Need supplier for new primatic 3.2v 280ah cells

[Ashypow]

I currently have 24x275watt poly crystal panels.

Need reliable supplier for new 3.2v 280ah or greater prismatic cells to make my 48v system.

I live in a tropical climate (Jamaica). Therefore, NO low temperature risk.

I intend to also purchase a smart (120/240v) hybrid inverter which will only take power from the grid when needed (recommendations appreciated).

The system is for my residence.

I purchased 8 cells for a 24V system from Shenzen Basen as used by many in this forum. No issues so far.

I can comfortably recommend Luyuan and Amy Wan.
They carry Bulk Commodity 280's for $91 ea, or Factory Matched cells for $118 ea.

Im very happy with my MPP 3048 all_in_one system on my 48v LifePo4 battery. Gives me 120/240v split phase and 6kw of inverter power. I can run my entire (4000ft+) house from it. Its easy to setup and very reliable. You need 2 units to get the 240/120 split phase and connect them with a special cable. Cost around $1200 for the 2, shipped from Taiwan. Support was very good via email.

USA support. PIP-3048LV-MK 3kW 48V Solar Inverter 4kW PV MPPT, split phase** | eBay

3kW 120Vac 60Hz Pure Sine inverter output. REQUIRES A 48V BATTERY TO OPERATE - NO BATTERY = NO WORKIE! Stackable to 9 units, thats 27kW in Split Phase, Single Phase, Two Phase or Three Phase output (Three phase requires at least 3 units).

It has grid (or generator) backup and charging and supports lots of solar panels. Everything you need.

Yes, those are New Grade-A EVE's and yes, 2K for 16 cells delivered using the "Guestimator" pricing. You have to open a Chat / Messenger to get correct & accurate pricing.

What a great value. I worry about supply with these, now that power outages (texas) are back in the news.

I was considering building a 48V battery for the pole shed I am building on some property I purchased. I need something to run my camper's air conditioning at night during the dog days of summer, these should do nicely.

At present it is CNY (Chinese New Year), they begin to restart next week.

You could also check out Michael's group buy thread. He is in the states and can provide great support if there are any problems. I purchased 8 EVE cells and I think I was the first one. Happy camper here.

I am in the Dallas area but where I am we have not lost power. If we do I will be ready although I will be without heat. The power outages have been terrible and there is a lot of blame to go around. They couldn't even properly complete the rolling black outs so that has caused many to be without power for a long time.

Ok, this will be a longish post but I want to lay some foundation before taking orders on these cells. Eve 280ah cells appear to only be available at this point from suppliers that want a premium price for them From everything I can find, Lishen is extremely popular in China but has yet to get...

Thanks for the link, I'll check it out.

I'm not sure if the typical layman outside of Texas would know what ERCOT is, but I imagine it will be getting a lot of attention in the upcoming weeks. From the limited reading I have done, it sounds like they deserve some scrutiny. Stay warm!
