      Other Australian suppliers offer these cells for well over $100 per cell (please see here https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/295735004922?chn=ps&_ul=AU&var=5…)

      Drifted a bit past your normal humour/ entertainment…. I haven't seen you post this curiously demanding question about any other deal.
      What singled this one out for your stern pedantry?

    At $99 per cell it's the cheapest price for these cells in Australia.

    • FLICKIT on 23/04/2024 - 21:01

      cheapest price for these cells in Australia.

      and buying from overseas it's unlikely you'll actually get Grade-A cells…

  • alvian on 23/04/2024 - 21:04

    Are these new or used or refurbished or re-certified or …?

      Brand new from EVE. Not refurbished or recertified.

      They were bought by a wholesale customer and there was a miscommunication about what terminals they wanted. Hence the low price.

    • Igaf on 23/04/2024 - 21:26

      A grade. Cells should come with factory test reports and QR codes.

      • AssociatedRubenM @ Muller Energy on 23/04/2024 - 21:34

        Yep, both available!

        I prefer "automotive grade" to "a grade" though as there is no standard definition for "a grade" and you'd always have vendors claim that theirs are "a grade" no matter what.

      Better buy 60kWh worth then, just in case! 😉

    What do people do with these? Surely few people are diy electricians?

      This is ELV. As long as you don't cross over into LV (120V ripple free DC or 50V AC), you're allowed to DIY.

      People build high quality batteries with the cells.
      It's fun and fairly easy, here's a video of me building one (though with different cells): https://youtu.be/-rY0n1w4X9s?si=tUqryTxWd_mLxTUS

    So total of 840Ah or 8 cells with total of 104Ah

    If 840Ah total, what's the size of each cell

    • AssociatedRubenM @ Muller Energy on 23/04/2024 - 22:38

      You could build a 840Ah battery, but it would only be 3.2V, so not all that useful for most purposes. When you use cells in parallel, you add the capacity (Ah), when you connect them in series, you add the voltage (V).
      So by far the most common configurations I'd envisage for eight of these cells would be 8s1p or 24V 105Ah or 4s2p or 12V and 210Ah. Or of course two 12V 105Ah batteries.

      • DmytroP on 24/04/2024 - 10:55

        So in total should be about 2.6kWh, right? Sounds like a good price for such capacity.
        Wish the home batteries to be used with solar to reach this level of $/kWh.

        • AssociatedRubenM @ Muller Energy on 24/04/2024 - 11:32
          +2

          Yes, just over 2.6kWh.

          For fully built batteries, you also need to take into account the BMS, case, labour in assembly, etc. Depending on whether you want to have a DC-tied or AC-tied system you may or may not need an inverter and or MPPT. So there's some justification for prices being higher than for cells. If there's justification to have them that much higher, I don't know.
          We've got 5.1kWh batteries for $2299. Currently we don't have CEC accreditation for those, so they can't be sold for an on-grid solar battery (off-grid they can), but we'll get certifications and then we should be able to offer a pretty competitive solar battery. Still more expensive than the cells by themselves, but not outrageously so.

    Dimensions? Full datasheet?

  • doobey1231 on 24/04/2024 - 08:50

    Are these swap in swap out units for specific hybrids or EVs? Sorry OP just curious on how these all connect up, same sort of connector or is it a case of checking your vehicle before purchasing?

    • AssociatedRubenM @ Muller Energy on 24/04/2024 - 09:43

      I'm not aware whether these are in fact used in an EV, if they are, it would likely be in the Chinese market.

      They are definitely not intended for building a DIY traction battery for a commercial EV as they tend to run in the hundreds of volts and you would need an electrical licence to do this. Plus it's unlikely that the physical dimensions would be ideal for any EV in the Australian market.

      If you want to build your own lower voltage EV though, then by all means, this is possible.

      However the main purpose for these is generally smaller 12-48V batteries.

      I hope this answers your question.

      • doobey1231 on 24/04/2024 - 10:39

        Thanks mate it does, I am an auto elec and mech. Looking at buying a Toyota Crown in the near future and my only worry is changing the batteries out, I am very new to all this so really appreciate the info you could provide, more research needed!

    • Igaf on 24/04/2024 - 14:55

      If you want to learn a bit about vehicle battery packs this video is worth perusing doobey:
      https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hBbhevHZZ5E&ab_channel=Munro…

      Toyota's setup will be different obviously. Hybrid or full BEV?

      Her's something on the hybrid: https://infinitev.au/blogs/news/hybrid-replacement-battery-f…

  • dealbreaker on 24/04/2024 - 09:28

    What would you pair these with?
    Is there an inverter/bms that can monitor power consumption from the grid and run from batteries + power back to the grid and charge the batteries?
    I love the idea of DIY powerwall, not sure what the legalities of the electrical connection would be or how it would be insurance wise.

    • AssociatedRubenM @ Muller Energy on 24/04/2024 - 09:49

      You'll definitely need a BMS.
      Right now we have 200A and 250A smart JBD BMS in stock and we'll be getting a delivery of 150A ones early next month.

      If you want to invert it, then you'll obviously need an inverter as well. We carry the Victron range for this which are great.

      As for legalities, if you're doing this you definitely can't have your DIY battery grid connected as custom batteries don't have CEC approval.

      For insurance I can't give any advice as this will be specific to your specific insurance policy.
