[RE-wrenches] Lithium batteries.....

[John Veix]

Hi there,

I have a customer with a hot air balloon doesn't want to use F.L.A. deep cycle battery due to weight factors, but wants to use Li instead - and also wants to use  PV to charge it.

I have never looked into this, but he seems to think the Li battery charges at 16.8v.  The battery will be small, probably about 10 a/h and will be used for a transponder.

Can anyone enlighten me about the feasibility of this application.

                                                                    cheers,            John Veix, N.Z.
