I got a pile of batteries in one envelope, not the best way to ship batteries, even when they are shrink wrapped. Efest have changed their packing.

Conclusion

These IMR batteries can handle high loads, but has a slight difference in capacity, i.e. care must be taken not to run one battery down.
I will rate them as acceptable.
