    How much are "new" refurb cells going for. I am hoping to get a lithium upgrade soon and my current battery is a 1 month old refurb

    For your 2001? That will probably be in the $2800+ range since the Gen 1 is 38 modules (Gen 2 is 28 modules and cost $2100ish?)

    Lotta green to put down to replace a battery that just got replaced.
