Hi all, I found out something really interesting.
I have got two 18650 batteries from ultrafire. There is written on them " overcurrent protected ". So I measured the Amps of the batteries and they nearly blow up my multimeter.
I measured them in the 10A setting, and got 20A out! I don't want do damage the batteries or my multimeter, so I measured them for just a second or two. They get warm after a short time too.
Thats a lot of power, but it seems not to be " overcurrent protected " or did I misunderstood something?
