    I am looking for a Gen 3 Battery case, all the goodies minus the cells. I want to build a New battery with the cylinder cells and then want to be able to build my old battery up for swapping into other cars as we rebuilt batteries etc. Not Rich, This isn't a Business. Anyone have one maybe from a purchase to rebuild a Gen 2 with Gen 3 Batteries?

    Would appreciate. I'm in NE Arizona so probably will need to have it shipped. Just let me know what you have, where you are and how much :)

    Thank!

    how much is it worth to you? Shipping must be really expensive, the case is massive and it comes with the fan

    I don't know. And guessing I should probably look for one in the 4 corners region just to potentially save a headache on shipping. Anyone in the southwest got one for sale? I don't mind a drive for the right price.

    Thanks!

    I'm in Los Angeles and I have a pretty new looking one sitting in my garage. I just need to know how much you think it's worth. AZ to CA is a bit of a drive though

    I'm confused as to why you don't just purchase a battery from a very late model wrecked Gen 3?

    I have not found anyone in my area selling a battery without swapping. That is my main issue. And I don't have a grand laying around for what it looks like most would ask for one.

    I have one, I'll sell it to you. Not sure what shipping will cost though. I'm in California

    You need it with the metal case?
    I can sell you one complete only without the cells for $160 and you pay shipping.

    Sorry I failed to close out this thread. I acquired one in LA and have since scored a smashed up Prius v that I shall be picking apart once it is no longer cold and windy as heck here in NE AZ. Appreciate your offer. I'm good at the moment.

    Thanks
