hah, well it appears that the capacity may be part of the standardization for that?

Oh I'd really hope not, who wouldn't want higher capacity 18650 cells? Maybe they wouldn't be VTC-6, but those are the highest capacity cells I've managed to find!

  • If they changed it you'd need a new BMC, right?

    • No, the BMC tends to not care about capacity. You'd maybe need to change the software, but because the capacity changes over the lifetime of the battery, the BMC tends to go by voltage anyway.
