I can't find much at all about them from several different searches. The label only gives this:
cc 770
ca 1,000
load test amps 380

They ARE after all cores, so it could very well be they were dead to begin with, but that I got as far as I did makes me wonder. Also, I never even charged them since they showed 13.01v and the label says not to charge until it gets to 12.5v. But the simple fact that the pack voltage stayed as high as it did, and further that each battery is still showing some high numbers leads me to believe that for some reason they were the ones giving their hearts out....
