Need a new lithium pack
 
I've been out of the game for about 1-2 years since my last lithium pack died. I need to get my cart back on the road and I'm sure a little bit has changed with the lithium packs available now. Last I was on, the better option was still the Nissan Leaf packs.

I'm running a 48v setup with AMD 7144, Alltrax XCT500A, HD 400A Solenoid and 2g Cables.

Can anyone tell me what the best 'bang-for-the-buck' lithium pack is right now in the 80-120AH range? I'll need a charge controller and charger with the pack. I'm willing to pay a little extra for something plug-n-play and ready to drop-in (I realize the lithium packs are not completely drop-in\turn-key).

Links to listings or websites would be awesome (feel free to DM me if public postings of this are not allowed).

THANK YOU THANK YOU!!

The most popular are the Leaf packs, RoyPow, and Chevy Volt packs. Only the RoyPow is plug-n-play...mostly. The others will require some work. Sure seems from the posts that all are working well.

I just ordered these batteries to replace my Leaf batteries. With the proper BMS these will be as close to drop in as you can get w/o the high price. Drawback: It takes up to 90 days to get.

All I paid was the price listed plus $63 tax. Free shipping.

Those look really interesting. At max 5c continuous discharge your max safe output will be 450a which should be plenty.

Please let us know how they work out. Could be yet another good option!!

Why are you replacing your Leaf modules?

Yes, do tell. I'm curious why and how many miles or charges you had etc.

That would appear to be a very good deal! Looking forward to the report.
