DMEGC INR18650-29E

Budget energy 18650 cell from DMEGC. 2900mAh capacity. IMPORTANT: DMEGC claims 10A CDR but Mooch independently rated it at 5.8A — design packs around 5-6A/cell max. Very common in cheap Chinese pre-assembled e-bike battery packs due to low OEM cost.

In brief: 18650 Li-ion battery cell. 2900mAh capacity. 6A continuous discharge. From $2.
