Hi Brion & Stumble,
Thanks for your replies: you both make very valid points.
Stumble, sorry , I certainly didn't mean to question any individual's integrity, but many industry players cannot be relied on for objective comments (have a look at some of the threads on Cruisers Forum regarding LiFePO4 batteries to see that). So, thanks for posting some figures and an interpretation of what that means in a practical sense.
In our case, because we'll be retrofitting and the plates will be encapsulated, I'll be looking to replace with identically sized plates, which should mean that they'll be over-engineered compared to the SS ones. Thus we won't face any issues regarding under-engineering as per Stumble's comments.
I'll be looking at this over the next month and may come back with some more questions.
Again, thanks for your comments: they've certainly validated what my original position was.
Cheers,
Paul.
