I recently got 8 280Ah cells from Shenzhen Luyuan (Amy Wan). Grade A-.
They looked good (very well packed too). No dents, no scratches, no swelling.
But, one cell goes over voltage. It's not the BMS, the cell actually does. Voltmeter confirms. Switching cells order doesn't change things. It's that particular cell.
Now, it starts going over voltage (does so very quickly, takes a long time to balance back).
It does it at roughly 27.2 volts - the cell jumps from 3.38V (like the others) to 3.7 and more.
The BMS cuts the charge, and then it takes some half an hour for it to balance back.
Thing is, before reaching that voltage, it behaves quite normally. Puzzled.
