Re: (ET) 94 S-10 conversion



I've found mine on ole Ebay, but at this point I'd say check the local junkyards and go from there.

Well, if you have 20 T105's then you have a 200ah 120v pack. The big
question is how much current can your controller pull at a shot, if it's
a 50kw then you're probably drawing around 400-500 amps peak.

If you went with say Leaf batteries you'd need to split the pack in half
then run both strings in parallel. Or get 2 leaf packs worth and run 4
strings in parallel. Either way you would need a custom BMS.

What's the peak input voltage on your controller? I have some of the USE
data up at https://www.crystel.com/use <https://www.crystel.com/use>
