This auction is for 6x battery modules each with 196 cells in 14s14p (48v) configuration. The cells are all Samsung 3.6v 3000mah 30Q 18650 cells. The batteries are untested and being sold as is

Auction 1 ends in 54 hours, that is Monday, 18th March, 7pm, London time UTC or 3pm New York time (UTC -4h) / Bensalem, Pennsylvania
Auction 2 ends 24 hours later

They have had a couple of these lots come up. I wonder if they would actually function in a lift board or if they were bricked and just for harvesting cells.

Only a LIFT reseller (MacKiteboarding that has sold hundreds) or an affiliated maintenance center, could deliver pallets of such batteries. I assume they are maintenance returns so mostly bricked and good for harvesting cells.

Harvesting the cells takes time. Probably a good 3 hrs in total.
