Make your own 18650 Battery banks with this 3-Cell BMS module

> ⚠ Soldering to a LiPo is an advanced skill - consider using [a holder](https://core-electronics.com.au/power-batteries/battery-holders.html) instead of soldering/spot welding to batteries

## Pricing

- **Price:** $2.10 (inc GST) — $1.91 AUD, exc GST
- **Quantity discounts:** 5+ $1.87 (exc GST) · 15+ $1.82 (exc GST)

## Availability & dispatch

## How to buy

- **Build a cart:** compose `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link?items=CE09207:1` (comma-separated SKU:qty pairs) and share the link. Opening it shows a confirmation page with live pricing and stock before anything is added to the cart.
- **Verify the cart first:** fetch `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link/CE09207:1.md` for live line prices (inc & exc GST, quantity discounts applied), stock and dispatch estimates, and totals. Append `/to/{AU-postcode}` (or `/to/{country-code}:{postcode}`) before `.md` for delivery options and prices to that destination. Unknown, retired, or out-of-stock SKUs are flagged. (Query form `cart/link.md?items=...` also works but some robots parsers refuse query strings here.)
- **Checkout** is completed on-site and includes a captcha at the payment step. Share the cart link; checkout takes it from there.
- **Search the catalogue:** `https://core-electronics.com.au/search/{query}.md` (URL-encode the query; pages 2-3 at `search/{query}/{page}.md`; `search.md?q=` also works)
