Very good point! I had not spotted that. I would also note that the total "energy" or Ahr are fairly low compared to a typical battery. I'm wondering if these would not be better suited as a backup than a primary. Especially for all the electronics we are seeing these days in the cockpit.

Hi All

We installed a Shorai battery in the Elite , have had no issues at all. We don't suffer the extreme temps you have but can get down to 0 c at times. Battery weighs 4.9 lbs and is 550 c/ amps. Turns the o 360 fine. Battery mounted on the fire wall, will try to attach pic
