Bulk import of BMS'es - any interest?

… if your were also thinking of importing more of the 280ah Eva lithium cells?

3rd Group Buy - Grade A Fully Matched Lifepo4 Cells

A group of us are investigating getting 280ah or maybe even 310ah lithium 3.2v LifePo4 cells. Idea is to get 16 cell banks, 48v, with the Jaibaba BMS’es. Another idea is to get the group to buy a few extra cells, couple in Jhb, couple in Cpt, just in case there is a faulty cell, that can only be sorted in a future import. So just in case … If after a while all the cells in use are still performing as expected, then one can sell the “warranty” cells and share that back to all. Anyone else int…

We did that twice already.

The trick is, we need about ±130-200 cells per shipment. Shipping works cheaper per palette.

The R/$ exchange rate is to be betted on whilst watching the Covid LD’s in China, keeping an eye out for LS effect on harbors, not forgetting strikes at Transnet … or storm damage at harbors.

Ok, that sounds really bad … joke is we had most of that on the 2 imports, not the storm damage though.

And we had both shipments earmarked by SARS for inspection.

All the goods arrived in perfect shape though, if one is patient.

So yes, if there is a big enough order, I can run another one.
