This thread is definitely suffering from a 'jump on a statement syndrome'....

From reading what Jim has stated, I am GUESSING that only dimensional and weights are checked on a physical battery to give a bench point for checking at a race meeting. If a cell is officially imported into Europe/UK then it must of past the tests that he mentioned. In that respect, all officially imported batteries would of gone through the same rigorous testing surely?

Why not ask the correct people and know for sure? having been involved in getting some lipo approved, 1/ its not as simple as you think 2/ there is more than you are guessing
