Not a problem, I'll store a bunch and let you both know. Let me know how many cells you want and a number and I will try and keep them aside for you. We generally chuck em out until I get some good ones.
PS Kev, you still want some 200Ahrs? I have four in the ute at the moment (F**ken heavy bastards though, 61Kg each)
