⚠️ Commonly Overlooked Points & Frequent Misconceptions

❌ “Higher mAh is always better”

Higher capacity cells often come with higher internal resistance. In high‑current systems, this can result in less usable energy due to voltage sag and heat loss.

❌ Pulse rating equals continuous rating

Pulse discharge figures are not suitable for thermal or lifetime design. Always size packs based on continuous current.

❌ Ignoring consistency in bulk procurement

Mixing cells with wide IR or capacity spreads increases balancing losses and shortens overall pack life, even if individual cells meet spec.

✔ Correct approach

Define load profile first, then select capacity and C‑rate together—not separately.

❓ FAQ – 18650 2000mAh 3.7V 15C Lithium Ion Battery

1. What does “15C” mean in battery terms?

“15C” refers to the maximum continuous discharge rate of 15 times the battery’s capacity. For a 2000mAh battery, 15C = 30A continuous discharge, ideal for high-power applications.

2. Is this battery safe for DIY or commercial packs?

Yes, but due to its high current rating, this unprotected cell must be used with a reliable BMS or protection circuit in packs. We also offer protected or PCM-integrated versions upon request.

3. What charger should I use for this battery?

Use a Li-ion charger rated for 3.7V cells. Recommended charging at 0.5C–1C (1000–2000mA). Avoid overcharging beyond 4.2V.

4. Can I buy in bulk with custom options?

Absolutely. We support bulk OEM/ODM orders with custom tab welding, pack configuration, shrink wrapping, labeling, and more. Lead time:

  • Samples: 3–5 business days

  • Bulk production: 10–15 business days

5. What is the expected cycle life of this battery?

With proper charging and discharging protocols, you can expect to 500+ cycles, retaining ≥80% capacity.
