Subject: [dorkbotsf-blabber] A Thousand FREE Lithium Batteries For YOU
To: Dorkbot-Blabber <dorkbotsf-blabber(a)googlegroups.com>
Hi all
An energy company donated a hundred thousand barely-used lithium
nanophosphate cells to my nonprofit org.
We need places to store them!
THE CELLS:
These are industrial-grade A123 High Power Lithium Nanophosphate
…
[View More]ANR26650M1A cells. They are authentic, strong and safe.
They are 26650—same height as 18650’s, but fatter.

Battery specs below.
THE DEAL:
In exchange for storing a few boxes of batteries, we’ll gift you approx
one- to two-thousand cells, free.
You could build some power walls, power a bunch of bicycles and portable
LED projects, etc.
We need to move the cells within a week.
Each box is approx 4’ x 2’ x 2’.
If we deliver to you, plz store 9 boxes minimum (we’ll have to rent a
truck).
If you pickup, then fewer boxes is fine.
Gift to you will be approx 1/10th of the cells you store.
WHY YOU SHOULD HELP US J
I founded a nonprofit org, to teach electronics to at-risk teens in SF. We
teach kids in the hood to solder, drill, assemble, and more.

BATTERY SPECS:
Datasheet: http://e-motion.lt/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/
ANR26650M1A_Datasheet.pdf
Safety spec: https://fmo.unl.edu/sds/lithiumionbattery.pdf
2.3Ah, 3.3V nominal each
Performance: 30C continuous discharge, 60C pulse
Recommended Charge: 3A to 3.6V CCCV, 45 min
Fast Charge: 10A to 3.6V CCCV, 15 min
Power: Over 3000W/kg and 5800W/L
Form factor: The cells are assembled in battery packs. Each pack contains
100 cells. These packs were used in an installation with strict
constraints, so they had to pull these packs from service at 75%-80%
capacity. In reality, most of the cells in each pack are in great
condition. You’ll want to break down the packs and pull the individual
cells.
Plz contact me ASAP by replying here, or at john(a)bayviewboom.org, or at
415-689-4335 <(415)%20689-4335>.
Thx!

I'm a commercial AV Integrator interested in using my extensive
installation skills for good. I can build just about anything, and
terminate cables like a professional (cause I am!) I can definitely devote
a few hours a week to pasting equipment on rooftops (or whatever
fabri-cobbling is required), have lots of my own tools and PPE, can run a
crew, am certified on all lifts and booms, and can improvise
fabrication-wise like a champ. Plus, I'm really pissed off about the
internet monopoly in …
[View More]this country and aims to do something about it.
How can I help, in my off hours and the weekend?
