Tabless design cylindrical cells tests

Check this video testing the new EVE 50PL.
I know I do not have the correct equipment and I will have a lot of criticism but I cant wait to test the cell and I did it what what I have until @CamLight , @Pajda and @Doctorbass receive the cells. I already shipped to @CamLight and @Doctorbass. waiting in more information from Pajda to shipped to him.

The cell perform amazingly in my opinion. The cables heat up and the resistors I have as well so the resistance was reduced quickly. Temp sensor was lose at the end because the heat but in my book I accomplish my commitment that have at least an idea of what the cell was capable to do.

Now lets wait for the pros for their numbers.

Thank you for sending some out to the pros for testing! It will be really interesting to see how they stack up in comparison to the other tabless cells but the voltage drop in your test looked crazy good. I wonder when Ampace, BAK and Samsung are going to release their 5ah offering

Actually, it was not so long ago when a load capable of 125 A was absolutely sufficient for a short circuit safety test of a cell in that format. :cool: Great work! @ZEUS-FL

 
I am waiting for CBA to have the Equalizer in stock to buy one 1000W version to be able to test up to 200A.
When you think about it !!! 125A form a single cell in that size is insane.
 
Just to share more information about the size weight and comparing next to the EVE 40PL

Looking at this 21700 cell, the discharge claims are a bit wild: -25C/125A to -36C/180A discharge pulses from a single cell.

No mention of cycle life, though at this point, adding a "Not for cycle life" disclaimer would probably be redundant.

For reference, the EVE 58E cycle life data is >70% capacity after 500 cycles at 100% DOD under -1C/5.6A discharge and +0.5C/2.8A charge, given 10 minutes rest after charge and 30 minutes after discharge.

The 50PL vs. 50D vs. JP50 match ought to be a hot one!

This is getting spicy !!!
 
Damn, not bad!
 
I tested the EVE 50PL sent by ZEUS-FL and I was impressed by the result. At 10C ( 50A ) and minimal air flow I was capable discharging these from 100-0% and got 4750mAh(10C) capacity out of the standard 4900mA at C/5.

I also got interesting ACIR and DCIR results. ACIr 2,88miliohms at 50% SOC and 22 degree C You can compare with the P45B

Small update

Update:
- more cycles in 5C charts

News:
- Unfortunately, my EVE 50PL results will not be available anytime soon as I was unable to get samples. Many thanks to @ZEUS-FL :bigthumb: who tried hard to find a way how to send samples to my country, but it didn't work.
- But at least I was able to order samples of Ampace JP30 (18650 tabless), they should arrive in 2-3 weeks.
 
Has anyone tried ordering the BAK 60D ?

From what I know, this looks like the only usable 6Ah 21700 cell on the market (3C/5.8C) and one of the first to be officially announced and listed on a big company website.

Nice find! I've spoken to @ZEUS-FL in the comments of one of his videos and I believe he has the 30D and 60D on their way (I assume preproduction) for testing. It's listed in the tabless section so it will be very interesting to see how it performs in comparison to the other lower capacity tabless on the market, even though it states 35A max the IR looks very promising. It might have just outclassed the P60B before we even see it!
 
Yes @ZEUS-FL has the divine power :cool: to obtain and torture samples of new cells before they enter mass production. For us mere mortals, that means several months of waiting.
Haha! I wish that was true, Pajda 😄 I'm just lucky and very persistent. Believe it or not, I tried twice to send the cells to you and both times customs blocked the shipment before it even left the U.S. I really did everything I could, but it seems international shipping has its own plans sometimes.


Really looking forward to seeing what you do with the JP30s once they arrive your charts always bring a whole new level of insight to the conversation!

Have you maybe tried with ground shipping? Iirc only air shipping was an issue for batteries.

Wow performance looks incredible! I understand that you are not sure about it but what else could perform at this level?
Nothing, if I had an opinion I could express. But I am just not able to say it’s definitely the 50PL as that wouldn’t be true and exposes me legally. Even if I offer just an opinion and someone blows themselves up, even if their fault, I’ll still be named in the lawsuit for sure.

Each person can reach their own decision though. 🙂
