Anyone know of a good source for replacements?
I posted about 3yrs ago and actually purchased some. Well, it's only now that I actually needed them, one ended up being a dud and now I have more I need replaced.

I know mixing capacities is probably a bad idea, but what are the major drawbacks of mixing in a couple of new 200ah cells with a 130ah pack?

would they just not cycle to full SOC ? I could balance them a little high even.

Any advice or experience would be appreciated. I think I'm up a creek with 130ah replacements, nowhere to be found.

Never heard about CALB with the capacity of 130ah, there are the models of all CALB Batteries
A guy with 1 post has never heard of them? lol.
They exist. They were apparently not that common, but the barcode label indicates 130ah. If I remember correctly, and it's been about 6 or 7 years, some of them were sold as 100ah batteries. They're the old blue style and the same size.

I purchased the pack used and then found another gentleman who I purchased more spares from loose.
