I purchased some torches with 14500s claimed to be 2400mAh which I
didn't believe. I doubt that they were even close to 850/900mAh as fully
charged they didn't last long in the torch. Replacement 900mAh batteries
lasted much longer.

I have some GTL batteries (also called GIF) (Chinese ****) that say 2500. I tested them (bulb, ammeter) and got 500. Official tests I've found on websites agree. Got them free, I moaned at the seller and got all the money back.

Including VAT :-)
