I'm interested.
Anything special about charging them?

Brew 2 to 12 cups of hot, delicious perked coffee in this powerful,
durable stainless steel percolator. Super-fast feature starts brewing
the second you plug it in and maintains cup-a-minute speed, then
automatically switches to "Keep Warm" temperature when perking is
complete. Cord is detachable for easy serving. Handle and knob stay
cool, and rolled edges ensure safe, easy handling. You choose from 4-,
8-, or 12-cup capacity.

Come on people step up!
You know you need one.
Coffee in the morning from a real live coffee maker.
You can even run a small microwave oven on one.

OK, these are bigger than the orange ones.
134 amp hour at the 20 hour rate, 122 amp hour at the 10 hour rate.
The orange batteries were rated at 92 amp hour but I don't
remember if
it was at the 10 or 20 hour rate.
These sell for $350 - $475 from discount retailers --- plus shipping
for a 100 lb battery so add another $50 - $75 for ground shipping to
that price.
They are a 10 year constant cycle design that should last 15+ years
only being cycled a handful of times per year. This batch is
manufacture dated 2004 and newer and they were pulled from
service in
late 2007/early 2008. Once again, these were used in
telecommunications as backup batteries and were probably only cycled
once or twice during their online life. All of them are tested prior
to shipping them to me.
I've been putting money back to buy more batteries -- but, here's
the
catch, I can only afford 7 or 8 of these to put in the UPS's here at
the office. This is a warehouse pallet sale and they MUST be
purchased
in lots of 16.
I have to pre-sell at least 8 of these at $275 each then max out my
credit card (putting money back means not running the card up
<grin>).
Shipping to TCB buyers will have to be by TCB express.
If I can sell 7 I can probably eat the extra $275 for a while if
there's a late buyer, or, knowing me, I'll end up finding a use for
the extra.
The ones I sell have to be prepaid sales. I just don't have the cash
or credit to be an entrepreneur on this one.
Anyone interested let me know. If there is enough interest we'll
start
figuring out how to get the money into my bank account.
These are, of course, on a first come basis by my contact so
depending
on who else he's talking to these could be gone tomorrow, or
still in
the warehouse in a month. Speed would be a good idea though.
Thanks,
Gerald
