Do I need to create a new post for this? Seems like the title is related. I need some help with 8 cells I just purchases from EEL that the original qr code under the sticker has no product capacity. The batteries are bloated and do not reach full charge since some of them reach over protection...

Here is the response to my dispute with them what do you think? I have been testing the battery bank and there is one cell that either over charges and under charges compared to the other 7. I have let them know this too. I am using a JK BMS 8s 16s model. Shenzhen EEL Battery Co.,Ltd April 1...

I agree, I think the responder, Howard thinks we are a bunch of d*** a**. Here is the latest reply from me: April 1, 2024 at 6:14:05 AM PDT As for the bloating this is not normal for a new battery but instead a sign of being overcharged or older than a new battery! Your reply “ there is no...

Oh man, I really need to tell Andy at Off-grid garage to pull this company from his website. I just now emailed Howard for a refund mostly since the pack can't reach full charge. One of the cells runaway to 3.65v while others still at 3.342. Active balancer 2amp can't keep up. changed charge...

I appreciate the replies. Starting to feel a little better. I have a reply from Howard and he mentioned "Did you check the real QR code under the stickers? because the CATL has not released this version to the market yet, so we put the 280 stickers on it. You can please test these cells and...

Happy you chose someone else other than EEL. I purchased 8 306ah cells that are bloated and have charging issues with manufacture dates of 2022. Here is there latest response to my dispute for a refund. My next purchase is going to be with 18650 instead. They have data on their site with the...

I have a similar issue with older batteries just purchased with Howard and he ignored all my concerns. I am now in dispute with the help of paypal to get my money back. The issue of the imbalance if not for a defective cell could a resistance between the bus bars and the batteries.

I have started the dispute with the help of Paypal and here is the response. Another forum member did find the information that the qr codes is one type of battery and the sticker over it is another. One under it is a 306ah that is one their website. I have been testing the battery bank and...

Checking here to see if I can find a clue for you. After watching this with v3 looks like balancing is quite a challenge for the Seplos bms

I was thinking the same but with my experience I try to be really clear so there is no confusion. Hope paypal will pick up on the fact they have not provided the documents necessary to prove the batteries are new. Great website by the way and very easy to understand! Here is my reply today so...

funny, it was all spaced out properly with spaces between paragraphs but paypal dispute app fudged it all up. I just thought of another reason for my word vomit even though had to cut 800 letters out of due to limits is Paypal will have to review this if there is no resolution between the buyer...

I tried and failed! :)

I wish I would of found this post prior. I just received my order of 8pcs CATL320Ah Grade A LFP battery cells from Howard at eel battery and several are bulged but my question for all of you is that when you order a 320ah and the qr code 001CB31000000BCAN1304823 shows capacity 280ah label says...

Here is my experience with EEL https://diysolarforum.com/threads/catl-lfp-cell-model-code-31.38138/post-1052181 "Not good"

I am such a newbie to all this but it does sound fishy. I am steering that way for sure with attempting to get a refund but I hear that is nearly impossible when it ships from China. What bugs me the most the the manufacture date. I have been watching Ray builds stuff and Andy at off-grid...

Yes I am struggling, I am struggling to except old batteries that are bloated! As for the balancing it has been done and cell 5 is doing better. I'll know more today since yesterday I didn't get a full charge but almost. At least now they finally sent some info about compression that is useful...

I am thinking once I get a resolution might be easier to post a new thread. I'm not sure how to post my posts from here to a new one

I just made a purchase through Alibaba and they to prompted for an access code from by bank and it was legit. Seams that how credit cards are confirming it is you.

I am such a noob at this and really appreciate your wisdom! Small correction in my post, I was unclear that the cb310 was on the sticker and the cb7c0 is under on only one of them. so as of now they are all the same battery until I peal off the rest of the stickers. It seems they created the...
