<DIV>As a side note, if you use the 2YS31 Surrettes, as I did for a single 48V
string about a year ago. You may want to have them shipped from Canada as
a batch. I'm almost certain that my pack of 24 2v cells was a mixture of
manufacture dates, 3 of which were in the "distribution chain" for too
long. So I have 3 cells that, despite the hours and hours and days of
charging I cannot get above SG 1.252. The rest of the cells are in the
1.268~1.275 range after EQ. Yes, I've talked to Steve Higgins about this a
couple times....so far, I don't have the answer I would like after having spent
a very large chunk on $$ on what I'm hoping is a 15 year pack.</DIV>

<DIV>I am consulting on a job that requires an 8000 Ahr battery bank.
This is quite a bit beyond my normal battery bank realm. What
