    Greetings everyone. I am a fellow Freefly Cinestar / Alta / Movi w/ Movi Controller owner and am also a Tattu battery distributor in the US. I am considering placing a large order or group buy and am wondering if anyone is interested in getting in on some discounted batteries. I can get anything Tattu sells (from small accessory batteries to their new 30,000mAh 6 cell). I am getting pricing details put together shortly and will update this post with pricing for the batteries that people are interested in. To help determine how low I can get the pricing, either reply or shoot me a PM with the type and quantity you might be interested in. The more we buy the better pricing I can arrange. Batteries that are in stock in the US warehouse will ship immediately. I am targeting an order date about 12/15 which hopefully gives people enough time to determine their battery needs and get back to me.

    PRICE UPDATE:
    Tattu 6S 10,000mAh 25C $190 ($280 retail - commonly sold around $250)
    Tattu 6S 16,000mAh 15C $250 ($400 retail - currently on a big sale for $300)

    PRE ORDER TATTU PLUS:
    Tattu+ 6S 16,000mAh 15C $250 ($400 retail - currently on a big sale for $300)

    Great price. I bought a bunch of 10,000 6S batteries from Michael already and he got them to me lightning fast. I plan on taking advantage of this group offer too. Thanks again Michael, get them while you can everyone.

    I'll second Dave's testimony.

    First, you can't beat Tattu. Their quality and reputation are discussed everywhere. The 10,000's are solid and so far have very low IR. Mike McVay is very dependable, trustworthy and generous to extend that discount to the board family.

    Attached is a shipment I received (very fast) a couple weeks ago.

    Additionally, you might want to check out some custom cases that Mike has that hod 6 in very tight and safe custom made foam. I LOVE them. They are a perfect size and weight. If any one is interested in taking a look, I'd be happy to post a picture. I probably will tomorrow anyway. I plan to pick up 3 or 4 of these cases to transport these batteries in.

    SO, if you have any requirements for Tattus, take a serious look at this opportunity.

    Just placed an order for 6 10000mAh Tattu packs with Michael. He has been really awesome to work with in getting the right batteries and connectors picked out and ordered. And the price is very good. He answered a slew of questions and offered a lot of great advice on getting the best performance out of the packs – ask him how many of them he owns and flies :)

    Takes a lot of the anxiety out of Lipo selection and buying to have a knowledgeable & friendly vendor.

    Edit 12/7/15: Already shipped and heading this way – thanks Michael!

    Will do. Won't be at the shop till tomorrow afternoon late EDT, but I'll take s shot.

    FWIW, I would NOT have seen the value/utility of this case until I got one and loaded it up.

    Thanks guys - I appreciate all the good feedback.

    Matt: I just PM'd your tracking numbers to you.

    Mike: If you don't have a chance to post the photo of your case, I can post one for Jason to see. I certainly have enough of them!

    Thanks!

    Here's the case that Michael has for the 10,000's. (Just iPhone pics)

    First a general inside detail shot. The 6 cutouts are super firm. the batteries don't move a bit. There is a place for the voltage tester and a couple tools. It looks like a big case but it's not.

    Here it is from the outside. I put a battery on top and a quarter as a scale. The case is surprisingly small. (My workbench is usually VERY tidy, I was just organizing)

    IMG_4266.jpg

    AND, finally, with 4 batteries and misc, the case ends up being very manageable weight wise.

    Mike: Thanks for the post - I feel like my little battery case got got a pro level review!

    When I put the batteries in, I always put them in with the discharge wires like you have them in the lower left battery and run them across the top of the battery to the plug cut out when the battery is fully charged - or to one of the side cut outs when the battery has been discharged. I post a photo later tonight.

    Nice looking box, Michael. Them's one big number of electrons wanting to be at the positive electrode.
    I put a laminated label on my batteries printed with C D S -- then use a white board marker to mark with big dot whether the batteries are charges, discharged, or at storage voltage. You can wipe of the marker deliberately without too much problem, but it stays on pretty well with normal handling -- there's usually some trace of the black marker visible unless you specifically wipe it off with a finger tip.

    Andy.

    Adam: No problem. Let me get a shipping quote on that for you and also find out if I can have them shipped to you from the warehouse in Germany. I will let you know as soon as I get an answer.

    Michael, thank you! That price is perfect! What about those small 1300mAh 75C 3S (or maybe 45C... 75C is overkill for me)?
    If it will be possible to send from German warehouse I would be very grateful!!
    Thank you.

    Adam: it appears as though it is not possible to send from the US to the Czech Republic. With a little paperwork, I can establish my dealer account for the warehouse in Germany. However, the batteries for are interested in are not in stock there. Would you be interested in a different battery or would you prefer to wait for the next shipment of 16,000mAh batteries? Also, shipping to you from the Germany warehouse requires the collection of VAT. Let me know what your thoughts are and how you would like to move forward.

    Michael:
    I am interested in Tattu+ 16,000mAh batteries and they are still only for pre-order. So I have to wait :)
    VAT is not problem for me!
    I think we can make a deal. Send me please email to my address: adam.hubalovsky@outlook.com and I will send you exactly what batteries I want and another information you could want (address...).
    Thank you very much!

    Adam: I am going to send you a PM to continue the discussion about shipping, pre-orders, etc (this is how the forum moderators prefer we handle details about individual transactions).

    I was wondering if the order was already made? If not I'm interested in a few 6S 10000mAh, 4 or 5 depending on shipping costs.
    Thanks!
