Anyone seen New Lithium Battery Modules advertised on Offerup? Not Nexcell

There are several people online hustling these plastic copies of prismatics. I've not seen any one running them !

 

Why would anyone want to mess with Lithium batteries? Without a properly engineered battery management system, they can catch fire. Surely that should deter you right? These are very dangerous batteries, why do you think there are warning labels on all the shipments you receive with Lithium batteries in them? If your car wasn't engineered with them, best not to introduce it

 

OfferUp, yea that's the trusted platform where I would look for buying a major HV battery unit for a Prius and trust every word written by the seller. A new factory OEM battery isn't that far off in price than these sus battery packs.

 

Jacks customers all say the ecu is the bms and does the job well. We all know what the real answer is now.

 

Right, and when Toyota builds a car with Lithium, they put in an ECU with as many channels as the battery has cells, and a volt-sense harness with that many wires. The ECU and harness that come with NiMH are not that, because it would be overkill for NiMH.

 

MMM, the car is not engineered for aftermarket parts, best not to use them......

 

That's correct. Many aftermarket parts are inferior to OEM. They are built with a lower quality standard and offered at a lower price.
