Someone mentioned here a month or so ago a company in Thailand(?) that bulk ships into Chinese territory where a second company does the mail out of the individual orders to take advantage of the Chinese Gov paying for shipping.

I'm not sure where the 30000mAh comes from.


It sounds better than 3Ah/

But 30000mAh _is_ 30 Ah.

Qoops Bugger, I'm going for a refund on these new glasses/

Partly because the Chinese govco picks up the shipping tab for these traders.

What makes you attribute only 5% efficiency?

Thanks very much for the info.

A lot of Hong Kong businesses ship via Singapore.

The 'made in China' and the probably poor electronics inside. Just an estimate, ok, could as well be 10% to be fair. That would reduce the charging time to 'only' 40 hours. Except of course if the battery would be 3 Ah instead of the 30 Ah advertised. That would reduce charge time to 4 hours. Optimistically.

"Normal" cells give a substantially higher efficiency, and even allowing for these being Chinese "rejects" I'd expect more than 10%.

But whatever.

The someone, who mentioned.

5th post down in the topic "Experiences with Futurlec". If that's dropped off your newsserver already then I pity you.
