It's a little hard to follow because the info is spread throughout your replies.
So you have:
100x Samsung 26J rated for 2600mAh 5.2A that test at 2400-2500mAh?
100x Panasonic ??? rated for ??? that test at 2500-2600mAh?
500x Chinese FST "rated" for 2000mAh that average at 2016mAh?
yeah, i am sorry. yes it is pretty spread out mainly you and me typing
I have:
100x Samsung 26J 5.2A
100x Panasonic NCR18650 PF 10A
700x FST 2Ah under testing
I am not so sure about the tested cells i got thou. i did read somewhere that u should fully charge your cells, let them wait for some time (1hr) and then capacity test them. i tried it on my FST and doing it instantly you rated 100-150mah lower than if u let them stay rest at fully charged for 1 hour. I tested my samsung and panasonic this way too, the samsung was at 2611 and the panasonic almost 2800. i am not sure what i should do with this knowledge. i went and did the nor test once again after charging them and the samsung did turn out at 2507 (tested earlier at 2478) and the panaconic read at 2598 (don't remember earlier tested but something like that).
I mean, as long as they are paralel strings are balanced it's whatever i guess. if all cells are tested equally scewed in one direction or the other. but what i shall do with the calcualtion of the capacity, idk. do i manually need to retest them all again :?
