Critical Engineering Correction & Selection Verdict (EVE LF100MA vs. EVE LF105): While both cells deliver ~320Wh–336Wh at 3.2V nominal voltage and support 1C continuous charge/discharge, they DO NOT share the same physical casing dimensions. EVE LF100MA (100Ah) uses a low-profile 160.0 × 50.0 × 118.5 mm aluminum shell (ideal for low-height 12.8V under-seat RV/marine battery boxes and 3U telecom racks), whereas EVE LF105 (105Ah) uses a slim-tall 130.3 × 36.7 × 200.5 mm casing (ideal for narrow floor-standing or golf-cart battery compartments).
