Hi Gregg,I have what I believe to be the same LG Chem cells but configured in 2P modules (instead of 3P Bolt style). They did well on simple bench tests. I'd like to compare them physically side by side sometime if its convenient.Kirk(Sent from phone)

This is great information, allowing them to be used more than I expected. Thanks, -Otmar, on mobile device.On May 25, 2020, at 11:03 AM, Gregg Swenson <greggswen at gmail.com> wrote:Thanks for sharing the vid...  Just FYI, I am using Bolt modules for my EV conversion (my GE E20 Electrak... thanks for sending me down that rabbit hole Otmar 😉).The modules are 36v nominal and are mechanically very sturdy with easy access to the BMS headers.  Perfect for replacing the 6 Trojans in the Electrak (fitting two paralleled Bolt modules under the seat).  They'd also be great for old school Zap conversions (X2) to lithium (72v).Pics attached.GreggOn Mon, May 25, 2020, 9:59 AM Otmar <forum at evcl.com> wrote:Yes, I agree the Leaf packs seemed to be missing, especially since they discussed the Bolt which seems a uncommon pack to use here. Also missing is the Volt pack that’s so valuable for high power low energy packs. Maybe they will expand the series in the future. -Otmar, on mobile device.On May 24, 2020, at 9:10 PM, Kirk Swaney <kirk at shiftev.com> wrote:

  
   
 
 
  
   That is a nice overview Otmar. Thanks for sharing. I was a bit surprised the Leaf e-Plus 40kWh and 60kWh packs werent included. Perhaps availability is a challenge there too.

    Hello friends,
   
   
    I hope your COVID days are going well.
   
   
    
   
   
    I noticed a video today that reviews some of the batteries that are available for conversions from OEM vehicles.
   
   
    It seems to be a nice overview.
