20 x Leaf Cells

So I made the executive decision that I have too many batteries for my Handi project.
If I drop out 20 cells I only need one battery box, less BMS, interconnects etc..
Simplifies the whole thing really for me.
Originally I was just going to fill up the whole car.

So I have 20 Leaf cells (gen1) up for sale.
If you want some put your name down and how many you want.
Obviously its easier for me to sell 20 as a whole but will consider splitting if there are many small requests.
There are no bus bars or mounting hardware included.

I'll add some actual pics later but they look like this sample one:

Hmmm No.
I should probably do that anyway.

I still have them.
I am working on a constant power load to make cycle testing easier.
Once that is done I should know the capacity of each of the cells.

So, feasible to track down dud cells in existing pack and replace with your offerings ... mmm ... perhaps i should get a second hand LEAF v1.0? Looking now.

So currently I am building a constant power load to test all the cells I have.
That way I can get all the cell capacities so people will know what they are buying.
Probably best to wait a bit until I have tested all the cells.

I have finished making the bare PCB and in the process of loading the components.
I will test each cell at ~1C so each module will take about an hour to test.

Hi Richo,

Also interested in the lot, located in Perth and really looking forward to how the test goes.

Still populating.
I'm still aiming to starting testing the cells sometime next week.

Populating is finished, code is written, bench tests are done.
I had been waiting for the power Fuses for the power wiring.
The Leafs cell terminals are M6, my test PCB terminals are M6 but the fuses were M5 :roll:
Anyway I just need to make one more set of power leads - tomorrow(Friday).

Which means hopefully during the weekend I should have some tested.

Pfft. I used a bucket of water and a length of galv wire.
