Build your System Voltage by putting these Lithium Iron Phosphate “Packs” in Series. Two packs would make 96 volts and Three Packs would make a 144 Volt System. Thus, for under $20,000 you can have over 2,000 fully Drained Cycles. At over 100 miles by Pack Life this would be well over 200,000 miles before you would need to replace your pack.

The 200 Amp/Hr Batteries have a C3 Continuous Rating of 600 Amps and a Peak of up to C11 or 2200 amps.

Thanks for that info, I’m trying to find the cheapest lifepo batteries. This company Coolgreencar is selling 16 KWH for $16,000 the site mentioned above is 48 volt for $6,395 Could someone help me figure out the difference.

at $16,000 for 16 KWh = $1000 per KWH

The other one is 48 volts times 200 amp hours =9.6 KWH. $6400 for 9.6 KWH = $666 per KWH, about 2/3 the price
