Hi guys,

New here on this forum. Been checking it a while since we've bought an older RV which we want to make more off-grid.
One of the components we need is an Lifepo4 battery. Not really looking for an DIY system so that's why I'm posting here.

Was looking on Ebay for different models and came across a very cheap 200Ah 12V model from electroVolt.
It says the company went under and they bought the remaining stock. Here you can find the one I'm talking about: https://www.ebay.com/itm/394185316616

It seems to be good to be true but bought one anyways just to check it out (hopefully Ebay protection program will help should it be a scam).
Anyone here either bought the same or know electroVolt?

Here is a link to their website: http://www.electrovolt.com/.
 
Update: order is officially in transit. Will let you know the results when the battery is arrived.
 
I bought some of these and just finished capacity testing them. The 75Ah batteries achieved 85Ah pretty consistently across the four that I tested. So they look like grade A cells within. Or I guess they could be heavily cycled 90/100Ah cells... I don't really want to tear them apart to check. :)
