Cylindrical 21700 High-Power Cell
Trydan Tech 6000T
Cylindrical 21700 cell delivering 6 Ah capacity, 300 Wh/kg energy density and 60 A maximum discharge rate.
Overview
The Trydan Tech 6000T is a high-power Li-ion cylindrical 21700 cell designed for applications that demand sustained high current. Released in 2026 and with the manufacturer based in India, this cylindrical 21700 cell delivers 6 Ah capacity and 21.6 Wh of energy at a nominal voltage of 3.6 V, with a maximum continuous discharge capability of 60 A, making it well suited to high-power systems. A gravimetric energy density of 300 Wh/kg puts it at the upper end of the library. The silicon-bearing anode contributes to that energy density. Among the 21700 cylindrical cells in the About:Energy battery library, the Trydan Tech 6000T ranks 9th of 97 for gravimetric energy density. Its 300 Wh/kg compares with a 21700 cylindrical median of 257 Wh/kg.

McMurtry Automotive: Faster cell evaluation
McMurtry Automotive used The Voltt and validated cell models to evaluate the transition from the Molicel P45B to P50B during early pack concept development.
Side by side modelling enabled rapid comparison of electrical and thermal behaviour, avoiding lengthy physical test campaigns. This approach reduced cell evaluation time by seven months, allowing the team to lock in cell selection and pack assumptions earlier while lowering technical risk and accelerating vehicle development.

Manufacturer Background
Trydan Tech
Trydan Tech is an American and Indian developer of high-power lithium-ion and sodium-ion cells
Trydan Tech operates from Pleasanton, California and Bengaluru, India, building lithium-ion cells engineered for high power delivery and low internal resistance. Its range spans cylindrical, pouch and large-format prismatic LFP cells, alongside sodium-ion designs for stationary storage. The technical focus is electrode composition and a dual active-material system that combines battery and supercapacitor behaviour in a single cell, aimed at sustaining high power without the heat generation that normally accompanies it. The company targets electric vehicles, eVTOL aircraft, industrial systems and data centre backup, where charge and discharge rate rather than energy density sets the design limit. Its distinguishing claim is extended cycle life under high-rate duty.
