Obviously not talking Blue Nova prices here! What do you mean by middle of the range batteries? Are most of the setups by blue nova / Hubble middle range. If so makes me wonder what savings really would be if they used same grade of battery.. . Edited January 6, 20233 yr by sunset1 Spelling

January 9, 20233 yr Lithium-cells.co.za have told me that they will have stock of the 230ah cells this week if anyone is looking. I haven't bought from them before. Just thought I would mention it here.

I haven't bought from them before. Just thought I would mention it here. My 2 cents. Dont know them but Looked at their cells. Seems no name brand. Probab safer to buy from other website with name brand cells such as EVE and then you at least know what you getting after spending all that money.
March 17, 20233 yr Hi Everyone. I have been reading this forum. I have purchased 30 cells at 2 seperate occasions from LifePo4-lithium.com 230ah EVE and they deliver within 3 days anywhere. They are from Gauteng. Everyone is scared of fraud and scams, me too. But this company you can call anytime and you speak to an Afrikaans guy. I did speak to him as I had my doubts. But this is not the 1st time I bought from them. Grade A stock and good communication and fast reliable delivery and packaging
March 17, 20233 yr Has anyone else bought from them? What terminals do the cell shave studs or threaded holes

It took around 60 days to arrive but was very happy with the packaging and quality. I am in the process of looking at ordering some cells again. PM me if you are interested. Maybe I can piggy back some extra cells. Hi, from where did you buy the cells?
