The ship is heading towards Cpt harbor for docking.
I have a few interested parties for 12v banks, but thought to put it here too, “first option of refusal”.
For sale would be 16 x 280ah cells for R3500 each, +VAT if I must invoice for a business.
Also have a couple of AP20S003S BMS’es for sale.
They all have the RS485 port added.
And they can do 24v and 48v.
I’m thinking R2500 per BMS, +VAT if I must invoice.
This order is costing a few rands more, higher VAT due to R/$ increase as a result of the shipping being delayed, having to pay a bit extra for storage so that SARS can do an inspection.
Will test each cell first, before shipping on, by top-balancing them, then use them for a couple of days on a 12v system to check that the cells behave as expected.
The warranty is with the supplier.
I’m told that EVE gives 1 year, supplier adds 2 more, but being 1000’s of km’s away, it is a risk.
IF a cell becomes a warranty claim, they will ship a new one at the end buyer’s cost once they agree the cell is a factory fault. Batch Matched eliminates most of that risk, I believe.
Don’t have to send the cell back, I’m told.
… unless there is a 3rd Grouo Buy, then the cell can come with that order.
Notes:
It appears the next order could be as much as ±R500 more per cell, as the Alibaba prices have increased, the R/$ not good as it was on the previous buys, with the shipping becoming an interesting problem to solve. Will post on the group buy.
