Qty 4 of 125Ah NINTHCIT ordered from Amzn. Arrived in 4 working days from CA warehouse to WA. Packed very well and double boxed as described above. All look clean and mostly very good. Two had some slight ripple and a small amount of bulge in the side walls. Came with 4 bus bars (need 6 to parallel), 8 nuts and 8 threaded rod segments. Tappings were clean but a bit loose and out of vertical alignment significantly. Once tightened the straighten out which makes me wonder how long they will hold. Definitely wish I had gone for something with welded studs. Out of the box voltage was a very low SOC of 2.90V on all cells. Top balancing now and so-far going well. They are clamped, but the bulging is increasing visibly.

Your cells are totally different from the ones I received. Odd?
Oh, mine are 120Ah and yours are 125Ah.
Mine passed every test...except of course the long term test. Keepers.
