Hi there :)
I made i list of 10440 li-ion batteries, which I found on the internet. Of course if some batteries are missing in the list, tell me :)

Now it would be very good if someone, who has some of these batteries, make test and post results, so we can compare them (I searched the internet and I found only one or two tests of 10440).
The best would be test them with 100mA (cca 0,2C), 300mA (cca 1C) and 700mA (cca 2C) discharge current.

I want to order some 10440 for my Tank007 E09 and test them, but I want to take some version which nobody tested :)
E.g. Patlight, Yezl, Mars or Efest IMR.

There is link for the table:http://uloziste.zaridi.to/10440.xlsx :grin2:

Where did you order the AW and how they are marked? Because I found on the internet 3 types of li-ion marked as AW :/

Hi,

I registred on CPF around 2006 but it seems my account has been deleted, since I wasn't active enough I think !

I just bought 2 protected Ultrafire (grey/black, LC10440), and I may be able to perform tests between 100 and 1000mA, if you want (got a small cheapo Imax B6 clone).

I'm still unsure I am willing to make tests aver 1C, anyway I'll monitor the temp !

I got mine from RTDVapor.com. RTDvapor is run by an incredibly good guy and he's an authorized AW seller. he has both the IMR 10440s by AW and the 'regular' 10440s by AW as well :)

OK, and how they are marked? (what is written on the batteries...)

Hmm. I found on the one forum, that someone ordered also AW 10440 directly from AW and he got HL 10440 340mA.
Maybe they upgraded them...

I've done a few discharge test on my Ultrafire LC10440 "500mAh" (charged to 4,2 @300mA)

- 700mA => 251mAh
- 300mA => 260mAh



- 100mA => 272mAh

Capacity seems quite low, especially considering the 500mAh rating. Hope I can buy some AW 10440 where I live !

I've tried a second discharge @700mA, this time capacity was 253mAh, and here you can see the voltage curves vs discharge @300mA :

I use the Trustfire gray and black and they fit tight on my L0D but work great and are protected... I think really capacity is near 300 not the 600 it says.

What do you consider the best 10440 on the list?

Thanks a lot :) :thumbsup:

Capacity around 260mAh is good when you see that max AW capacity is 350mAh :)
List updated!

I also changed the OP, because I forgot that some chargers doesn't have so accurate settings of discharge current...

Nothing more? I hoped that there will be more people with these batteries :(

I can do more mesuring on my 2 Ultrafire if you want ;)
Do you think more measuring on the already measured batteries? I think that it's OK, but if really you want ;)

benik, if youre in the USA i'll send you an AW 10440
Sorry, I'm from Czech Republic...

But it looks, that I will have the Pathlight, Mars, Yezl and Efest batteries for measuring ;)
But it will take some time from the China...

Yep, I only own these two Ultrafire in 10440 size.
What kind of mesurement do you want ? I'd rather not try further than 700mA (discharge), I'm not so confident in their ability to deliver high current :poof: !
(they are more around 350mAh than 500mAh, so 700mA is already 2C)

Since you live in Czech Republic and I live in Europe too, I can send them to you if you want, it's cheap.

Yes, 700mA max (what I saw, 2C is max rated current for not IMR 10440 batteries).
So if you want, you can add the 500mA measuring :)
