Battery Construction

The Saker bikini pack is made up of two 5kWh batteries (which are in turn made up of twenty two of our A123 sub modules, which are 227.7 Wh each), one either side of the motor (the Saker will run on one battery pack, but it is designed to have 2 batteries for HCS race spec performance).

Here is our task list to complete both batteries and the commissioning:
