don't know where the next batch will actually be coming from.

My AWTs are now resigned to a life in the head torch.

Welcome aboard relic. I see glen has already warned you, so no excuse

There's a few been confuddled by that one. 'PCB over temperature protection' just protects the internal board from overheating. 'Temperature Control' - when it actually works - varies the power to your coil, to prevent overheating and burning.

Sounds like a poor contact between the battery and the charger. Give the contacts a good clean with a cotton bud and isopropyl alcohol (or nail varnish remover if you haven't any alcohol), let them dry for about 15 minutes then test again. The battery may take more charge, it may not.
