Heh - the first page of this site is all about patriotism and "buying American", and the very first section of parts has "HIPOWER" batteries, which are from China...

I have had very good response and assistance with them on several products and will probably go with them on the LI’s. There prices are great and stock is here in the states. The PWN Real Force Cells are very interesting. I hadn’t heard of them before but from what I gather they are a good battery. They may also be willing to talk about a group buy of cells.

John,
Your right, I screwed up the calculations. A 200 a-hr Winston cell gives in real life 220 a-hr, so 3.25 (cell voltage) X 220 (a-hr) = 715 w-hr X 16 (# of cells)=
11440 w-hr X 0.8 (80% DOD) = 9152 w-hr. At 5.1 mph that would be 2.61 hours @ 5.1 mph = 13.3 miles.
From all the other's and my testing, the Winston cells give 10%~20% more a-hr than their rating at a 1 C load.
So at 3.1 mph 9152/700=13.07 hours X 3.1 = 40.5 miles.
I bought mine from Balqon.
