Yes. Still few people understand about li-ion. The main thing to understand
is there is so many different ways to make them it is quite impossible to
know enough to make any general assumptions. There’s maybe less than dozen
people in the world who can say anything in general. I can only say I know
those cells I am making and which I have been litterallyt living with
almost two decades. It is not about knowing all but to know what one
specific cell type can do. And when certain treshold of knowledge is met
most things around it can be optimized to get the job done (what ever it
is). -Jukka
