Re: BMW hybrid battery group buy
Silly question time
And probably getting ahead of myself fought up with with fine details
Assuming we are successful .... Since some these batteries are not all going to be 96s out of the box as I expect they will be made up of for example BMW 330e which are only 5 modules each could I ask the following :
im assuming that the 5 modules packs would be kept as is ?
the extra module would be loose?
if in my case i have put down for 12 that would be 2 x 5 module packs, would we be trying keep the loose modules from the same (3rd) pack?
Could we have the option [depending on availability] to buy in my case lets say 15 modules instead of 12? [so i could either run 112s2p (plus spare) or 80s3p]
it doesn't really effect anything just curious really.
NOTE: Edited as old question was a little off

Perhaps not, but It's worth me asking a freight agent

Re: BMW hybrid battery group buy
if this is stiil an ongoing concern i would be up for 66 modules (99kwh).. at that price anyway..
thanks
thanks
Re: BMW hybrid battery group buy
I want to go for 18 modules if it is still possible.
Could pick them up somewhere in the Netherlands/NW Germany.

Re: BMW hybrid battery group buy
I was going to wait until my car is running but at this price I can't say no so put me down for 40kWh.
If it helps I live in Co. Armagh and own a van so willing to collect for others and bring into UK or Ireland for as near cost price as I can make it. Depending on where the container is landed of course.

Re: BMW hybrid battery group buy
Is there any time frame on when this might move forward or do we still need more volume?
Re: BMW hybrid battery group buy
Hi I'm new here, but interested in 12 modules - depending on the feasibility of shipping to Australia.
I think there may be other Aussies who are looking at shipping as a group?

Re: BMW hybrid battery group buy
Michael, I am also one of the interested Australians.
I'd be interested in 36 modules.

Re: BMW hybrid battery group buy
I would also be interested in 24 modules if this is still happening?

Re: BMW hybrid battery group buy
Am also interested in joining this group buy. I am UK based.
My project design is not decided yet as am signed up for the course in Ireland in the Autumn but happy to commit now for at least 24 modules.

Hi Jaanus, thank you for your engagement!
I am interested in 60 modules.
And can pick them up in Germany if possible.

Hi, new here on the forum.
If its still open i would like to commit to 12 modules.

It’s going to be a long time before I can use them, but I could commit to 24 modules if this is still on.

Re: BMW hybrid battery group buy
Seems like there is some progress and the commitments should be in by the end of this week. If there are any peeps who want to join, please do so now and any current committers please think about your needs and whether they have changed. If all who are committed also please send me your e-mail addresses via PM so I can take further communication off the forum and make things happen faster.
Thank you all for you patience and engagement!

Re: BMW hybrid battery group buy
Hi,
as it goes to an end, I'm interested in 24 modules / 36kWh.
NW Germany.

Re: BMW hybrid battery group buy
Was it established whether they are going to be the old or new generation? It looks like if they are the old ones the energy density is way less than any of the other modules out there, which would make it a non starter for me.

Re: BMW hybrid battery group buy
Just out of interest has anyone gauged the power density?
How many Amps can these Gen3 or Gen4 packs provide pulsed?
34Amp hours Capacity. So safe C rate?
The main fuse seems to be 200amps so that’s around 6c.
I read earlier in the thread that Damien was interested for Lexus/Toyota inverter application? Doesn’t that inverter want 450+amps from the battery sometimes? Would that be ok if you ran 2 packs in parallel (custom fuse and Contactors and buss bars to handle the current)

Re: BMW hybrid battery group buy
As full voltage pack is about 9kWh you’d most likely want to parallel 2-3-4-5 or so packs. So this should be no problem at all.

Hi all,
Just new here and going to be a while before I can use them but I can commit to 12 modules/18KW.
