What is the shipping cost & time if you don't mind my asking ?
The link says
1-199 Pieces US$330.68 maybe my math is funny, BUT the ad also says 4pcs. so $330 for 4 cells X 2 = $660 and he rest is shipping ? to make it $1260 ? call me confused.

 

[mndare]

See screen shot for shipping costs etc

 

[mndare]

You are not confused

 

[Steve_S]

A little further looking and voila... 8 indidual pieces
Damn, that's a good deal IMO. I'd imagine the S&H would be the same to Canada. Duties and such may not be nice but I didn't get smacked when I bought a full pack so I dunno. They don;t have a huge selection of batteries in general and seem like a small operation of resellers.

** your replied while I was typing. Happy to be less confused ! Hope your getting good stuff there ! Remember to let folks know how they turn out once they get here.

the price is for 4 280AH cells

 

[Darkstar]

Ahh! Thanks.

 

[mndare]

welcome. Alibaba definitely has the best prices if the product is as promised.

 

[Darkstar]

That's the rub, eh?

Thanks for the welcome..

 

[John Frum]

the price is for 4 280AH cells

Price seems very low for 3.5kw of lifepo4 battery.
Are these supposed to be grade A cells with a typical lifepo4 life expectancy?

 

[mndare]

Yes they are grade A and they are sending me a video of the capacity test and cell resistance for the 8 cells before they ship. This seller is in a category with Alibaba called "Trade Assurance"where if the product is not as promised then a full refund is given. In our communication thread they have stated that they are grade A new cells and will perform to spec as far as being properly matched, the capacity, and the internal resistance. I have asked all the right questions so that I have prove of what they state the product is. Worth the risk and if it turns out true lots of members on here can benifit. I have dealt with Alibaba before with no issues. There is a lot of paranoia by members on this site.

post a update when you get them! i m in canada also and those are definitly very interesting. The price make me a little nervous tho. but 8 of those would make a massive 560ah 12v battery bank for a Van and no need to upgrade the solar system as i would never be on a rush to recharge!!!

 

[JIMMY]

I am looking forward to your results.

Do you know what manufacturer these are?

They look like CATL?

Will do, I have everything like Will does to do a capacity test once I get them. They are guaranteed to ship within 4 days by Alibaba by air all duties and taxes included delivered to my door in Squamish. This will bring my sailboat up to a massive capacity of 1240 AH/14.88 KWH. Where are you located with your van project?
