Review of my purchase from Shenzen Luyuan Technology Co. LTD. Alibaba, Wan Amy,

Got a shipment from Amy. One cell was damaged. Tried to contact and no response. They are in China and have zero support and apparently they can ignore you after they get your money.
I'm switching to USA suppliers now. No more China. What am I to do ? Fly there with a team of lawyers to her apartment? Plus they are in bed with Putin and I believe sanctions are going to hit soon on all imports.
Are these the cells you are selling?
 
box was sealed. Leave me alone.

Mine were sealed as well:View attachment 87067

But they did not look like this (JBD BMS package)

So I'm curious how yours were damaged. It takes some pretty significant force to damage cells packed like this, the box must have shown significant damage. Care to share pictures?

FYI, my having a different experience does not make me a "communist". Deflection is an interesting thing, but sometimes it just doesn't work well and makes things suspect.
Thanks for trying Just John. People be people. :poop:

@John_B don’t leave comments here if you don’t want to contribute. We all are open minded about individual results and truly want to understand if there is a problem. If there is then we can either all work together to fix it or let everyone make there own educated decisions on how to move forward. If you want to vent then vent in a thread that says, “I want to vent about Putin and communism and my bad battery” and you will have a hoot of a time in it. If you want to get stuff done, learn something and help people out that are in the same boat as you then, this is the place.

I asked Amy a short while ago while getting a quote (she has a nice battery box for 16 of the EVE 105AH cells) and she hasn't been contacted.
Something is strange, perhaps he contacted the wrong Amy?
It seems he is selling the cells as "good condition" as well (I could be misunderstanding that part). Not exactly a lot of information to go on.

Don't know if people saw but all of Shenzhen got shut down for the week for Covid. I don't know how many more things can jump in the way for me. It's comical at this point. Just rolling with it.

Yes, Amy did mention that when I was asking for a quote. Said it would be delayed until next week.

Most of the folks I've contacted for batteries since the weekend have been radio silent. Only Amy W. has returned emails, although the pricing I received on Eve batteries was very high. This additional shutdown will not help pricing, that's for sure.

This is true, the cells are not getting cheaper. Probably worse if you are paying in rubles, USD is bad enough.

Post a picture of the damaged cell, would be extremely surprised, Luyuan packs cells very well, also are you associated with Solar Supply House ?
 
Because it never happened :rolleyes:

Because if you posted a picture of a cell that she didn't sell we could easily verify the serial number as she can give us her official spreadsheet with all her serial numbers.
 
The story from China is that things are shutting down. I communicate with them daily. I am a supplier and have inventory but we can not longer get them from China. If you can find them on AliExpress, they are most likely used. In addition, worldwide fuel prices are now doubling as they are here in California. Gas went up $1.30 overnight. I cannot post more information on where to get them due to updated vendor rules.
WOW, 9 Posts and NOW you are a Supplier too...
I am REPORTING this because your responses, challenges & accusations (Are you a commie crap) and such says you are a TROLL.
Who doesn't take a picture of a damaged cell... This is 2022 everyone can take a photo anywhere...
I suggest you go play on one of those Alternate Reality Sites, you may fit in better.
 
Post picture of the serial number as well where the whole cell and damage is in frame. We can email Amy and get to bottom of this very easily.

I didn't find your vitriol towards China particularly helpful, just saying.

That aside, the quality of your review leaves a lot to be desired - I'd like to believe you have a genuine complaint, but your refusal to answer some pretty basic questions about the transaction does make me wonder, if I'm honest.

(I say this as someone who has no horse in the game - never ordered from this vendor, no affiliate relationship with them, and as a neutral party interested in quality data)
 
John_B was actually solar supply house. Just spam cleaned his profile. Really awful person to work with and he gets offended anytime you ask for evidence. I've only had to cancel two affiliate programs in my life, big battery and solar supply house. Long story as to why. At least solar supply house had good cells, but never will I work with that company again.

I am listing his IP address so if he tries to create any more profiles I will take them down. That guy causes tons of drama for absolutely zero reason. Thank you for reporting.
 
Well, I hadn't checked this thread in quite some time. I missed a bunch of drama! lol. I just popped in to say that I now have all 16 cells assembled into 4 12v packs, in parallel, and they are working perfectly. Each 12v pack has it's own bms, and they are connected together through a Victron lynx power in, modified to have a megafuse on each pack. They charge and discharge fairly evenly. I've run the pack quite low just once. I think I took 980ah out of the 1120ah pack, and my system monitor actually attributes over 1126 ah to the pack. This is not an exact measurement, and I will probably never do a full capacity test(unless the weather is really bad), but it's good enough for me. The cells have never bloated. I'm using them a a low factor of C. Like, .06C charging, and less on discharging? They are bound together with kapton tape and zip ties, and are fitted very snugly in a foam-lined roadie crate that I picked up used. I had made compression rigs, but discarded them. Just want to say, once again, that I am happy with the goods I bought from Amy Wan. I'm only sad that I have no reason to buy more. I really want to:P
