I see these guys list them: http://www.nrgdynamics.co.uk/cells_gp3700.htm

They say they don't have many left though, and it also states this about the cells:

These are old stock and fail to come up to the full 3700mah spec. but still perform as expected

The first lot I got from Maxamps

I picked up the last lot from here: - www.selections-web.co.uk
(Found them through ebay - £23.50 For 6 new and delivered)

They took just over 4000mah on there 1st charge after soldering them myself.

As said, for someone like me - perfect.

Thanks Ben,

Weird website www.selections-web.co.uk

But I've just placed my order, the 3700's will be more than good enough for me I'm sure.

Unfortunately pretty much every recent cell is going to be off the list if the criteria are carried through. Not just IBs.

I wouldn't buy any cells for BRCA events next summer until the 2008 lists come out in the new year. You might end up with a couple of hundred quids worth of unusable cells on your hands.

No problem. Very true - strange website. But they are a friendly bunch if you get in touch with them over the phone.


I'm not understanding this cell banning. What cells are going to be ok to use if the ones we are using are banned. My cells are 44 to 45mm and 46 if you include the deans bars. I don't know of any other types of cells.
