Very interesting. On the eBay Auction they say you can get a half-pack
for $2160.

Now, these modules don't seem to be quite as good as a new LEAF cell
which are rated at 66 Ah new.

On the eBay auction they are rating them at 55-58Ah which would be
expected for a 2-3 year old LEAF pack in a typical climate.

On their website their own test rates it at 62 Ah for a supposedly new
module. Not sure why the new ones are rated lower than expected here.
Perhaps not fully broken in? For $125 I would be tempted to buy one
just to fully test it out and run it through a few cycles on my
Lithium battery charger. If nothing else, it'd make a good bookend!
