[ausev] Lithium battery suppliers to the public for use in conversion

[Marc Kohler]

On their pricing page they mention 1000 cycles,
But on their specs page 
http://www.everspring.net/txt/product-battery-LFP40AHA.htm chart 4
it crosses 80% of original capacity somewhere between 250-500 cycles.
I wonder what they consider end of life conditions.

I've ordered some ThunderSky LFP-260s through EverSpring:
http://www.everspring.net/txt/product-battery-pricing.htm
There are several other sources of ThunderSky batteries; if you want to 
look into them, I can supply URLs.  I decided EverSpring was probably 
the safest way to go, not necessarily the cheapest.

So far, my order seems to be going smoothly; the batteries are (I 
think) in Houston awaiting customs clearing.
