Being a child of the sixties, teenager during that time those bands are all known to me and I still listen to their music. Good stuff."Whatcha wanna do..."

I mean, this applies to almost everything in life, whether you are buying lithium cells from china, new microwave at target, or even a house.but lots of garbage is sold // pawned off on people who do not take the time to do the research...
And there seems to be an amazing load of fools on the DIY Electric Car forum. Building an EV, or even simply converting an old car to electric, is a LOT more difficult than building a solar/battery power system. Yet I see the dumbest questions and answers over there routinely.a fool and their money are soon parted
unfortunately, a lot of things seem to be made to purposely fail in a short time so you have to replace it....I mean, this applies to almost everything in life, whether you are buying lithium cells from china, new microwave at target, or even a house.

This is the natural conclusion to capitalism, where consumption is the primary driver of the economy.unfortunately, a lot of things seem to be made to purposely fail in a short time so you have to replace it....
(((murphy's law.... the most expensive part will fail in sacrifice for the cheap inexpensive part.... ))) Mike Holt said that (not word for word so don't quote me) on one of his NEC (national electric code) training videos.....This is the natural conclusion to capitalism, where consumption is the primary driver of the economy.
Thanks, this is a great thread.
I looked at the replies to the thread and watched how it went from discussing DIY costs to discussing quality suppliers.? But it seems that this forum is tailor-made for Amy (Luyuan) and Docan. Well, it's their good reputation that makes them win.
When I search for other suppliers here, little or no information is displayed. And my question here is who has worked with Eva (BatteryFinds) and I want to get more information about Eva.
Spot on @Steve_S - I actually did have a hobby of electrical and electronics, so did already have 3 different multimeters, a heat gun, and a hydraulic crimper. And yet, somehow I spent at least twice what I spent on cells for the other stuff.I'm sure it has already been raised through the thread, when DIY'ing your batteries there are tools and equipment required. Some people who are into electronics and electrical work they have a head start but that's not everyone, not most in fact.
Multimeters, Small Sockets, Screwdrivers, Heat Gun, Crimpers (Batt Cable, Insulated & Non-insulated wire), strippers/cutters and more, just to name the obvious. Power Supplies for charging & maybe a battery tester or more if you start getting deeper in AND Once the bug hits you, your wallet will squeal ! Then the spouse quickly thereafter, as sure as the sun rises in the east!

Of course, now that I have this stuff, it is tempting to build more DIY batteries. I just need to find some excuses.
