Good Day! ?
It looks like there are several Canadians on this forum which is really great to see. I'm in southern Alberta and very interested in getting my own LiFePo4 pack build underway. The first thing I immediately realized was how ludicrous the cost of shipping is to get raw lithium cells delivered to Canada. If I lived 6 hours south, the shipping would be free and I could actually get these cells at a decent price. I would love to start following Will's teachings but not at double the price to get the hardware to my door.
I am hoping that we True North Canucks can work together to find alternative solutions or persuade our political leaders to allow us to be DIY enthusiasts. I am not a political person but we do have an important election coming up so we should take this opportunity to send a strong message to our representatives that are wanting our votes that Lithium shipping costs need to change. ?
