After 76 days wait I finally received my lishen 272ah cells in the uk from Shenzhen shouhuzhe.
it’s the first time I’ve purchased from alibaba and it’s went fairly smoothly so far except the longer than expected wait.
the cells were shipped without any protective foam, the shipping labels were on the bottom of the box. Which has caused them to be shipped upside down. They have the welded on studs and has damaged the top off two cells. im not sure if these cells will have internal damage or not. There’s also one cell with a dented corner. I’ve messaged the seller asking if they can be replaced but I’m not holding out any hope, it’s been hard enough to get a reply to my questions sometimes.
I paid extra shipping charges to get the cells sent by train rather than the slow boat, it takes 28-32 days by train according to the train company’s web site. What I think has happened is Shenzhen shouhuzhe has waited until alibaba has cleared my funds to them before sending them. That’s based on countin fb backwards to the date the funds were released.
The cells them self are all within 3 millivolt of each other and the IR is the same for all. I weighed them and they seem to be a within 20g range. Some of the cells are slightly bloated, when put next to each other there is slight gaps at the top, around 3mm at worst.
Will the cells with the damage be safe to charge, top balance and capacity test or should I hold out for replacements?
