order enough eve 280Ah cells for another 24v pack from @Amy Zheng and the packaging was fantastic!!!
They did not try to overpack a box with a bunch of cells and see how much tossing they can withstand; just 2 cells per box, very well packaged in perfect fit foam shells; boxes nicely taped up.
This is the best shipping approach for batteries I have seen yet and probably what is always need as all the shippers (ups, fedex, usps, etc.) seem to take it as a personal challege to toss, roll, and crush anything they can get...boxes had a few crushed corners so they tried; even when I went out to the UPS truck to help carry them in and told the guy they are batteries, he just started rolling them towards the back of the truck hehe
Inside their custom foam carriers the batteries were WELL protected...
How is this for a battery ordering process:
ordered 3 Nov
shipped 4 Nov
received 6 Nov (yes, the same year!!)
All batteries at 3.294V +/- 2mv
They look like actual grade A cells, no rewraps, no dents, zero bloating!
yes it cost a bit more but well worth it to actually get your cells, and not only have something arrived, but arrive intact hehe
capacity testing will commence after I let them rest upright for 24hrs...
