Re: [electricboats] CAN to NMEA2000 motor data

Are LiFePO4 prices actually coming down?  What did you pay for your installed batteries?  

I purchased 8kWh batteries new in 2009.  The sixteen Thunder Sky TS-LFP160AHA 160Ah cells, including purchase price, tax, shipping to my driveway, inter-cell braided connectors, and autonomous mini-MBS boards were right around $3600 or about $0.45 per Wh.  The bare cells were $3326.60 delivered.  The connectors and BMS boards came from another vendor.  None of my recent research has come up with a comparable price, let alone cheaper.

People keep saying that our batteries are getting cheaper, but 10 years after I bought mine, I’m not seeing it.

Fair winds,
