Since its Paypal, i suspect its just a screw up and that it will be working soon. Either that or their account has been locked during some dumb fraud investigation or something customer related.
Mine comes in tomorrow canāt wait
well no wonder my order hadnāt shipped yet. Apparently my payment didnāt process, so i had to do it over.
Blarg.
Oh well iām not really ready for them yet anyway. I still need to find a good BMS.
Iād like to give a big thank you to @JLabs for taking your time and contacting the supplier and getting this thing to come to life! Thanks buddy
@longhairedboy I have a message to Bestech about pricing for their beefed-up BMS, in case batterysupports is now batteryclosedforgood.
No problem! Itās my contribution to the esk8 community!
I just emailed another company as well to see whatās up with this guy and how to get a sample or order anything or what the deal is. http://battery.kokpower.com/10s15a20a30a40a-c-107_155/bms-specifications-for-10s-60a-liion-battery-packs-p-821.html
They have a funny name. Iām still giggling inside.
@longhairedboy nice! Itās got heatsinks and looks over-engineered, in that good way! I found one at Bestech that is similar. Heheh re: their name! I guess they donāt do a ton of market research
if weāre going to do another group buy, it should be for BMSs. I would buy 3 or 4 of them.
I have 5 Shenzen 10S 30Amp BMSs sitting on my bench and i canāt touch them because theyāre allocated for space cell repairs. At least i think theyāre 30 amp. They may be the 60 amp variation. Meanwhile i canāt order any of my own from anyone, which is more infuriating than getting my hair caught in the dremel that one time.
But iām sure as soon as i found a supplier and got a sample theyāre go out of stock or out of business anyway, especially if i put it on instagram with any sort of good information. Maybe i should just take pics of my fucking food instead.
Iām down I need a bms. Lol
So this is the BMS that I used on my last project, itās from Bestech. BTW this is how you fit 10 pounds of shit in a 5 pound bucket! They have a minimum order of two and they were like $120 for both with shipping and what ever other charge they added. BTW that one LHB linked earlier, keep in mind it doesnāt have a connection for a switch, that needs to be factored in on the price. I specifically requested a connection for a switch! Otherwise you end up spending another $40-60 on an external high power switch.
Almost finished product!
yeah i keep hearing Bestech is the way to go. Iām going to start harass them now.
@longhairedboy If you end up having to buy a certain amount, just count me down for one, and Iāll paypal you some $$ for the BMS and shipping.
I think i can do better than that. Our buddies at liion wholesale may be willing to do a group buy on the Shenzen BMSs weāve seen in such elegant packs as the Space Cell. I offered some preliminary specs to see if they could do it, such as 60A/80A-ish , softswitch, solder points for fuel guage, heat sensors, and asked if they could have the fuel guage on but not the mains output while powered off and charging.
iāll post thier reply when i get it and then maybe start a thread and get orders from you guys if they can do it.
You daā man!! Iāve been harassing vendors as well. With less than amazing results. Sounds like a killer BMS! Iām on the edge of my seat. And of course, Iām in.
Iām in for a 10s bms.
just do it!
I need a bms too same isht!
FYI: Well looks like Batterysupports.com is back up and running. Apparently they were caught up partying like rockstars at the Qing Ming Festival.LOL
āSorry about the delay reply, we were having Qing Ming Festival, business just resume today. We were having some technical problem with Paypal, that eBay failed to process with Paypal payment. The problem is resolved, you may order it now. Sorry about the inconvenience.ā Regards Lilian SuPower Battery Customer Support eBay ID: supowerbattery111
You know they tore some shit upā¦
