For Sale Gen 2 HV battery built using 2015 modules. $950

Up for your consideration is another Gen 2 HV Battery built with modules with a manufacturing date code of June 09, 2015. These were sourced from a wrecked 2015 Prius with approximately 30k miles.

As always:

1. All modules were fully tested prior to assembly. Manufacture date code 096Q 9th day of June, 2015
2. NEW Toyota voltage sensing wire harness and busbars
3. New main cables
4. New safety plug harness/cables.
5. GUARANTEED for 3 YEARS.
6. This battery will fit any 2004-2009 Prius.

Fully tested after assembly by installing in my 2007 for several days. It has been removed from my car and is now on the shelf, ready to go to a new owner.

I was able to purchase the "wreck" battery at a pretty reasonable cost and was present while it was being removed from the car. I'm happy to pass the savings on to the next person. This battery is available for $950 + your old battery. This includes driving to your location (within 4 hours of Columbia, SC), installation and testing.

Feel free to contact me if there are any questions.

 

Manufacture date codes are June 9th, 2015. Factory installed in new car probably within 2 months, so looking at first use somewhere around August 2015. Battery was removed from wrecked car about a month ago, so probably safe to assume the car had been out of commission for 6-12 months while going through the wreck/insurance/auction/acquisition routine. The car probably had 3 years of use on it, which makes sense for the miles.....but, no big deal.

Look around and price what the big rebuilders are charging. There's plenty of threads on the forum of people paying 1200-1500+ to have a rebuilt battery installed by a "come to you" business. Do you think those batteries are built using June 9, 2015 manufactured modules? Do you think they have all NEW wire harnesses/cables? Do you think they're tested in a car for a week or two? I'm pretty sure there's upcharge if you want that....The majority of failures I'm seeing are 2005-2007. That puts the OEM batteries around 12-14 years old. There's no reason at all that this battery shouldn't last until the 2027 -2030 range. This battery is effectively the last one that a Gen 2 owner will ever need to have installed in their car, and is certainly more reliable than 99% of the others that are out there being sold.


Wait until you guys see my test results from the Dorman battery I just repaired. And if I remember right, it's modules are coded for late 2003 or early 2004. You guys have seen the TV commercial where the 75 year old guy looks like superman? It's going to blow your minds. I honestly don't know if anyone's going to believe it................tried to load the screen captures from my phone but had problems getting the computer to recognize phone. Hopefully just a bad cord. I'll find out tonight. I think I'll make a whole new thread to cover the cycling/testing of those modules.

I'll make that thread for test results. Maybe we can get a string of results from various vehicles, old, new, rebuilt, whatever
I would say anyone with a Dr Prius app or Hybrid Assistant app, please do a battery test. Post your battery history (OEM, factory replacement, rebuild etc) and what the results are. I'll get the Dr Prius app so I can post that along with my Hybrid Assistant app results.
