Kit showed up in 2 boxes. Cells were just in cardboard packing with no wrap, foam anything to protect from damage, shipping etc. Few of the cells on the outside of the box were skuffed from transport. The wrap on some of the cells is pretty poorly done, with the black strip on top of the cells coming off on almost all the cells. Most cells did read out to between 3.1-3.29v. I had 2 cells in the box that were 2.2 and 2.4v. I purchased an internal resistance tester to see the condition of these 2 cells. And to match them in groups for best performance. Some cells have corrosion on the studs that will need to be cleaned up to prevent issues. The bussbars are on the thin side for sure. Not sure how much I trust them, and there were also no screws for the balancer mounting holes. We will see how this kit performs in a car, only using it to power 8k with a 270a alt at 14.4v. Time will tell, but cell quality and condition could be a bit better, missing hardware (just a few screws but now I have to go find some that work) and the 2 low voltage cells.
