The LFP battery patents are going to expire this year so maybe NAFTA LFP manufacturing in the near future.
Buying from China is now a headache.

LFP chemistry is very robust and safe with large cycle life at 10-90% but the tradeoff is energy density which is just fine for golf cart applications. Placing 16 blades in series is an ideal golf cart solution...Maybe even 16s2p at that price! I suspect any LFP BMS will work just fine. Peak current is a concern...I want to program my cart to pull wheelies

The Internet is a fascinating virtual brain extender...And yet most people still sit in front of their Idiot Box all day being programmed with blatant mindless stupidities
