21700 Battery Cell Samsung 40T
The 21700 Battery Cell Samsung 40T is a high-quality lithium-ion rechargeable cell renowned for its excellent balance of capacity and high discharge current. It features a nominal capacity of 4000mAh (minimum 3900mAh) and a nominal voltage of 3.6V/3.7V. Its maximum continuous discharge current is an impressive 35A (up to 45A under certain conditions), making it an ideal power source for high-drain devices.
The 40T cell is in the 21700 format (21mm diameter, 70mm length) and weighs approximately 67-70 grams. It boasts a low internal resistance, which translates to reduced energy loss and improved efficiency. The recommended charging method is CCCV (Constant Current, Constant Voltage) to 4.2V, with a standard charging current of 2A and a cutoff at 200mA. The cell also supports faster charging rates. The minimum discharge voltage is 2.5V and should not be exceeded.
