Cham 18650s Any Good?

[Marquis07]

Hey,
I salvaged some Cham cmicr18650f8 cells the other day from a powerbank. Are they worth keeping, or should I toss them?
I'm happy to keep them as spares, I'm just wondering if they could potentially damage my lights in the future.

Thanks,
Mark

If there is no damage and have an acceptable capacity I see no good reason to trash them.
They may not last as others, but you already have them so ...

Yeah, they're in perfect condition. They're still subpar to my other ones, but I'll use them in my Thrunite C2. Ty.

Well subpar quality is not always a huge problem. I have some recycled 18650 cells from old laptop batteries which still do a fine enough job in a flashlight used to check for mail, not so critical anyway. Or to check for my sons lego missing parts under the table, etc.
