Exhibit 23.1

CONSENT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The Board of Directors and Shareholders of
China BAK Battery, Inc.:
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of China BAK Battery, Inc. and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of September 30, 2012 and 2011, and the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss, shareholders’ equity and cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended September 30, 2012. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. Our audits of the consolidated financial statements included examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of September 30, 2012 and 2011, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended September 30, 2012 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has a working capital deficiency and accumulated deficit from net losses incurred for the year ended September 30, 2012 and prior periods. These factors raise substantial doubts about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plan in regards to these matters is also discussed in note 1 to the consolidated financial statements. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
