We sold some many years ago but our supplier stopped carrying them. I have a client with a fairly large bank of Hawker industrial batteries; 2100ah @ 48v. He is asking about replacing them with Ni-Fe as he has heard that they will last virtually forever, or at least longer than he might. Any thoughts on this? Also, any suggestions of good suppliers?
