    Gusto ko sana sumubok ng DIY power walls. Kahit small projects lang (tipong pang DSL Router or LCD TV).
    Kaso wala akong makitang bulk sellers.

    Are these authentic 18650s? Worry ko pag bumili fake ones sa Lazada or cheap ones baka ampaw ang laman and di tatagal, or worse, makasira pa ng gamit.

    I just have a few electronic items (not vape) that I want to use longer thus the need for high mAH capacity.

    If so san ok bumili? No treally planning on making a pack out of it

    You have to test those 18650s before using it in a battery pack/powerwall.
    Kahit brand new, tine-test nila.

    I watched some youtube vids on this. Testing is easy. Need lang ng charging device na may LED display to show voltage ng bawal battery.

    Assembly (soldering) and the electronic stuff and mahirap.

    I'm not planning to use it as a pack. Planning to use 18650 as individual battery for some of my electronic gadgets.

    engine or motor numbers are simply ID numbers of the engine.

    During the old days (more than 10 years ago) kailangan mo ng local receipt from an authorized seller ng engine.

    Di ka pwedeng bumili ng engine from US/Japan tapos ibox mo papunta dito... Not unless dumaan ka sa local importer.

    Not sure about current LTO rules, pero if thats the case... Kailangan may authorized shop ka for the engine para tanggapin nila yung serial number ng electric motor.

    PUVs meet the 60km/h max speed LTO requirement.

    the local importer usually provides the paper trail.

    i am guessing, that if the private user be the importer, he might get saddled with all manner of local import taxes and other requirements.

    as i've said i've got battery technology all figured out already. this is the kind of authenticity testing that i do. by comparing discharge curves against a reference curve, authenticity is guaranteed 100%

    PM me. i sell these things

    btw the pack seen above is spot-welded, not soldered
