Personally, I wouldn't take any single view in isolation on this or any other forum. Put the research in and that's the best you can ask. It seems lots of people are buying from Alibaba with great success and the cells are working well. Wills youtube channel has tested several B grade cells that...

Have you actually setup a 4S single 12v configuration and carried out any testing? I have a single 4S configuration.

Understood, I'm stuck with 12v now, too far down the line with Victron 2000w Multiplus inverter 2/0 cabling etc. Any comments on the potential issues of balancing whilst running two bms' on 4S system.

@SoundinSpirit Hey, looking to run the same set up with 2 100a JBD overkill BMS on a 280a 4S config. Any updates, pros- cons you can offer? Thanks

Is this advisable on a 12v 4S setup.? I watched a year old video from @Will Prowse when he paralleled 2x60 daly bms' but didn't advise running a continuous 120a load for any duration. More like 80-90a. Nor was there any discussion the on what effect this would have on the balancing of the cells...

Hi Steve, could you offer any advice regards hooking two of these JBD 100a BMS in parallel? for pulling say 150a continuous? @Will Prowse did a video a year ago on paralleling two 60a daly bms' i think and he was relatively happy but he advised d-rating them to maybe 80-90amps. He didnt cover...

Hi guys, Has anyone managed to source a plastic traditional style battery box that can house a 4S 280a configuration and has room for a 200A BMS. I plan on using a smart Daly BMS which it is a bit on the bulky side.

I thought this was a helpful insight into grade A and B cells for folks that are interested. It's put together by a local trying to educate westerners about battery tech. The company is called Seplos and have a YouTube channel with other useful resource videos. Also posted by dzl on another thread.

Or if you prefer the british angle

Steve, I have the perfect avatar for you. ?

Steve, it's my pleasure to be acquainted online, if I am honest I had hoped you would pass comment. As I have been brought up in a Frank, and 'tell it how it is' household your crustiness as you put it, is not a bad thing. I am sorry to hear of your personal situation and wish you only the best...

In case any of you missed Amy's recent post that helps answer some of the mis information out there. Post in thread 'Introducing the New & Improved Shenzhen Luyuan Technology Co.' https://diysolarforum.com/threads/introducing-the-new-improved-shenzhen-luyuan-technology-co.15880/post-188599

Hi all, I ve put in months of research into reading all the posts on this and other forums regarding purchasing true grade A 280ah prismatic Lifepo4 cells for a Motorhome build (if that's even possible) through Alibaba platform. Ive spoke to the majority of the top 10 suppliers by sales volume...

Apologies, I was referring to Battleborn in that instance but I think you get the theme of the message. This is the Chinese we are talking about, I don't think printing UL or CE logos is beyond there scope. ?

Kerner, I'm on the same path. Have you made up your mind up on who the lucky supplier is getting your business?
