Ecoworthy 2 pack 280ah with bus bar

Yes, we’re excited to introduce our new order pickup service😊! This allows you to save on certain costs by picking up your purchased battery directly from our warehouse.

☀️Here’s how it works:
  1. After placing your order, simply reach out to our customer service team and let them know you’d like to choose the pickup option.
  2. Our team will confirm the warehouse address and available pickup times with you and help schedule your appointment.
  3. You’ll receive a warehouse pick-up form. Please make sure to pick up the battery within the scheduled time to avoid any additional charges.
  4. Once you’ve completed the pickup, contact our customer service team with your pick-up form, and you’ll receive a $300 refund.
Choosing pickup is a great way to save, but please note, you’ll be responsible for the transportation of your product. We’re here to help make it a smooth experience!

We currently support two pickup locations. Below are the specific addresses:

🚙 1683 Sunflower Avenue, Costa Mesa, CA 92626(Pickup is expected to begin in early August)
🚙 85 Metro Way, Secaucus, NJ 07094(Pickup is expected to begin in mid-August)

Hope this helps! 😊
This is what was posted on the new product thread about the pick up process.

I wonder what the minimum weight and/or dollar threshold is for the $300 refund?
Otherwise Ima borrow my neighbors prius and make a 5kw inverter purchase. And then a refurb sever rack battery purchase.
Like 5 days a week.
 
I can vouch for this. I purchased the 2 batteries almost a month ago, although I paid slightly more than the current price.

The batteries came really well packed, no damage during shipping. They were packed one on top of the other. The only issue I had was lifting the top battery off. They are about 300 lbs each. Definitely need 2 people or more to lift it.

My batteries are already in use, paralleled with 6 Ruixu server rack batteries. No problems at all. But I am still waiting on the free bus bar and the DC charger that was promised by Eco-Worthy.
 
Im buying some too. How did you get the communication to work?
The Ecoworthy batts have several communication protocol choices, you just choose the one you need from the touch screen. Since I have it connected to an EG4 6500EX, I chose the Victronics protocol on the battery and LiB on the inverter. I had to use the special EG4 ethernet cable which I couldn't find, but it took a couple of minutes to make my own since I already have the plugs and crimper to make it.
 
Whoa, says "Extra discount for self pickup." I wonder how much discount that would be, if it's in the low $3000's it may be worth my while to drive 2 hours to pick up from their Los Angeles CA location.
I believe the discount is $300, not sure if that's for 1 battery or you can get it for both. See here:

 
WOW! Nice surprise from Eco-Worthy today! The mailman just delivered this to me today. I didn't even know it was coming.
When I purchased two of the floor standing batteries, they said they would send the busbars for free when it becomes available. True to their word, they delivered! Woohoo! I put a ruler in front so you can see how big it is. The label on it calls it "Combiner Box".

I received mine today. It has some weight to it. I am moving all kinds of equipment around but when I get a chance I am going to load that puppy up with hundreds of amps and put a thermal gun on it. Also measure the voltage drop across it.

If someone beats me to it please post your findings!
 
I'm jealous of you guys, eco-worthy must not like my review of the "beast" battery v2 because no busbar for me. Though truth be told I have a good quality copper busbar that i'm using so I would probably just give it away.

I'm curious what you find, the specs say they are brass.

I haven't connected anything. Rebuilt my LP4V1 with new bms and getting room ready for SRNE.

The instruction did say brass with Stainless bolts.

"There are instances where the superior tensile and machining characteristics of brass make it a better choice than copper as long as the sectional areas are increased proportionately to achieve the conductivity that a copper part would have in the application. Size for size, however, copper is exceeded only by silver among the materials commonly used for electrical applications."
-BlueSea

The true test is under a high load what is the voltage drop. That will also show as thermal energy in a IR Camera.

Plenty of room here for a real world test.
 
I bought myself these Blue Sea busbars with the overpriced covers:

My main class-T fuse is rated for 125A so I'll be nowhere near its 250A rating. There is no question that the busbars are copper and thus they're pretty compact for their amp rating.

Brass is fine assuming it has enough cross sectional area for the amp rating. A lot of the Amazon ones are thin.
