- notjulianjaynes 3y agoEVE would be my guess too, possibly INR18650-35V, which seems totally cromulent for an ebike. EVE cells are also used in newer Ryobi power tools, it's worth pointing out: https://www.reddit.com/r/ryobi/comments/oxn53g/psa_ryobi_is_using_chinese_18650_cells_in_most_of/ https://www.reddit.com/r/ryobi/comments/oxn53g/psa_ryobi_is_...
- dallasg3 3y agoSimpsons did it.
- xarope 3y agoI think you mean 18650? Unless 1865 is a new battery standard that has 10x the capacity, in which case EDC light with 1000 hours runtime here we go!
- pests 3y agoThey are indeed called 1865 cells too. The 0 at the end, according to some sources, indicates the cylinder form factor; I couldn't find a definitive reference for this though. But you will find articles and sources online referring to them as 1865 cells, like Wikipedia. "An 18650 battery[1] or 1865 cell[2] is a cylindrical lithium-ion battery common in electronic devices" https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/18650_battery https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/18650_battery I imagine Tesla calling their new battery a 4680 (opposed to a 46800) also leads to this usage.
- jpgvm 3y agoYeah it's abbreviated sometimes and I'm lazy. I should have added the 0 for clarity.
