Is there any info/graph/tests on the actual mAH of the Tenergy LiFePO4 RCR123A 3.0V 750mAh cells from Battery Junction? I did a search but did not find any, thanks.
 
No tests that I'm aware of.
I have a bunch of these, my guess is they're about 350ma - 400ma. I treat them very badly by using them in a Tiablo A10 ACE, by the time they have discharged they're quite hot. I'm actually surprised at how well they stand up to higher than recommended discharges.
They were cheap cells & reasonable value, however when they stop working I dont think I'll get any more
 
I'm using the Tenergy LiFePO4s in some of my stuff, and the runtime looks to be basically what I was expecting. Nothing unusual to report aside from having to warranty one with a bad protector board. Sadly I don't have any qunatified and thus useful test scores.

Perhaps you had Tenergy 900mAH 3.0V RCR123s, which are not LiFePO4, but rather, voltage bucked 3.7V LiCo cells... I'm not aware of any LiFePO4 cell being sold with a PCB installed.

It's important to know what you have, because in the case of the later, the charger that is included with the cells can be dangerous if accidentally used with any other cells.
