Unfortunately, yes.
I’ve had multipe experiences with seeing a flashlight battery which, according to labels, ought to have the capacity of an electric vehicle cell. And of course they don’t. :)
If one needs high current, measuring the current with a known and low resistance (e.g. car headlight bulb) helps.
