Re: [electricboats] importing batteries wholesale

Excellent information.  Thanks. 

You said that included shipping?  Did you negotiate that?  Currently it looks like an order the same as yours would be $5611.20 including shipping.

52 cells
$4524.00  52 cells
$1087.20 shipping

I successfully ordered 52 272Ah 3.2V Lishen batteries on Alibaba from Basen. I worked with Alex Chen. There was some confusion over the order being shipped -- the wrong shipment data got attached to my order. But all ended up fine in the end.  I tested 8 random batteries (out of the 52) and they turned out to be full power. (I'm no expert, and didn't do a perfect test. I just charged them up to 14.0V (4 in series - and less than a full charge), then hooked up a 12V heater and a shunt to measure. Measured at around 270Ah going from a 95% charge to a 10% charge. So things look great.)

The shipment was SUPER easy. Once I ordered it, I just had to wait. Then in around 7 weeks a FedEx truck showed up at my house and dropped off 26 boxes of very, very well packed batteries.

I feel very confident in re-ordering from Alex Chen at Basen again, and will likely do so again.  Cost, including shipping, was $4,483, which is $86.12 per 272Ah 3.2V LiFePO4 Lishen battery delivered to my door.
