Hi ltcdata,
You have extracted sanyo ur18650a, it appears. There is some debate as to whether these are 2250mAh (4.2V) cells or 2800mAh (4.35V) cells, though apparently the 2800mAh ones should have an orange wrapper?
quoted from various internet sources. Older sanyos were that reddish pink color that the cells you extracted are.
^from that:
Note:
1. Stamp lot number on the tube
xyyz
x - year (`96=A, `97=B, ..., `10=O, `11=P, ...)
yy - week (01, 02, ..., 48, 49, ... 53)
z - Changed Career (A, B, C, ....., Z)
2. Stamp 'SANYO' & 'R1112' of cell model on the tube
Doesn't seem to be 100%, don't know how to use that to decode your lot no.s.
Some more tips to help you identify: convert the battery pack's Wh rating to Amp Hours by dividing the Wh rating by the nominal voltage listed on the pack. Now, you have the entire pack's Ah rating @ the pack's nominal voltage.
Laptop battery packs are generally two parallel strings to double the capacity, so you can divide the pack's Ah rating to get a string's Ah rating @ that series string's nominal voltage (which would be the same as the pack's nominal voltage)
Three cells in series is generally the perfect voltage for laptops, this is where they get the nominal voltage. So, you can divide the nominal voltage of the pack by 3 to get an individual cell's nominal voltage.
You now should have the info you need: a single cell's nominal voltage, and it's Ah rating.
