I thought I had 12 Li-Ion 18650 cells...boy was I disappointed.
I had pulled them from a medical grade battery pack at work that someone had binned. I hadn't explicitly compared or measured each cell, I had only ASSumed that they were the same size as a group of cells I had pilfered from another pack that truly were 18650s but were only 1.2V. When it came time to put them into my flashlight...they wouldn't fit.
They appear to be 19mm in diameter and about 63mm in length. It can't be a 19670, because it's shorter than the 18650 I have in my hand at the same time. They do charge well and hold that charge, but I have nothing to use them in at the moment.
The only markings on the cell is a large, dark "C", and the text QANFJ32 above the numbers 027856.
...any ideas? What the heck is the red cell?
