Liitokala 100ah do you know of a better deal?

[Fingers]

I'm looking for bargain lifepo4 batteries, I don't want to spend to much over £2000 for 12 100ah or 120ah.
Anyhow, I have found these on Aliexpress.

The price is about right, but I would have liked a communications port (I'm I being greedy), anyhow what do you think? Do you know of a better deal?

Are you going to use these in a 12 volt system? Just curious.

I really wanted 48volt but 24 would be ok as my solar array is only 2.7kw.
In the thinking stage is another 1kw possibly 2kw 90 degrees facing east, and even further away thoughts is wind power (more than likely never happen).
I'm guessing there maybe a problem with putting these in to 48volt?

If you connect the batteries in series, the BMS must be able to handle the internal sum of the batteries voltage. Look at the specs on the batteries about series connecting them or ask the seller.

Do a search here on the forum for Liitokala. There have been tons of complaints about the batteries they sell. I don't think I would ever buy anything from them. Fact is, I am a bit surprised that they have not change their name on Aliexpress.

Ahh, thank you for the warning.

Anyone recommend good batteries, at a reasonable price?
