What Is The Status Of EVBattery Center?
Two years ago I converted my '07 TXT to lithium using a turn key 36V pack from EVBattery Center in Las Vegas. I was very pleased with the unit and it has worked perfectly since I installed it.
A recent visit to their website shows very little in stock. Does anyone have any info on their status? |

Re: What Is The Status Of EVBattery Center?
I'll say what they have in stock vs what is shown on their website is two different things.
Best to contact Neli through email if there's anything in particular you're looking for. When I bought my charger and lithium modules from her last year, the website showed no stock, but Neli actually had over 50 in stock. Any questions, I'd contact PingEye3 to find out since he had a personal relationship with her and Nick before he passed. |

Re: What Is The Status Of EVBattery Center?
Oh, I didn't know that Nick had died. I knew he had some health issues at one point. I had some charger questions issues last year and Neli wasn't very helpful, but it could have been bad timing. I don't need anything at the current time but I was just curious about the company. Thank you for the reply.

If you order from her ask for all of the DIY pieces even if they don't have the ends. Also ask for the original BMS tap connectors. Clip off the old wire, a dab of solder to the tap wire, heat shrink and they work much better than ring terminals. Sent from my SM-G960U using Tapatalk |

Re: What Is The Status Of EVBattery Center?
When contacting Neli just know what you're wanting and she can let you know if she has it in stock. I think she has a lot to do now that Nick passed and keeping the website up to date is difficult especially knowing she's running the business solo, so don't rely on what the website says. She ships out on Wednesday and Fridays IIRC.
Everything I purchased from her (Leaf modules, tap harness leads for BMS, bus bars, threaded rods and terminal covers) showed "No Stock" when I ordered but she had them to me within a week. |

Re: What Is The Status Of EVBattery Center?
I just emailed them today and they had no leaf packs in stock. Not sure where to find them now

When I emailed her, she said she would not be selling them again.

Re: What Is The Status Of EVBattery Center?
Bummer! I liked working with them in the past. I guess we will have to find another reliable source of used Leaf batteries. (or start using something else)

Re: What Is The Status Of EVBattery Center?
Yeah, it's kind of got me stuck. I had planned on using Leaf batteries for my conversion, but can't find any I'd buy. I have seen some on eBay from greentec auto and tech direct, but when I contact them via eBay they have no information about the background of the batteries. new Volt batteries are looking better, but I'd really like to get that extra voltage. I have a 48 v cart.

Re: What Is The Status Of EVBattery Center?
Im in the same boat. Ive seen some other bmw batteries and such but unsure of what to use. I too like the leaf to gain a few volts.
