Only in one review: Current 25 A (CATL LiNiCoMnO2 3.7V 50Ah); Energy 200 Wh (CATL LiNiCoMnO2 3.7V 50Ah); Price 20.3 $ (Liitokala LiFePO4 32 Ah cell).

CATL LiNiCoMnO2 3.7V 50Ah: The cells delivered over 52 Ah even at a 90 A discharge, but became slightly thicker after testing.

Liitokala LiFePO4 32 Ah cell: Handles loads up to 40 A well, but capacity is about 24 Ah rather than the claimed 32 Ah; the welded tabs are questionable.
