Too good to be true? Looking for advice/input

[iqyax]

Hi all, this is my first post here. I am looking for any input on this deal I found on AliExpress

https://m.aliexpress.com/item/4001083766967.html?spm=a2g0n.detail.0.0.7f4f7c27EHOHUo&gps-id=storeRecommendH5&scm=1007.18500.187585.0&scm_id=1007.18500.187585.0&scm-url=1007.18500.187585.0&pvid=d38668bb-e753-478e-a033-2288925e3592&_t=gps-id%3AstoreRecommendH5%2Cscm-url%3A1007.18500.187585.0%2Cpvid%3Ad38668bb-e753-478e-a033-2288925e3592%2Ctpp_buckets%3A668%230%23131923%2343_668%230%23131923%2343_668%23888%233325%238_668%23888%233325%238_668%232846%238111%231996_668%235811%2327169%233_668%232717%237559%2367__668%233374%2315176%23653_668%232846%238111%231996_668%235811%2327169%233_668%232717%237559%2367_668%233164%239976%23299_668%233374%2315176%23653&browser_id=3466cd82392b400c94548a0afa5a1a17&aff_trace_key=&aff_platform=msite&m_page_id=l4aygs245mycaaw617938a75ef71365b3b8613b749&gclid=

Whoa that is quite the url there

The listing seems to be for 16x 200Ah new Calb lifepo4 cells on sale for $1,335. By my math that is 9.6 kWh for a very cheap price.

Does anyone have any feedback or advice about these cells/this brand/this seller? They would be for a stationary off grid cabin battery bank so size/weight isn’t much of a concern.

Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

I bought from this store. They shipped very quickly. I had my cells in 32 days (Toronto, CAN). The cells were packaged well and came with bus bars. Physically, they were in great condition when they arrived. They were advertised as 310AH, but are all testing around 299-303. They have a very good (low) self discharge and hold around 3.53 after 24h. Overall, I am happy. I paid 1600 CAD (1200 USD at the time) for 8 cells, netting me about 7.2kWh

Thanks for the input. That sounds promising.

I’ve noticed they are selling quite fast, since I posted this thread, the quantity available has decreased by 5 units.

The price seams reasonable. I just bought sixteen 90ah EVE cells for about $600, that's 4,600 watt hours @ .13 ¢ per watt. They were good quality and all tested similar capacity. Your cells are about the same price.

The price is US $1,614.90 now. I like that the batteries members have posted about in the last week include shipping. No more guessing or waiting games.

Lucky you. There are still a few honest stores on aliexpress.com. It is difficult for them to stay in business because they can not compete with the every increasing scam stores -- that are highly supported by aliexpress.com. They make the highest profit because
they are the highest volume.
