Taken the plunge and ordered 24x150ah - now going through the aliexpress verification service to pay for them from BLS.

Also just could buy 16 x 150Ah from BLS after a week of AliExpress verification process... Let's see when they get there! As for the BMS I'm more and more decided towards the TinyBMS without external relays to begin with, the good thing it that it can be upgraded afterwards. But I guess I have some more time to decide before the cells arrive.
All the cells are original new, we have no certificate for this battery, but have battery test before delivery.
The QR CODE was removed, so cant seen it. All battery are new and warranty for 1 year.
If you want to original new and all certifications have it, what about CALB battery or Winston?
CATL is exactly is new, but u required don’t have it, so we suggest you buy CALB 200ah, which is very popular in your side
Factory said CATL is original new, but 1 customer after received it, he dont see the QR code on the battery, so he is not satisfied
so we suggest you can buy CALB
The 200's are a GOOD DEAL ! 16 cells @ $156ea USD = 2,496 would make a 24V/400AH pack. Add $250 for a BMS, wiring / BOS and your done unless you want a fancy case or something.
The only bug in the ointment is the shipping, if it's free of not.
Does anyone know who manufactures the 150Ah blue aluminum cells sold by BLS
$799 8 x 150Ah blue aluminum cells BLS
Edit: I think I answered my own question.
Hi-Gee appears to be the manufacturer (http://www.ihigee.com/). Anyone know anything about this company?
Update on the super cheap 200Ah blue aluminum CATL cells Alibaba cells sold through Deligreen.
Excerpts from my correspondence with Deligreen:
Then she linked me to these CALB cells, which are apparently new, A grade, and still have QR codes/documentation.
200Ah Blue Plastic CALB
180Ah Grey Plastic CALB
Deligreen claim the 200Ah cells are Grade A cells, but not certification. i dont know. i think still better deal than BLS as deligreen gives 1 year warranty on their cells.
Very funny dude....I must admit lots of people say treat your cells with care and you'll get 4-5000 cycles and only 2000 cycles if you use them hard. That's still 5.5 years of daily cycling, in that time another better battery will be out that you'd want anyway. I'm not going to worry about being too careful, using 11.8v - 14.0v is good enough for me.

@msdmaddog would you mind sharing the correspondence where Deligreen claims they are grade A cells either here or through private message? I've been talking with them as well and haven't been able to get them to state whether they are or aren't A grade.
Yesyepp as jejochen told, they told me the same.
which one you ordered jochen ? 200Ah ?
I’m located in Sweden and both sellers claim “no EU tax”.. (how??). Since I need delivery quite soon, I Will pay for shipping by air in the first case. Price is more or less equal so which one is the best choice?
They don't ship from China; they come from a European warehouse which is why there is no customs stuff to deal with. Use their standard/free delivery since you won't save anything by picking the other option.
