You’re not imagining things: I reviewed these batteries almost two years ago. But back then they were from Nkon; today’s ones are from AliExpress. A look at the batteries, some tests, and of course a comparison with the previous ones.

Batteries in this size aren't particularly rare, but these caught my attention because they're rated for a continuous discharge current of 15 A. As usual: a look at the cells, tests, graphs, and conclusions.

I got my hands on another batch of batteries from Vapcell, and today I’ll be taking a look at batteries in the relatively uncommon 14650 form factor. As usual, the review covers the inspection, measurements, tests in different operating modes, and conclusions.

I think the vast majority of people reading this have used a computer mouse. Like any device, mice sometimes break, but sometimes you can give them a second life.

I ordered these batteries for a friend and borrowed a few for testing, so I decided to put together a short review in case it might be useful. These batteries come up in the comments quite often, after all.

About five years ago, I published a review of a thermal imager, and now it’s time to update it. I looked at various models, but in the end decided on the HT-A2 from Hti. I ordered one, received it, used it for a while, and decided to put together a short review.

One of my readers sent me this battery, and I’m very grateful to him for it. It’s not brand-new and has a few quirks, but as always, you can find out more in the review.

There’s a discount on these TWS earbuds. I don’t use earbuds like these myself, since I mostly work from home, but judging by the reviews, there are no complaints about the quality. I thought they might come in handy for someone.

In my review of an inductive balancer, I mentioned that capacitive balancers also exist. They transfer energy from one cell to another by charging and discharging capacitors. These balancers usually cost more, but thanks to one of my readers, I got my hands on one.

I recently published a review of the Samsung INR21700-50G batteries, where I also wrote that these cells offered the best capacity/size/maximum current ratio. But I recently finished testing other batteries of the same size and realized I was wrong last time: it turns out there are batteries with even higher capacity and maximum current.

High-current batteries in the very unusual 20650 form factor caught my interest mainly because of their size, and partly because of their discharge current of up to 30 A. Tests, comparisons, all the usual stuff.

No, friends, you’re not experiencing déjà vu—I really did review Samsung INR18650-25S batteries before, but those were bought locally. Today I’m reviewing the same batteries, but these came from VapCell. I ordered them partly for comparison.

At last, the new product from RDtech that I’ve genuinely been waiting for for a long time has arrived—and I even posted its announcement. Is it really that interesting, and does it live up to expectations? I’m curious to find out.

The relatively uncommon 26650 form factor, a capacity of 4.2 Ah, and a current of up to 32 A—that's what today's review is about. As it turns out, these batteries are pretty decent, but as always, more details after the jump.

These batteries are neither high-current nor high-capacity, but they caught my interest because they’re rarely covered in reviews. I thought it was worth filling that gap.

I got these batteries for a review for two reasons: a request from readers and plain old curiosity. Although I had read a review of them before, this is the first time I’ve held them in my hands.

More genuine batteries sold by the Vapcell store—this time, the relatively new Samsung INR21700-50G cells, notable for their high capacity and discharge current of up to 14.7 A.

I’ve already reviewed quite a few different batteries, and in one review I mentioned that Sony/Murata also makes a high-capacity VC7 model. Now I’ve got these batteries in hand for testing.
