Battery Pack Revisited

Read this link first on the pros and cons of Exide vs. Yellow Tops. Choosing a battery pack is an exercise in balancing (pun intended) ,

1. range
2. acceleration
3. life-cycle cost
4. initial investment

Not wanting to try something new, I am looking at the following option(s),

1. Lithium Iron Phosphate -- 44x CALB-100Ah (OUT)
   
2. Thunder Sky Lithium Iron Phosphate -- 44x TS-100Ah (OUT)
   
3. Optima Yellow Top -- 16x D27F
   
4. Flooded Lead Acid -- 9x Trojan T-127 (OUT)
   
5. AGM Marine Deep Cycle -- 12x Exide Orbital ORB34DC-36 Sealed VRLA
   

In terms of analysis,

Pack 1

• $140/each = $6160
• 100Ah Pack
  

Pack 2

• 100Ah Pack
  
• 7.7 lbs x 44 = 340 lbs
• 4.0V x 44 = 176 volts Charging
• 3.2V x 44 = 141 Volts Nominal
• 2.8V x 44 = 123 Volts Discharge

Pack 3

• $196/each = $2,352
• 66 C/20 Capacity
• 1025 CCA @ 32F
• 12.25" x 7.00" x 8.75"
  

Pack 4

• $220/each = $2,640
• 150Ah Pack
  

Pack 5

• $200/each = $2,400
• 935 CCA
  
• 100Ah Pack
