There 48 volts and 2 are 14 amp hours and one is 10 amp hour. They are from a bike i sold what can i do with them. ? I tried selling them but it was a pain they use lg cells
 
Sold bike to pawn shop . Was lucky they even took bike . I dont even miss bike it was so damn heavy with stupid 20 inch wheels. Love my pedal bike way more
 
Any ideas? I assume there aretons of 18650s in them maybe just salvage them? I can only sell localy i wont ship litium cells to scary. or maybe build a ebike or use them for my solar system?
 
Shouldn't the prospective owner have need for at least one of this batteries?

I am assuming you have chargers for those batteries. You could integrate them in your solar system as they are right now; one way is to use them as backup for extended cloudy days.

While there are other ways to get energy from them, one option is to use a solar charge controller that is compatible with the voltage and amperage they output. Then that controller can be connected to your main batteries.

There are other factors that you should research, including whether or not you could keep them connected all the time. I simply don't know what systems you have and if the components will play nice with each other.
 
Has one i had 4 now i have 3 charger is gone with bike. i have a 48 volt ebkke motor but no controller or bike for it lol.

If you can recharge them and have Pos. & Neg. wire leads,
you could connect then to a 48V inverter for some low demand things

 
Offer on craigslist and if you cant get decent value from them tear apart for cells.likely 18650 or 21700. I have one now that i will likely tear down .

Use them for water electrolysis to make hydrogen and wear a hydrogen powered jetpack (disguised as a daypack) with the next bike. Have to get past that pesky electric bike maximum speed limit somehow.
 
i lost interest in ebikes im ocd about stuff then loose interest lol. i just use a pedal bike now i figure at least if i peddle my heart may last me longer plus im back down till 152 pounds
