A low voltage pack should use 200ah cells. Then you'll get long range and long pack life. Of course it will cost more like $10K. Al - Original Message - From: "Lawrence Rhodes" To: "Electric Vehicle Discussion List" Sent: Thursday, April 04, 2013 7:48 PM Subject: [EVDL] 100 or 200ah

Is 14.4kWh*0.8=11.5kWh going to give you the range you want? For me that wouldn't be a long range EV. I would recommend going with the CALB CA (gray) series of cells since they are rated for a higher discharge rate and the voltage doesn't sag as much as an equivalent TS or the CALB SA (blue) serie

Old-timers will recall the early to mid 1960s, when generally only land yachts had power steering and power brakes. Compacts (Falcon, Chevy II, Valiant, Rambler American) and small cars (VW, Opel, Datsun, Toyota) didn't need them and didn't have them. They were optional on mid-size cars; the
