So, I am looking to add to my Powerwall (right now 14S 160p) as I feel I need more capacity. I would like to add 100 cells to each pack (I can simply stack a 100 P pack on to the back of existing packs to do this). My packs were made 100% of LG M26 (2600 mAh) cells gotten from medical packs that battery clearing house had. Sadly, those packs are gone. I have been looking for cells that would be close to the same capacity, as obviously if the add-on cells are of lower capacity, it will simply reduce the increase.
I found these:
I was so damn spoiled getting those LG cells for $0.50 a piece, it would hurt to get these, but they look like they would be a good fit. Anyone have any experience with these Moli Energy ICR-18650K cells?
Thanks
I found these:
3s3p Molicel Module with 9 2600mah 18650 Philips 86.58wh
Here are really nice Molicel medical modules. These have 9x ICR-18650K 2600mah cells inside and are in 3s3p configuration. The greatest thing about medical batteries is they don't get cycled too many times before they get recycled so these cells you can expect pretty good capacity readings. Also...
