I’m new to the site, but I have a bunch of these Philips packs (M4605A) out of medical equipment. They get replaced every 2-3 years regardless of use. They contain 9 CGR18650CG (MH12210) each and were exceptionally easy to pull compared to the drill packs I’ve done. Cadex charger primed the cells and all of them reached at least 90% of the rated capacity. As back up batteries they probably haven’t been cycled at all and arrive at full charge to be recycled.
Scored these 4 battery packs at Best Buy a few weeks ago:
