I'd rather buy from a Canadian supplier, and there are a couple that I know of in Vancouver so I may as well keep it close. I am pretty sure on this Nine Continental kit w/cycle analyst, $450 CAD. Seems pretty solid of a kit to me. Plus 48 A123 cells (Tech Ex eBay supplier) for $290 shipped for ~340Wh for up to ~20 miles range at 40km/h?

$750 for total system cost, plus a little custom work I might do to make a nice sealed aluminum battery box.

Do the calcs I made look right to you?
