Nearly 3 grand for a battery with the same capacity of two deep cycle
lead acid batteries costing £150?

That\'s the price in the UK for Lipo batteries.

Lithium is for phones and torches. For large capacity I always use lead. Lithium is stupidly priced.

As if the idiot wanker had a clue.

senile smartass, blathered again:

How much lead do you use? I\'d be surprised it\'s more than your starter
battery.

Have you given up resisting that trolling gay Scottish wanker\'s lure, you
pathological senile smartass? Having an opportunity to keep smartassing is
obviously of the utmost importance to you. <BG>

If only he does some simple calculations.

12V 35A 420Whr
8\"x7\"x5\"
24 pounds

To go 100 miles, 33 kWhr, he needs 78 of them, or 1950 pounds.
And deep cycle lead acid is only good for around 200 cycles,
or replace them in a year or 2.
Assuming that he can fit them all in his back seat.
