That is nice ! I was just wondering , since these battery's don't need to be load balance then why do they cost so much from you guy's ?

cool battery, and if it has the same function of a full battery then that would be the way to go (I think)... but yea, hella expensive!!

Yeah each battery these guy's are selling is $100.00 mark up !

The $250.00 battery has 8 cells in it . each cell is $12.00

12x8 = $96.00 , plus tabs to solder them together , " $100.00 "

The small batter has 4 cells . Each cell $12.00

12x4=$48.00 ,plus tabs to solder them together =$52.00

So they want $160.00 for the SMALL BATTERY - make yourself "$52.00
and
$250.00 for the BIG BATTERY make yourself "$96.00"

We just received a batch of the Speedcell batteries with "Quick Releases". This will allow you to remove the battery quickly and safely for any reason.

We are installing quick releases on several of our project bikes so we can use just one battery for all seven of our current project bikes.

The quick release battery is a $35 option and will bolt up directly to your current wiring and fit in your original box.
