Some interesting looking stuff there. 5c, if close to true, lifepo4 for example.

I didn't see the Samsung cells though, link to the page for them please?

How many do you have to buy to get that price?

 

[ridethelightning]

thats right, its not on their site.
I got an email from them(tell ya those damn battery guys are interconnected!!) outa the blue.said theyd "heard i was looking for batteries"
i asked them(Pimkin) for price on samsung20R
thats the price for 100cell i think.
80$ for spotweld service labour,150ship to Aus..........wouldnt it be nice?

whats the lowest price these cells usually go for if they are the real thing?

 

[ridethelightning]

sory. that was price for 200cells.
i questioned the authenticity of their cells, they replied by saying "ofcourse they are, why not get a sample first"

Do you have the spec for these cells?

I can only see the specs here:

But can't see any 20R model?

The site looks very much in it's infancy.

I would be skeptical until someone (else ) posts a review of their work. For now, the ebay seller listed in migueralliart's thread sounds really good (good cells, service and price)
