The batteries

I have never found these concord AGM aircraft batteries used in a EV before.  Mostly likely because of the price. They run close to $500 a piece but let's just say I got them for CONSIDERABLY less then that. :)  They are 30 lbs each, 24V 15ah AGMs that are rated to put of 850amps for 10 seconds (that is over 60C!).  Now these batteries have never been used but they are old so I suspect them to sag considerably.  I have extras so I checked them all and and there are enough that have not self drained too low to make a decent pack.  As far as what current I will get well there is only one way to find out. :)
