[ausev] E Mail - Porsche 911

[Aaron Choate]

Feel free to correct me, but with a car that light a 9 should be plenty to
make a fun car.  An 8 would probably do for acceptable.  The 11 is if you
want a drag racer...

12 volt AGMs are going to provide sports car feel at the expense of some
range and reduced longevity (cycles) from the pack.  Not sure about how much
space is available in the car, but you may have some difficulty getting
enough 8 or 6 volt flooded batteries in there to get your voltage up.  I
would be curious to see how they might lay out.

We have been doing some work with Lithium Iron Phosphate, but they are
indeed expensive.  Once we have the Mazda 3 on the road and tested, we'll
let everybody know what we think.
