He's trying to sell the cell too, so there's going to be some 'talking up' that he'll be doing with it as well. I'm hoping his mark-up isn't as bad as the rest of the stuff he is selling. Granted it's business but there are others in business to that are willing to sell for less so the competition factor is there and nothing is stopping other vendors from selling the same product, including CALIB in California, who has been receptive and ready to answer questions and I know someone who got a great price, delivery, and warranty support from them too. I'm not sure how well Jack will be at providing warranty support, as with everything, time will tell.

That's not bad at all for an EVTV price. Has anyone pinged Keegan yet?

not to bad and the cells do come with nordlocks, ss screws, a simple nylon lifting rope, and the heavy braided straps.

I thought the energy density was the same, which is disappointing, but the power density is better.

Just emailed Keegan for price on some 130's but didn't specify blue or gray. Will see what he says.

A CALB rep has said the 130's aren't being made any more, so if you get any they will be the old blue SE's, and possibly odd leftovers.

well shoot, I better get on it and order some then! I've been wanting to pick up 2 more 130ah cells for my car (to replace a few of my weaker cells) but haven't gotten to it yet. Bummer they are discontinued.

From Keegan:

130Ah blue units - $157.30 ($1.21Ah) each cell, no stock. Will be available till first week of August.
- Connector contains busbar, bolts and washers, $2.00 per set.

100Ah Gray CA units - $128.00 each, in stock.

I'm wanting to replace some US Battery XC2200 232Ah batteries in a Genie GS-1930 scissor lift with lithium. Not sure which one is close for my application as I have to take Amp measurements to determine Ah when considering Peukert.

Saw this video and thought I'd share. Pretty impressive if not a little crude and dangerous.
