Sixty amps isn't enough current to drive the ET and handle all the
accessories. Or do you mean 60 amp HOURS?
FYI, Thundersky has a pretty bad rep over at the EVDL (road EV list). A
few
years ago a group of people bought a batch, and TS included a large number
of old, stale cells that didn't even come close to meeting their specs.
They have never been able to get any kind of refund or replacements from
Thundersky. (This seems to be SOP for China Inc.)
The consensus seems to be that to get good product, you probably need to
literally fly over to China and hand-select the cells, or at least
supervise
the process personally.

Their talk was the talk of sordid buccaneers: it was
reckless without hardihood, greedy without audacity,
and cruel without courage; there was not an atom of
foresight ... in the whole batch of them, and they did
not seem aware these things are wanted for the work of
the world.
