Those cells don't seem too bad. It's still hard to get exact V/A testpoints, but I calculate pack resistance somewhere between 1.4mOhms-3mOhms.

We can't forget that's pack resistance, and includes the wires and connectors. I don't know why they'd use 12AWG on cells with 150C claims, but 200mm of 12AWG wire will introduce around 1mOhm of resistance by itself.

That brings pack resistance to between 0.4mOhms and 2mOhms. Not bad at all for an 8 cell pack IMO.

Although, I still don't think these are truly "150C" rated. Given the price, I know I still won't be buying them anytime soon.
