Re: LiFePO4 Batteries

if you want to buy american, ep buddy and battlepack.com both sell LiFe cells and packs.

K2 battery has a pack that has a board in in that makes LiFe cells act like a sla battery. they also sell single cells.

Re: LiFePO4 Batteries

i think so. but i guess i phrased it wrong. what i meant to say was if you want to buy cells that won't take 4 weeks to arrive from china without currency exchange charges, these companies sell LiFe cells

Re: LiFePO4 Batteries

What are your requirements? You only gave a load and the description "tiny".

What else needs to be taken into consideration? Do you have a characterization of the motor(s)? How long would you need it to last? How long to charge? What is the lifespan requirement? What is the weight restriction? What are the operating conditions?

I was looking at the a123 batteries before. They seemed quite repute. However, I didn't know where to get high-capacity cells, and the decent capacity ones were expensivo
