Probably so, I ordered at the same time but I asked them to delay shipping. My order arrived Friday.

There was so much confusion with my order they canceled the bolted 18s modules that I purchased after running out of stock. They might have ran out of Samsung fomoco but maybe they are expecting more. So in a way this could be good news for those seeking the 47ah option. Hopefully they do get more stock.

FWIW, I received my second order of 47 Ah packs within a week of ordering them (last month). When I spoke with the owner last month, he mentioned they're getting lots of them in right now (something like QTY400). Be patient... there's no rush given that LiBCM doesn't support them yet.

It took them a while to ship my one sample pack also, but they eventually did

Looking for a set of G3 packs for a LiBCM conversion. Not for me but for a good friend here in Richmond.

I have 3 extra sets left. I had to buy a set of new bolted modules from Eric to finish the extra sets after BH goofed up their inventory.

I just looked at the Battery Hook up website. I see the Samsung batteries displayed for sale again....

 

[Recovering_Gasaholic]

There are 304 47ah modules in stock!

To anyone thinking "man I wish I had bought EHW5 modules back when they were $400/set":
-Now is the time to buy these 47 Ah 'FoMoCo' modules.
-I am 100% committed to offering a near drop-in 48S FoMoCo LiBCM solution... estimating early winter 2022. That'll be 8 kWh.
-I expect to eventually offer a 60S FoMoCo solution, too... no timeline. That'll be 10 kWh with even more power!

These FoMoCo modules are incredible, and offered at an incredible price.

It's entirely possible this will slip into 2023... if that's what you're implying here. I'm the first to admit I suck at predicting timelines. Unknown unknowns are difficult to predict, but even then I can't predict known unknowns... without a manager, I go where my brain wanders.

I'm confused, it's already 2022 xD. Winter has come and gone...?

Mine on order.

 

[eprom]

I ordered mine too

 

[weldoak]

And mine shipped! I know I won't be doing anything with them for a while but it'll be nice to finally have them.


Out of curiosity, has anybody tried to figure out if these modules are purchasable new? Obviously it'd be hilariously expensive right now for non recall packs, but 10+ years down the road (assuming the 10 year figure for lithium life is accurate in our case), what happens with pack availability with the Samsung modules as well as the EHW5 modules?

Provided your don't abuse the packs, they should last 15-20 years.

Also, there will be used packs available for both options.

You will simply move onto the new battery 'solution'.
Whatever that is in ten years time.

Honestly in 10-15 years, parts availability will be so bad that some things will physically put these cars off the road. Major components like, clutches, radiators, and common gaskets are getting discontinued/NLA month by month. Eventually you will be unable to find a clutch or a major gasket that will ultimately put these cars out of service.

The hardcore owners will just pony up and get these items remanufactured.
