Brand bake-off

This puts the packs I own next to brands I haven't bought. The owned series are the ones in service. Catalog prices are shop prices, not what I paid, and purchase date, price and vendor stay blank until they're filled in. C3 and C4 (CNHL V2 6S 1300 Black, purchased 2026-10-13) are in rotation, and their storage night 2 was 2026-10-16. Charts show one series at a time, and the price bars share one scale. I've left out cost per cycle because there's no cycle count yet.

Measured IR by series

The line runs solid through a night that series wasn't measured, with nothing filled in. A series with one reading is a single point, and later readings stay on one line.

Mean internal resistance by series, true milliohms Arrow keys and the night labels move between nights. A solid line joins every recorded reading and runs straight through a night with no reading, including a night under an earlier label. No value is filled in there. A pack with only its first reading is a single point. A star on the night label is a partial night and is separate: a pack that was charged still has a point.
