The target weight for a boat I am constructing is 300 lbs, so it can be dragged up on the beach.
I asked a vendor for a quote on a 12V 200 Ah Life battery. He asked what I wanted it for. I told him to replace a pair of Wal-mart group 29 deep cycle batteries and save 100 pounds in weight. He then recommended
"My take on your project would be to use (1) 12V / 30Ah LiFeBATT Lithium prismatic cell battery. Cost = $ 550.00 plus $150 shipping. Weight = 13 LBS."
A 12V 45Ah lead acid battery weighs the same as what he quoted, and only costs 1/5 to 1/4 as much. If I wanted woefully inadequate capacity, I'd do that.
What are these batteries for?
