[QUOTE="hispls, post: 8659096, member: 614752"] Kok power sells the connecting hardware but I shied away from dealing with them because they would not take credit card payments. I was not going to send money to China with no buyer protection! And western union or bank transfer adds some fees paid by the buyer. They're probably legit and they were friendly enough (we even spoke on the phone), but I went with: [URL="https://baiguan-battery.en.alibaba.com/?spm=a2700.8443308.0.0.63373e5fROL1Tc"]https://baiguan-battery.en.alibaba.com/?spm=a2700.8443308.0.0.63373e5fROL1Tc [/URL] As I said, I'll vouch for those guys. If you want the hardware might just buy the lot from Kok and report back on how they do when all is said and done. Looks like that quoted price is 28$ per cell delivered. This is probably what you'll pay from anybody. (yes the shipping really is that expensive). Wolfram will probably need to collect about 3$ per cell to ship from him to you, so what's the difference? 3$ per cell? Not that much in the grand scheme of this project. The only real margin for savings is someone organizing a group buy who can pick up the cells right at the port. As is these were delivered by UPS to me so you are paying twice for shipping after they hit the port in Oakland negating much of the savings you can get per unit by buying quantity. IF you feel very brave I had one seller trying to offer me an even better price but they wanted to deal outside of Alibaba and western union or bank transfer only. [/QUOTE]
