Hay everyone

I have a question about the batteryspace li polymer battery ordering
I'll buy that with the recommended charger and a fire bag for use when charging.

Also when I buy the stuff from bs, does this apply to me and which HAZ MAT should I get?


" LITHIUM BATTERY SHIPPING REGULATIONS THAT YOU NEED TO KNOW



Hazard Materials Shipping Regulation. Due to the Department of Transportation's regulations for shipping Lithium battery, there is an additional hazard material handling cost that UPS and FedEx charge "per box" that is NOT included as part of the shipping cost.


Domestic Ground
/BOX
Domestic Next day/2nd Day/3rd Day
/BOX
Canada / International
/BOX




To make sure your packages can be shipped without delay, please also add this into the shopping cart accordingly for Li-ion/ Polymer/LiFePO4/LiMnNi battery.

Ground HAZ MAT UN Approved cell/battery*/Prototypes/non UN 38.3 test batteries
Air HAZ MAT UN Approved cell/battery* only
Canada HAZ MAT UN Approved cell/battery* only
International HAZ MAT UN Approved cell/battery* only


*If we didn't indicate the cell / battery is UN approved in the product's title line, then it is not UN tested yet, please choose UPS Ground. All Haz Mat shippment might be delayed due to shipping carriers check points. Delivery time can not be guaranteed on all shipping method.

This fee is for one package only, if there is more than one package needed, we will contact you."

My total cost of the three items is 70.98€ in my currency, so I have to pay that price plus the fee for ups or FedEx for the HAZ MAT thing.

I won't use USPS for shipping the battery as they have issues with it, so I'll use UPS or FEDEX.

That's all I have to pay for ordering my battery and stuff from BS?

No other hidden costs etc?

thanx and hope somebody can help me out on this :)

It sounds like you can use UPS Ground.
Although I don't think they can get to where you live by ground...

Um, yeah I could,
But... It's for domestic destinations meaning within the us,
Since I live in Europe which is outside the us, I can only use international which you pay a bit more
But okay, it's better for the battery's safety to get to me.

Thanx for helping out with the shipping,
But what about the HAZ MAT thing?
Which do I need to choose best for me?

I think the total cost of this order from BS will be (70.98€ + fee per ups box + HAZ MaT thing ??€)
So it'll be about 200€ or more or less maybe.

Have you looked for a seller in your country?

Um, I'm not sure what you mean exactly,
What seller in my country? For li poly batteries?
 
Re: Ordering a Li Polymer battery from batteryspace cost HEL

Yes, so you don't have to pay international shipping and the hazmat fee. I don't know of a seller, it would be up to you to find one.

I'm not from the UK, but a bit of google searching came up with this. You could get 4 for 5200 mAh at 7.4v for only like 24 euros, including free shipping. There may be better solutions, but this is a start. Hope I can help :)

thanx for the help, you guys :)

i think i have figured out the total cost with regards to UPS per box charge and HAZ mat fee.

it' goes as this:

Code:
	Item		Price	Quantity	Total	
		
Fire Retardant Bag: 295mmx230mmx75mm --- Reduce the chance of damage if caught fire
Part Number: LI-ION-SAFER
15.25€	

15.25€	


		
Smart Charger (1.2A) for 7.4V Li-ion/Polymer Rechargeable Battery Pack -- UL/CE listed
Part Number: CH-L7412
17.54€	

17.54€	


		
Polymer Li-Ion Battery: 7.4V 5Ah (37Wh, 7A rate) battery module (3.0)
Part Number: PL-946474-2S-WR
38.2€	

38.2€

and the cost for Hazard Materials Shipping Regulation is:

Canada / International:  34.74€/BOX

and the HAZ MAT thing for li ion/poly etc:

"To make sure your packages can be shipped without delay, please also add this into the shopping cart accordingly for Li-ion/ Polymer/LiFePO4/LiMnNi battery.

Ground HAZ MAT	UN Approved cell/battery*/Prototypes/non UN 38.3 test batteries

Air HAZ MAT	UN Approved cell/battery* only

Canada HAZ MAT	UN Approved cell/battery* only

International HAZ MAT	UN Approved cell/battery* only


*If we didn't indicate the cell / battery is UN approved in the product's title line, then it is not UN tested yet, please choose UPS Ground. All Haz Mat shippment might be delayed due to shipping carriers check points. Delivery time can not be guaranteed on all shipping method."

since my battery (li polymer 7.4v 5000mah) is not UN, i don't see UN in the tile,
so for the HAZ MAT i should use UPS ground as BS states above.

so, 

total cost: 70.98 + 34.74 + 21.23 = 126.95€

the HAZ MAT UPS ground is the correct one to get for my case, correct?

I don't know if you can use UPS ground to ship internationally. I would suggest that you email batteryspace and get confirmation from them that what you plan on doing is correct. None of us work there, so we're just guessing.
