RE: nubie questions
It seems to me that Hawkers & Optimas are comparably expensive, at
least where I am.
Hawkers & Optimas offer fairly similar performance, but the
disadvantage of YTs is that one size doesn't fit all, especially when
converting a sub-2000lb vehicle. Hawker offers other sizes so that
one has option of choosing between a couple of different pack voltages
for the same pack weight.
For example, assuming a 400# pack limitation, YTs restrict you to a 108V
maximum pack while the Hawker choices include the following maximums:
84V (7xG70)
144V (12xG38/G42)
168V (14-G16 buddy-pairs)
204V (17xG26)
216V (18-G13 buddy-pairs)
348V (29xG16)
444V(!) (37xG13)
Cheers,
Roger.

You don't have much money but are planning on AC motors and Hawker
batteries? Optima Yellow Tops(YTs) are just as good as the Hawkers and a
whole lot cheaper. The YTs are basically the same thing as the Hawker
Cyclons only much bigger.
