cheapest 36 volt NiMh pack from the UK

Anyone know of a good source? Don`t care whether cased or not.
Cellpack solutions seem to be out of the ebike battery business
I am looking for 9Ah or higher with 36 volts of fun.

I don't know of a cheap pack now, all seem to have leapt in price. If you could build with button end cells, using a quick solder method, here's D cells at only £8.50 for two, and 11Ah at that. Looks too good to be true, and I can't vouch for the quality, but that works out to £127.50 for a 36 volt group of 30.

Ahh well. I probably would give building a pack a go if they were tagged. Not so sure about the pipped ones.

£4.25 a cell is pretty cheap indeed

Quick solder method

What is the quick solder method?

That referred to a debate we had in here recently Derrick. It just refers to using a large and very hot iron to solder the cells with the briefest contact time possible to avoid heating the cells excessively. Those of us who have soldered cells for years without problems use this method.
