[QUOTE="hispls, post: 8752008, member: 614752"] You will be drawing more than that until the alternator can load down. Those cells are MAX rated 10C (800A out of your 80AH bank). I have not pushed mine anywhere close to that. Personally I'd suggest doubling your LTO bank, if you can triple it you would have a hard time getting your volt meter to move more than a couple tenths of a volt, but double should be a good bit safer. Keep in mind, if used 1C those cells are meant to give like 24,000 cycles. That cycle life drops quickly as the charge/discharge demand increases as will overall discharge performance. I look at mine as a very long term investment and I paid high going in so that I'd optimize life expectancy and have worry free performance along the way. [/QUOTE]
