Up to date thread for best battery deals/points of purchase?

I'm putting an electric bike together, one piece at a time.
Here's the hub thread: http://www.bikeforums.net/showthread...-hub-questions

When i'm done, i'll link everything in a single thread with pics of the final project.

So where's some of the better places to buy batteries from?
I'm particularly interested in something around 48v-60v @ 20ah - 30ah in a LiFePO4 battery pack.

I had been looking at BMS, because they have some nice compact batteries based on large sized LiFePO4 batteries. I particularly like their packs built around the big 40152 size batteries.
But i'm reading bad things about their customer service, so that's making me double think them as a source.

Next up I just spotted this place, and they've got really good prices, although the batteries are fairly large. I'm guessing they use a ton of 18650 batteries in their packs.

Anyone used this site yet for a purchase?

So toss your favorite links in here, and hopefully there will be a consensus or two to choose from.
