    damn are they going that fast? Would love another 1 or 2 Pylontechs - have a 3U cabinet

    Anyone need a Pylontech cabinet? One going cheap here. Think it holds 3 maybe?

    Pylontech have sent me 3 new US2000 batteries so if anybody is interested in the old batteries please make me an offer via PM.

    They are reporting 100% SOH but are showing signs of degradation, not sure if they can be resuscitated fully might make an interesting project for somebody more skilled than me.

    I got jspuds' Pylontechs. Some very bloated packs in them 😁

    It's LiFePO4, so not dangerous at all.

    The Pylontech US2000 have 3 internal battery packs in a 5S configuration each, this evening I have taken 3 out and combined them into a 48V nominal pack. It charges and discharges fine. Haven't done any capacity test yet but might see what range I get on my eBike with this 😂 or use it with my 48V inverter and a granny cable as an eJerryCan™ for one of my EVs to alleviate range anxiety 😎

    @shanemc30 - not sure if you are looking for new or top condition used Pylontech batteries or if you would be interested in one of mine. If so, feel free to send me a PM. I'm in Lucan

    For the craic. I charged the opportunity pack above up for a bit, then connected a cheap Chinese 48V inverter. Connected a heavy load (1000W heatgun) to it and I've been running that since. Well over an hour now and running perfectly. Checked with a mate of mine who is an expert in off grid and he said bloated cells do not necessarily mean any reduced capacity at all. Looks like he is right.
