Hi all,

Been looking for a large downtube battery for my BBS01 350w mid drive motor, and came across this


Looking to get the 23.4ah 36v which uses the Samsung INR18650-35E(3350mAh) cells

Has anyone got any views on the suitability of this for my motor? Do I need the 20a or the 25a BMS ?

Does this look like a good deal ? Anyone got any experience with Greenbikekit ?

Cheers

Where did you get £239 from? I would have thought that it'll be a lot dearer than that. By the time you add shipping and tax it must be at least £300. Choose a BMS with at least 5A headroom.

GBK are pretty good. They've been around for a long time. I've had about 5 orders from them.

Click on the link, configure, add postage, then £239...I know, too good to be true?

GBK are as good as all the other vendors.
The price with delivery is silly for 10s 7p 35E if they are genuine cells, allow vat and duty on the deal as well, so possibly another £45 or £50.

Good to know GBK are legit. So, these are good cells for my motor (350w BBs01) and I need the 25a BMS ?

cheers
