Hi, first off I'm pretty new to this, so please be nice.
Last year, I purchased (from Jenny Wu @ Docan) a set of 8 LF50K cells for a small 50Ah 24v motorized kayak battery build, and the cells were VERY flat. Battery works great.
I just purchased another set of 8 LF304K cells from the same source, for a 24V travel trailer build. Some are flatter than others but all seem to have at least some low point in the middle, and some higher points on each side. Hard to capture, but here's a photo - this is probably one of the worst. I'm wondering if this is "normal" for LF304's, or if these look used or just lower grade "storage grade" new cells? Anything to worry about?
The QR code on all 8 cells decodes to say they were made last July 2022.
Quote from the seller - "they are brand new EVE LF304 cells".
Thoughts?
Thanks!
