Default Quantity buy around York, PA area interest?

Folks -

I noticed the meanwell site states "does not sell retail"... I take it some folks get them sold to them retail anyway, but if there's enough interest around the York, PA area in the US I'd be happy set up a group buy for a quantity discount.

I seem to be finding ways to discharge the battery pack without having long enough trips to fully get the SOC back fully up yet, and it seems silly to not simply plug the thing in to recharge it at home, probably sustaining my 61 - 67 mpg (7 mile each way) commute average more easily in the process, if not exceeding it. It would only be an occasional full topping-off balancing charge, usually simply to get it back near the top of the expected SOC range.

I would think the current limiting unit would be a good inclusion, to allow stable and non-overloading current and voltage regulation.

Regards,
Roger
