Hello all, as the title says, I will be looking to source some 300-325 amp-hour cells in the very near future to replace an aging FLA bank.

I decided on four 24v 600+ ahr battery banks using a 2p8s configuration. These banks will be paralleled with each other to form a large single bank. This will require a significant investment on my part and I don’t want any surprises when my 64+ cells arrive.

I have been going thru these forums for the last three days and I can’t get a consensus on where there is a more or less honest place to buy cells with US stock. Trusted vendors a few years back now have been caught selling relasered QR codes, others ghost you if you have problems, the list goes on. I don’t want to feel ripped off if I can help it.

That being said, I am looking for something like grade A EVE 302 or 314’s. If I can get these cells (relatively) matched it would be better. EV grade would be best, if available, but it may be out on my price range. I am also open to using other manufacturers cells too if better suited for this project.

Bottom line is I need all these cells to preform uniformly since they will be part of a larger bank.

Thank you in advance.

I've got the EVE grade A 304's and no, I wouldn't trust anyone. For me it was more about shipping and time so I picked a vendor that had stock here in the USA.
I like mine and abused them in 122F heat last summer day after day although that may take the life out at the big-end and not now. The pack worked great in those temps which I was happy about. Last thing I wanted was a burning chip smell or something lol.
