Would anyone out there be interested in Saft MR or MRE 100 batteries
at $500-$600 per block? I know they are expensive but I may be able
to get brand new ones manufactured at this price. I thought I would
see if there is any interest level.

Are these STM 5-100 MRE?
6V 100Ah Flooded Ni-Cd cells?
These appear to have been used in Renault Clio electric,
probably in other cars as well.

Though the price of $1 per Wh is excessive.
I think Li-Ion will beat that price already, so I wonder
who would want to buy these at this price.
I may be mistaken, we'll see the responses from others.

Yes. and that may be true but if there is a large purchase at a much
lower price then it may make sense to some. This is the same pack I
have in my think and they are available without the cooling. You can
drive them down to 0 and many of these have been going for 15 years
plus.

cycles and +10 years without loosing too much of capacity :^)
