LG to Get into Making Batteries

[Aushiker]

Bike Europe is reporting that ...

LG Chem (part of the Korean electronics giant LG) is reviewing a plan to plunge into the business of making e-bike batteries after seeing a clear sign that the market is indeed growing. This was reported yesterday by the Korean IT Times. After Samsung, Bosch and Panasonic this is he next world electronics player stepping into the e-bike market.

At least maybe more battery options, if not price decreases maybe.

They will probably be hooking up with a ebike producer to put together a custom retail package on a bike . Probably not anything that will be readily useful to the DIY builder.
Anyway, LG already make some good 18650 cells that can be used for our bike builds !
