 At gridville over the weekend a guy was selling 3 100ah LFPs for 200 bucks.  He’s on the grid but is getting his feet wet playing with solar.  These are a year old, 13.3v sitting, he’s upgrading to 280ah bats.  It was a boring raining Sunday so I bit.  I might stick one in my gas cart and another in the Onan genny and risk killing them.  Neither has a charging system to worry about.
 
 Redodo, where do they get these names…

 The REDODO batteries are fairly well reviewed and are "what it says on the label".   There are several Video reviews, some with full teardowns you can watch as well.
 
 Was that $200 for each or for all 3 ?
 Either way a good deal if not abused or defective.

 Hi Steve.  All 3 for 200.  Normally I would hesitate on used bats but he was just a real nice, obviously educated gent.  I’m getting to be the Lfp king around here. Still have the new ones I bought during the trump scare and my old Valances are still doing great.
 
 Thanks for the info.

 It’s not easy being cheap.
  but one thing my old LFPs have taught me, they last for years.  No fluid to deplete or corrode. The future of prices is still questionable, my $120 LFPs at Christmas are now about $150 but who knows how this whole tariff thing will pan out, not withholding I read that LFP prices should come down at some point like any other newish consumable. 
 Steve is the man for future lithium knowledge.

 Keep in mind that the vast majority of Tariffs & Counter Tariffs start in April.  You got one heck of a deal paulz and with great timing no less.

 Dielectric grease..  Good for solar or other low voltage connections, outside environment? Last time I think I had some was back in the points and condenser tune up kits.

 As I understand it dielectric grease is a sealing, not a connection grease. You start with a clean, dry connection and grease the outside and boots, etc. to prevent corrosion. It will not make a better 'connection'. Lots of info online.
 I'll bet Steve_S can give more info.

 OxGuard is a better way to go than using Dielectric (better for motive bulb sockets etc) Just a tiny dab will do (do not goop it on) to cover the contact surfaces and Bob's your Uncle.
