I'm so glad my cells didn't talk to you! Manufactured 11/2009, installed and on the road 1/2010. No attached BMS other than split pack voltage monitor since 7/2011 and all 40 cells are doing just fine when checked in 3/2018. End of charge voltage 3.465V held for 45 min during the CV stage with current tapering to 0A. Clearly your abslolute about Chinese cells doesn't fit. Sorry you had a bad experience. -- David D.
