[ausev] Battery choice

[Rob]

George,
 
What are the Amp-Hours total?  That's what you need to determine range.
Higher voltage will give you more acceleration (P = IE), but the Amp-Hours
reflect how much storage capacity your system will have.

Hello:

I feel like I'm missing something obvious here:

 

Why choose to use 20-6V batteries @67 LB producing 1340 LB of lead and
120Volts, when

I have space for.. ..  20-8V batteries @69 LB producing 1380 LB of lead and
160Volts?

 

I haven't looked the prices yet.
