Local Sale / Southern California - USA

PRICE DROP!
$150 per module - 1.1kWh 5s
(about $136 per kWh)

Batteries (Samsung cells)are in excellent condition and have been sitting at or near storage voltage. Voltage is consistent across the entire batch.

Only sold in incrementsof 3 for a 15S (48v-63VDC) systems... compatible with many inverters like Victron, Outback, Magnum and more.

I have both "A" and "B" modules. The only difference is the terminal orientation so you can actually wire it up in series nicely. See below photo as an example.

Hello Crimp Daddy.

Im interested about the batteries as well as the laptop packs.

I couldnt find the video of Jehu reviewing them. Can you link it?

Also, for the laptop packs, how much are you thinking of charging? I live in the Bay Area and could totally drive down to Southern California to pick them up.

Feel free to text me! **********

PM me your contact information and we can have a phone conversation about it. Ill try and dig up some content from Jehu but its from some of his older videos where he was selling the same.

Thanks
 
So each battery is a 5s with a nominal voltage of 18.5?

Do you know the history of these batteries prior to your ownership?

Correct, each battery is a 5s with a nominal voltage of 18.5.

The voltages are pretty much like any other 18650 cell on the market.
Max 4.2
Nominal 3.8
Min 3.0
Cathode LiMn2O4 with LiNiO2

5 in Series per module
Manufactured by Bosch
Cells by Samsung

These are in excellent condition... they came out of a Fiat 500e EV Car that were salvaged by accident. Batteries are all in good shape.

Two different lots, but very similar. Many cells from each.
2013 Fiat 500e with 5500 miles and another car with 9200 miles on the packs.

These were destined for my own project, not for resale, but a recent work and home move put me in a condo complex where the HOA wont allow for any solar which puts a real damper on what I wanted to accomplish.

Here is some more photos and PDF details with an older ebay auction.

Very easy to hook up, very easy to connect a BMS as all the tabs are standard crimp spades. This build would have been very similar to Average Joe's build in a 1/2 height server cabinet. Take a look at my pictures, fits 3 deep and 2 wide so you can fit about 30 kWh (30 modules)into a 1/2 rack.

Its a lot less work, and much higher quality than building with random 18650s. If it wasn't for the move, I would have no interest in selling as I had spend a lot of time and effort acquiring these batteries. My only goal at this point is to break even. Here are some photos from the progress I made, along with the rack it was going to go in.

Do those cells (5s) have a BMS built in? (asking out of curiosity)

Negative. No BMS is built into this battery.

Consider it no different than five 18650 cells in series. Its pretty much the samein every way except for the size/shape/capacity.

If one was so inclined it is possible to remove these from the module/chassis/housing to get at the individual cells, but its generally more work than it's worth IMO. Its a lot easier to just use this in a 5s , 10s, or 15s configuration which works fine in many 48v setups.

This isn't my work, but its the same battery. This was dissembled and turned into a 4s setup. This is basically what it looks like under all the packaging,

Note: 235 watt hours per cell
5s = 1.175 kWh which lines up with the spec sheet
