Any honest state side Eve cells Grade A EV resellers?

[timselectric]

Had any trouble with the new type post?

Saw an article on here about them getting bent in shipping when stuff put on top of them..

No, they're very strong. I don't know how they would get bent. I really like the double threads. Also very versatile.

I like the B2A24S20P and the 4.3" LCD. if you can't find that model. Look for the one that has -Can-Heat, after that number. That one will work too. It just cost more. It provides optional interface for a silicone heat pad to keep your batteries warm in below freezing temperatures. Look at the specs, I use it for 16S but it also works for 8S.

I'm also running the B2A24S20P.

Do I need a canbus cable to run an lcd? Can the B2A24S20P accept a bluetooth module?

It has a phone app, connected via Bluetooth. And you can get the display made for it, separately.
I just use the phone app.

Comment on the midnite solar all-in-one units, sounds like they are direct copies of other units with their name slapped on them. The specs are non ideal for PV voltage VOC standpoint. I was looking at the 24v unit until I started digging into the specs and sister units from China and was less than impressed.

Many other good options for AIO high frequency inverters, GrowWatt and MPP being too two.

A side note, any idea why your LA Golf Cart Batteries “puked” acid? That might mean over charging which would double down of replacing current gear as it may have failed.

I’m all for replacing for new gear and fancy features (and dropping large sums of money) but knowing why your in this pickle to begin with is probably more important.

What do you have for a solar system to support charging the battery?

Grade A, is a marketing thing.
You don't want to pay what EV quality cells cost.
All of my cells have, and will come from

I used 18650 for mine as well and was very happy with their service (2 day delivery time) and 280Ah cells. Although, it looks like their pricing has gone up a LOT in the last several months since I purchased from them!

Can I get someone to look at these batteries and let me know if they are a green light to buy and also from this vendor?
I am off grid and need batteries ASAP as mine have died and I am running from gen.

If $230 for 4 cells, that seems too cheap. If that's $230/cell, that seems too high for that Ah... But I've never priced these cells.

I think it's around $800 for four cells, so $200 each. It's better than waiting 8 to 10 weeks. At least I can drive down in visit if I need to, it's only eight hours.

I noticed the price increase, for this order. (Arriving tomorrow) but they added free shipping. Which took some of the sting out of it. Everything is getting more expensive. I wish that I could buy everything right now.

My regular vacation trip takes me within 5 minutes of the warehouse. I might be bringing back a "ton" of souvenirs this year. lol

For some reason I thought they have a U.S. warehouse too. I probably got mixed up with 18650batterystore

actually docan tech has a houston warehouse where they ship from

Just got mine too. Do you know what the recommended torque is for these new terminals?

6 n-m. These are nice. SS helicoil inserts, heavy four hole bus bars. Perfect condition. I'll set up and charge 16S and capacity test one tomorrow.

Agreed, I paid $122/cell for 230ah with free shipping back in April. Sure they aren’t EV grade but perfect for my needs.

These the ones from the 18650 store? I'm probably pulling the trigger on 16 any day now. What BMS are you using? This will be my first build.

Got mine today, also.
Already connected to my system.
This batch is just like the first. Absolutely perfect.
