Hi, so I have been getting into rebuilding power tool batteries, especially 5ah Dewalt batteries. The cells that are in them are inr18650-25r samsung with a capacity of 2500mah.
Question 1. When I test every cell, is a threshhold of at least 80% capacity to be used in rebuilding another battery a good threshold?
Question 2. If a 2500mah cell tests less than the 80% capacity, but tests at say 70%, is it alright to put that cell in a 4ah tool battery which uses 2000mah cells, or will it not last the same?
I would be grateful for advice on this. Thanks
