Usa dealers for eve grade a cells

[ndamico]

Is there a list of reputable USA sources for grade a eve cells? I'm looking for 304ah cells.

Thanks

i have bought cells from this source before, and the cells arrived in good condition and packed very well with enough foam to protect from bumps. proper labeling also present.

no affiliation. good luck!

As the physical size is so similar I could go wither either 280 or 304. I was just going 304 as its more capacity. Will a grade b 304 outperform a grade a 280? I never pull more than 20a max. It's going on my land rover defender as as aux setup in a 4s configuration. General draw is 5a max. Charge is 30a max. My current 100a lifepo4 isn't big enough

outperform, in what way?

regarding capacity, i would anticipate the grade B 304 to have slightly more capacity than grade A 280.

both are same price, so the decision becomes, would you prefer to have 8.5% more expected energy storage, or grade A?

since your current ampere charge/discharge is only 30A max, my intuition says that the grade B cell higher capacity cell might be a "better deal" in some sense.

i am paranoid about cell lifetime so i go for grade a wherever possible, but with a 300 Ah cell and 30A max, that's 0.1C rate max. anything below 0.5C should be just fine (0.5C * 304Ah = 152 A) even a grade B cell should perform just fine.

hope this helps :D

Yes I always go foe grade a. Cost is not an issue. Just want the most capacity I can get. Capacity is what I meant by outperform, sorry.

I havent been able to find any grade a 304s that are usa stock.

I have been very happy with the 304 cells form sun fun kits, tested to 316 - 320 ah.

I have no complaints about Docan. They've been pretty good to a lot of people on here.
