21700 High-Power Cell
MoliceI INR-21700-P60B
High-power 21700 battery cell delivering 6 Ah capacity with 90–100 A discharge capability
Overview
The Molicel INR‑21700‑P60B is a 21700‑format lithium‑ion battery cell designed for applications demanding very high power. With 6.0 Ah capacity and 3.6 V nominal voltage, the P60B supports continuous discharge currents up to 90 A and peak currents of 100 A. Its low 12.8 mΩ internal resistance reduces heat build‑up and enables a wide –40 °C to 60 °C operating range
