The outbound quality control report is done by all manufacturers and tests electrical performance metrics to ensure they meet all standards.
The cells are tested many times throughout the manufacturing process but EVE will only provide us with the final test report which is done just prior to them leaving the EVE facility.
Because the EVE LF280K we offer include the EVE Dual screw terminal block, which is manufactured and installed by EVE, our cells get sent to the EVE pack building production line for this process.
The outbound quality control test report we provide is completed by the pack building production line and may appear slightly different from the report done by the cell production line. (ie. Our EVE LF105 cells).
Other vendors will choose to have the terminal welds done themselves or by a third party. In this case, EVE will only provide the green/yellow quality control report from the cell production line.
Additionally, EVE cannot file for a dangerous goods export certificate once the cells leave their facility and go to a third party facility in China for processing. That third party facility will be the one required to file for a dangerous goods export certificate or what is often the case, they will choose to ship the cells undeclared and illegally (duty free AKA special line).
In our experience, once you introduce a third party facility to apply spec result stickers, custom logo packaging and weld onto your cells, it opens the door for many bad possibilities.
The cells we offer have not been handled by ANYONE besides EVE Energy and us ensuring 100% certainty you will get the Grade A cells you are expecting with 10+ years design life!
