FEELER - Panasonic 18650 protected 3400mAh button top batteries and waterproof storage case - POTENTIAL GROUP BUY

if the price is right :wink:

Just sent an enquiry email as the rough price Borked gave me seems truly excellent.

Minimum for each order = 10 cases & 20 batteries? Wow, I doubt many can afford it even if the price is good.

I don’t understand why we can’t just get rough pricing here? AFAIK there’s no MAP or anything for this.

Minimum is probably 5 cases / 10 batteries…

I don’t even have a use for 20 18650 batteries… yet. :stuck_out_tongue:

If you build it, they will come.

This may help you. Just copy/paste my message below and send it to “Attention Ben: Panasonic Battery Deal” at service@banggood.com
Just change your country.

Hello Ben,

Concerning the Panasonic battery deal on BLF:

How much is the delivered price to the US for 20 batteries & 10 cases for each lot of the following?

Flat top

Button Top

Protected

Thanks,

also, I don’t know about other countries but in my country you can import up to 5 pieces of identical item in one batch, more than that can only go through importing company because it is considered as a commercial quantity (as if I want to sale them) and that proces is several time more expensive than batteries would be itself, if I order 20 batteries + 10 cases it would be returned straight to seller without any notification send to me… Stupid, but cant do anything about that

How aggravating that must be! What country are you in?

Serbia… it’s sometimes funny how stupid customs workers can be, a guy that I know ordered 5 pairs of insoles for shoes but they considered that as 10 pieces and returned back to seller :slight_smile:

Will he guarantee the protection uses Seiko IC & quality MOSFETs? Provide pictures?

Too many report of unknown protection failing. The false sense of security could be worse then straight up unprotected.

RMM’s Panasonic NCR18650B Protected 3400mAh
Seiko IC and 3 x AO8814 MOSFETs. Best deal with real protection. Before RMM you had to overpay by going with something like keeppower to get quality protection. He does ships internationally (post 47).

If you need unprotected for lights that just won’t fit anything else then ok.

~ edit to be less harsh ~

Those sound like the over-controlling laws set forth by a CPF dictator… Id be absolutely furious. Im sorry you have to deal with such crap.

Don’t worry, when the Affordable Battery Act is enacted, you’ll be able to keep the brand of batteries you like, and NO one will be able to force you to change chargers!

Bwahahahahahaha…love it!

Got an email back, $19.50/pair with a minimum purchase of 4 pairs.

Lol’d at him

Cheaper product with 3-5 week shipping at US prices… DEAL!11! :smiley:

:open_mouth:
Massive thumbs down.

Another prospective site is Aliexpress.
Several options for these batteries, with purchases up to 100 as a single lot possible.
Cheapest I saw there, was during cyber Monday for $620 ($860 normally) for 100.
Is what I used for a price beat.
Appears that the sellers over there are more willing to negotiate and you’re able to do this live in chat.

Honestly am bummed about this.
Thought I had negotiated a deal for all here, yet appears not to be the case.
Sending an email to find out what is going on.

Yep, it’s a shame, would have purchased more batteries if the price was right, regardless of the gimmicky “waterproof” case it may or may not have arrived in.

Im also done with banggood.

I asked for a price match on a pending order I had created for 20 panasonic NCR18650B that hadnt shipped yet. They didnt reply so I sent another email asking them to price match or refund my money. They replied AFTER the other deal had expired. Several emails later, they never responded to my question regarding the price match and ignored it completely in each email reply. They only offered to refund my money or ship the order.

STAY AWAY FROM BANGGOOD! |( Communicating with idiot wild baboons would have been far easier and less frustrating. I dont see how this company stays in business.

My CS agents name was “Nell”.

On wallbuys a protected pair is still 15$ and the case costs 1.5$ at fasttech …LOL
—————
16.6$ together.

I wouldn’t call this a good deal until the price falls below 15$ For your groupbuy
