Unless I'm wrong, my understanding is that lithium doesn't drop in voltage as you deplete them like lead acid and the voltage stays high right up until they reach capacity. So the only accurate way to gauge loss is through a battery monitor watching the draw from the system. But drain from low temp which I don't even know if it's a thing wouldn't be tracked with a monitor. You'd have to draw it down when you get it ready in the spring and watch the monitor to see how long it lasts. That would be the sure way. But I don't think they lose much from temp. I just understand they perform better at optimal Temps and worst at extremes. There are experts in this list so I'll let them chime in and maybe learn a thing or two 😁

Very interesting, Dan. Thank you for the information. No doubt your batteries are of nobler pedigree than mine. I was always over-protective of our kids as they were growing up, but it never did me or them any harm. In any case, there's still the matter of getting one of those 48v monoliths into my motor space without a hoist and without cutting the opening bigger.
To each his own, I guess!
You're on Erie, then; what port?
Cheers!
