Title: A123 / LiFePo4
Post by: Rajib on August 02, 2009, 07:31:48 PM
Hello

I am looking for LiFePO4 (Lithium Iron Phosphate) battery cell which also known as A123 battery system. Does anyone selling this battery in India? If yes then please let me know. Any information regarding sourcing this battery at reasonable rate will be appreciated.

Try http://www.hobbycity.com if you want pre-built packs or if you want individual cells, then https://www.aircraft-world.com is the place to go!

Hello Chan,
I was looking for Indian suppliers or seller. I knew about these two websites http://www.hobbycity.com & http://www.aircraft-world.com but they are both from outside of India. I am searching for individual cells instead of pre-built packs.

aircraft world postage is quite low and my batteries have arrived in 10-18 days with no problems. They also sell single celss.
Don't know about indian sellers.
By the way, Hyperion has LIFe TX batteries which charge upto 3.3 volts per cell. So that should be better than 3 cell lipos for tXs.

Both my A123 Rx packs (6.6V 2100 mAh) arrived after about 15 days.. Landed up with me as I was starting on my trip!! So no time to really go through the contents!  But still I would land up in Chennai on Monday and Tuesday my gasser would be flown with the A123 packs!! Have some soldering to do! And also I would eliminate all the BECs in my gasser now :)
