EVE 50PL: THE BEST PERFORMING, WORST MARKETED CELL IN THE WORLD

UPDATE: There have been several reports of high self-discharge with the pre-production EVE 50PL cells. Some buyers have received "new" pre-production cells in the box with voltage readings near 1v. Do not purchase the 50PL until full production cells are released, with the CCC certification logo on the label. We battery geeks and power freaks have been excitedly waiting - practically ALL of 2025 - for the final version EVE 50PL tabless cells to come out. The early reviews and reports on pre-production cells have people VERY excited, because the 50PL appears to be the best performing 21700 cell on the market. Since its announcement in March, I've been anxiously awaiting the final version 50PL cells to test them. Now, here are the long-awaited tests of this incredible li-ion cell. Yes, the video is long: for that reason, I put the conclusion near the beginning. Then the results, and finally, all the tests at the end. This is a very significant cell, and it deserves an in-depth analysis of both the cell, and the controversy surrounding its marketing and distribution.

Also there's a deep dive into cell capacity, marketing claims about capacity, and how many cells (including this one) don't provide their advertised capacity. I also explain the controversy about the whole "pre-production" debacle that's been surrounding this cell's introduction to market. Is the EVE 50PL the best performing cell in the world? Was it worth the wait? Watch to find out! Feel free to leave comments and questions; I'll try to answer any questions. ----------------------- I spent many hours (over 20 12+ hour days) on the testing here, and producing this video.
