[QUOTE="mat3833, post: 8823763, member: 587645"] [ATTACH type="full" alt="45655"]45655[/ATTACH] If you look at my bank you can see its 12 individual cells. 6 pairs of 2. My bank is an 80AH 6s2p bank. I charge at 14.4v which is way below this banks maximum charge voltage. LTO likes about 2.7v-2.8v per cell so 14v on a 5s bank is safe. 14.4v on a 5s is still "safe" but I opted to run 6s and make my bank happier. I can theoretically charge at 17v and be perfectly fine. I've jumped a Cummins straight 6, 6.0 powerstroke, and an old bobcat with my bank all in the span of about 30 minutes, played music for another 30 minutes, and then started my car just fine, lol. I've been intentionally pushing my bank to see what I can get away with, and honestly I don't think it will let me down. I haven't finished cleaning everything up and building the final mount for it, but it's bolted to the base so it can't move. It weighs about 60ish pounds, maybe a bit more not really sure.
