I ordered this package from Battery EVO: https://batteryevo.com/battery-evo-12v-lithium-lifepo4-150ah-2-kwh-135a-bms-kit/
Received the battery cells yesterday and first thing I did was check the cell voltages. Three of the cells have hand written stickers stating the test voltage of the cell, I presume from the time of packaging because they match my readings.
Cell one: Meter 2.9 Tag: 2986
Cell two: Meter = 2.9 Tag:2988
Cell three: Meter 2.9 Tag:2986
All is good even if they in a low state of charge. They sent me a data sheet via email this AM after I asked. Their data sheet claims a discharge voltage of 2.5 v so these cells are ok.
Now for the fourth cell... This cell has no test sticker on it at all, I even checked in the box in case it fell off. So no idea if it was even checked before shipping. Cell four reads 2.2 volts and that seems like it may be damaged to me. I am afraid to put this pack together and try to charge it because of this bad cell and so far Battery EVO has only responded with the aforementioned data sheet.
So what is your experiance with Battery EVO and their cells and have you use any cells in this condition before and how are they performing now? Yes the listing states that these are reconditioned but I expect them to be matched.
