Ok, I have for sale a large quantity of EnerSys 12V190F Telecom batteries that would be great for solar/wind/etc power storage. Top mounted terminals and hardware to have the terminal posts out front as well. These are roughly a year old , give or take a few months, but have never been used. They were bought from a telecom company that ended up not being able to use them. We have load tested several and they test fine. We will check voltage to make sure there are no dead cells before shipment. Shipment is done through Estes, the freight company we use on a daily basis at our business. They are simply taking up too much space in the warehouse, so price is going to be cheap to get them moving. Otherwise, we'll just scrap them soon to get credit from our manufacturer.
The minimum order is 4 batteries so that freight shipping becomes reasonable. Price? $699 per set of four plus freight. Shipping is from the central US so it is reasonable to each coast. Average shipping quote for four of these is right around $150, so expect a total around $850 for four of them. As always, the more you buy, the cheaper they get...and the better the shipping ratio becomes as well. Get 8 and you should be under $200 per battery to your door, which is nearly 1/3 retail cost on these.
