Good stuff, reasonable prices. Got a bunch of nickel strip and battery PCB boards for a build, I’m stoked.

I will place an order at www.queenbattery.com.cn

Here a quote I received from them

SAMSUNG INR21700-48G 10A 4800mAh battery cell
Quotation :3.5usd/pcs

Maybe there is an interest in other cells and we can order together.
Shipping will be to 90058 via Fedex.

Ordered from IMR never had problems and when I ordered they were actually cheaper than Nkon.

For comparison

$8/cell. 48G is discontinued at liionwholesale, and not listed at nkon.

Did they quote you on shipping?

What cells did you buy? 30q cells are almost a full dollar more on imr.

How hard are you running the vescs? These cells get pretty warm at 10a cont

so $1.08 shipping per cell, which makes it $4.58/cell – still much better than $8 (which doesn’t include shipping), and this is in a built pack.

Definitely interesting! But getting quotes back and forth, ick.

The build pack is 350usd/pack
830 USD incl. shipping for two packs 10S6P

6,92 USD per cell

3.5usd per cell if you take the single cell + shipping

For a Bajaboard G4X
Right now the pack is 10S9P on 30Q
With 12P I will put a 25% less load on the cell.

Goal is to get range and for top speed.

Instead of 48G I might got for the 50E.

I think the 50e is your best bet, 7 or 8 a max on each p group. The 50e can do up to 12a cont, but it gets warm

Okay, I emailed them and they sent a price sheet super quick. Wow!

Samsung 30Q 2.75usd/pcs
Samsung 30T 3.50usd/pcs
Samsung 40T 3.9usd/pcs
Sony VTC5A 3.9usd/pcs
Sony VTC6 2.9usd/pcs
NCR20650A 5.4usd/pc
NCR20650B 3.95usd/pc

QTY :50pcs , shipping cost :46usd by FEDEX
QTY :100pcs shipping cost :73usd by FEDEX

In the email it also says Min order:200-5K, but they quoted me shipping prices for 50 and 100 cells.

Prices are pretty nice! Undercutting nkon on 30Q/30T/40T I think. VTC6 is cheap! Can’t touch nkon’s VTC5A prices though.

A123 26650 is also cheap.

3 minute google says queenbattery is legit. Will do a big more digigng.

@klaus79856 thanks for posting! Definitely worth a look.

Yes they always answer my e-mails fast.
I found them on https://endless-sphere.com

As I order two packs which will be shipped in about 2 weeks, I only want to offer if someone needs cells next month to order them together to save time and shipping.
