I have just received 8 cells LiitoKala 3.2V 280Ah LifFePo4 Prismatic cells.
It took some time for shipping to Canada. All cells are well packing, brand new, no complains.
I did three tests of full charge and discharge and found that all these 280Ah cells have indeed about 229Ah, which is much below 280Ah the advertised on the AliExpress web site . I know if if all cells are good, one test is enough, but wanted to make sure that my conclusion is statistically correct.
I use Daly 150A 8S BMS, the charge current is around 20A, and discharge current lowest is 4.17A, highest is over 30A.
The seller shipped cells without QR code (see photo attached) instead of cells with QR code on the web site. I strongly believe they intentionally ship low-grade cells to customer for their maximum benefits.
