[QUOTE="hispls, post: 8651562, member: 614752"] Interesting, are we certain these are Toshiba? If they're 3-5 years old used how do we know how they've been used? Seems to me that for that money I can buy brand new A123 cells from China, get batteries that'll definitely last 3 years 2-3000 cycles, save weight and have a higher C rating.... all without having to deal with the oddball 2.4V cells. Plenty of people use those cells for various projects but the C rating isn't very good for our purposes if you're not way over-sizing. If nobody knows somebody who knows somebody who can get legit Toshiba cells I think I'm going to go out on a limb and test some Chinese LTO cells and see what happens. I figure worst case scenario I can flip them on eBay.... not like car audio is the only thing people build their own battery cells for these days... in fact I think between electric bikes, cars, and various meme energy storage applications, we use a very small fraction.
