EVE LF 280 Cell Degradation Test after 5 years + Battery#2 causes trouble again!  @OffGridGarageAustralia

Battery No2 has shut down again this morning and I do some investigation what was going on. I found two cells with very low voltage, so I did a full capacity test on them. I found the degradation between 4-7% very acceptable after 5 years of daily usage and around 520 cycles altogether.
Battery No2 has the issues with oxidation on top of the flat terminals. These are the 1st gen cells form EVE with threaded terminals and set screw. Not great! So, at some stage, we have to do a full maintenance on this battery.

Great LiFePO4 batteries from reliable sources with discount codes, directly from their stores or Alibaba (I don't recommend buying cells from AliExpress!):
