Hello bright minds,
I apologize I'm not sure where to post this so I'm trying here.
I'm looking to buy 16x 300+AH batteries to build a nice ESS system. Probably EVE or CATL they seem to dominate the sites, I'm looking for 'the real deal' best possible grade brand new. No ripoff's of slight failures in testing that make them less quality (still referred by some websites as ESS solar grade A).
I don't want this forum to turn into a giant argument about vendors and scams, surely there has to be a few sellers that are known to consistently sell brand new perfect batteries.
I've read that Shenzhen Seplos Technology Co from off grid storage are good. I must admit ali-express scares me for batteries, though they have a long standing business and lots of good reviews but....ali-express. Now if people come back and say yep they are solid ok then. They wanted $400 in shipping which makes sense but also hurts the wallet. Another site I usually buy from redirected me to docan power which seems like a really good deal (free shipping AND no tax?!) I noticed everything was "grade A" but they had some listed as EV grade and ESS grade (still grade "A"). So I researched a bit and it looks like they are just coming up with their own terminology and likely are B grade cells. I have no idea.
I don't want to get ripped off with fake cells. I don't mind the shipping time, just want legit brand new 300+AH batteries. Same with shipping cost I'll bite the bullet and pay high shipping so long as I'm getting real brand new top of the line meets all specs no bulging ect.. batteries.
Another way to put it: From where would YOU feel comfortable putting batteries in your home?
Cheers.
Thanks in advance!!
