    Powering RD6024 or XY6020L with HP DPS PD28 (460W) Server PS’s

    Has anyone considered putting several HP DPs units in series to power the RD Buck Power Supply (specially the 6018 or 6024)? I’m considering the XY6020 or the cheaper XY6020L as these units offer all the necessary features I need except current cutoff. I’m a big fan of the XYS3580 so I think...

    CALB CA100 Cells....YR-1030+ Says 0.22mR to 0.27mR But Capacity Test Results All Over the Place

    I work for a company that salvages lithium cells from batteries and we recently got some CALB CA100's. Capacity testing is all over the place from pretty much 0 to 99Ah. Weird thing is all the cells were near nominal voltage when removed from packs and while I know the YR meters can't read sub...

    Has Anyone Hacked A Battery Expansion Port?

    I know many of these power stations that offer expansion batteries have a proprietary cable but I'm just curious if anyone has found a way to hook up a battery of the proper voltage/chemistry and use that expansion port? Yes, I know you can use the solar input and either use the highest voltage...

    PowerQueen Terminal Threads

    Just want to double check, are the PowerQueen threads M8-1.25? Gotta buy a longer one because of this rats nest. Adding a thick lug.

    Converting an Offroad Camper from AGM to LiFePO4....and this is the manufacturers wiring job.

    So I bought two 12V 100Ah batteries to replace the AGM's that just never lasted long enough. Always needed to be recharged by the generator. Unfortunately the camper was stored somewhere I couldn't easily access it. Then my dad bought a storage unit for RV's and cars and shit so I have a nice...

    PowerQueen 100Ah Minis are $280 Shipped on eBay Through PowerQueen EU (Ship from California)

    I know some don’t care for pouch cells but I just bought two of these and even after tax I was well under $600. Capacity test was 105Ah/1364Wh and 105Ah/1365Wh with cutoff at 10V. Arrived at 13.123V and 3.682 milliohms and 3.674 milliohms measured on the terminal with an RC3563. My guess is made...

    Anyone seen Headways with this sticker on the cell or on the box?

    I bought these Headways off FleaBay a while back. The seller was selling them in groups of 2, 4, 8, 16, and 32. I put a bid in on an 8 pack at 3am one night and a week later I saw that I won something I barely remembered bidding on. Despite the old date code I thought I had done pretty well...

    96 Cell A123 ANR26650M1B on FleaBay for $99 Shipped. Tested 100% Amp Hours and 98% Watt Hours. Cut Into 12V Packs And Slides Into 30 Cal Can

    So I picked up one of these electric bus modules. After recently getting screwed on eBay with some Headways I wasn’t very optimistic but the price was too good to pass up since the seller was guaranteeing 90% capacity. At a 3A load (Sorry only have a DL24 and didn’t want to push it to 4A) I got...
