    I had bought the lithium prius pack from Nexpower(formally known a Nexcell) back in 2023 and now the pack has given me the code p3000. I had researched why the code came up and it was due to block 8 in my pack failing due to cold temperatures below 30f. The Nexpower website even admits to the failure of the lithium cells which is why they switched to Sodium. I merely wanted to find a way to get a replacement block but since the website no longer deals with lithium cells there is no way for me to buy a replacement block. Is anyone selling individual blocks? I tried to email the nexpower company but their only response was for me to buy their sodium pack for 1k which I cannot afford. If anyone has a spare lithium block I can purchase or if anyone knows a way I can somehow repair the block please let me know thank you.

    I'm sure one of the guys here who pushed these as the greatest thing since sliced bread will be right along to help you out. Maybe even offer to send you a free one.

    How-a-bout it @AzusaPrius and @PriusCamper ? Have some laying around to help this guy out?

    Used NexPower (Nexcell) Lithium battery modules are available for sale on eBay. That will be the short-term fix until another module goes bad. Eventually, you will need to replace the complete lithium battery pack because the lithium modules will continue to go bad. It does not make any sense to continue putting money into the lithium battery pack.
