10 W
OK - just gave a single cell a bit more manly a test - I hooked it up to a car cigarette lighter - I'm not sure of the actual draw of this, but WikiPedia seems to think about 10a at 12v = 120W. The voltage sank to 3.19v immediately and the cell gave a constant 1.5-1.6A for 50 minutes before the voltage started to drop towards 3v and current tailed off to about 1.35A.
I stopped the test there as I didn't want to damage the cell. Once off load, the cell quickly recovered to 3.17v
The spec sheet for the cell (https://na4.salesforce.com/sfc/play/index.jsp?oid=00D6000000076DF&d=05D600000004CLYEA2) states a 1.4Ah capacity and a max continuous discharge of 2.7A
I reckon these cells are just fine. They are (cinema voice) "Hard to Kill"
