The battery is a slightly short versions of a 18500 battery and because it is IMR it does not have protection, but can deliver a lot of current.










The two cells tracks very nicely and the capacity is independent of load.











The battery does not have enough capacity for my 5 test runs.





Flat top version





This is the flat top version of the battery.











With a slightly larger sample of the battery it can be seen that not all cells match perfectly, but it is still a good match.















Conclusion

The battery has very good performance at high currents, but as usual with high current batteries the capacity is on the low side.
It will rate it as an acceptable battery.
