Liitokala 320ah cells 1 seems to be leaking. Anyone in uk have a spare?

Well I just recieved the cells I ordered back at the beginning of July. They took over 3 months to get to me.

One of them appears to have sustained a whack and had a leak I think from around the overpressure release. Have a look at the pics is it still safe to use? I would think not. If anyone in the UK or EU has a spare cell 320ah they want to donate or accept some £$€ for send me a message.


The Cells ended up free because they had guaranteed delivery or money back and they were also were not going to be delivered before buyer protection ran out. So I opened a case with Ali express as soon as I could and got a full refund. I assumed they had been lost. So that's a bonus but don't really want to be buying a stack of 4 and getting them shipped halfway around the globe.

The cell its self was not actually wet, and I have even inverted it over news paper for a few hours. :-s could it be just a dodgy batch of glue. I dunno I'm tempted to err on caution though so if anyone had a single cell going?

There should be more on leaking cells in this forum.

Yep, does it matter if they've leaked from the overpressure during transport? I'll play it safe unless I hear from an expert.

Are you sure the pressure valve have released pressure and liquid? It looks closed to me To me it looks like it have fallen off a truck and been laying in a ditch for a couple of days exposed to the elements.

I wouldn't rely on this cell or risk anything with it anyway tho other than for testing/experiment purposes
