Can anyone tell me about these?

Looks like they came out of medical grade Tripp Lite UPS/inverter/chargers.

The A123 26650's are good cells when new. Most are probably still useable, but the BMS's might have failed.

If the cells are still good it's a pretty good price IF they combine shipping charges. But only buy if you are capable of swapping cells...either with a soldering iron or preferably spot welder.

Thanks SolarRat. Yes I know I am taking a chance on them. I would have no problem taking them apart and harvesting the individual cells
and making a new battery out of them. I have done it before with 18650 cells. Pulled the trigger on them so will see how I make out.
