Very nice battery setup Mike! Those are Hyperions, aren't they?

You should get more than 100 cycles with Hyperion Quality.

I really like the boxes.

I wish someone would come up with a massive multiple cell holder for 18650's. It would be nice to re-create the Tesla Roadster setup.

The world record holder for longest distance traveled on a single charge was an EV project created by a Tech Class in Japan.

The small car traveled over 800 miles on a single charge.
