Not like lately lately, prices were so bad for so long. Got a supplier you could recommend?

I had hoped to start by building a pack for my small car using something like b-grade prismatics or good salvage cells from batteryhookup.com.

Currently running 8kWh of lead-acid which as we know might as well be around 3kWh usable. Going to lithium would really make a car out if it, but the car itself is a weird old thing and not worth much so I don't want to invest a ton into it.
