Great info Alan. Do you know if those batteries are soild or do they contain air? I am wanting to do compensated batteries for my new submarine to keep the weight down.
Thanks,
Scott Waters

Scott,
the DW2000s are using lithium iron batteries manufactured by this
North America company...
http://beckettenergy.com/advanced-maritime-battery-systems/
At the bottom of the page is a link to their dealings with Nuytco.
The DW2000 batteries are in sealed pods as per usual.
There is a new battery technology that the electric car market is excited about;
lithium sulphur. They have already proven to be 5 x more energy dense than
lithium polymer batteries. They are also expected to be cheaper than lead acid
per kilowatt of energy. I am hoping they will be available in a couple of years
when I finish my next sub. So I am designing to have battery pods that will
be fitted with lead acid batteries, but are hoping I can put lithiuym sulphur
in them. What I am trying to do is avoid spending a huge amount on a lithium
battery that will soon be superceded by the lithium sulphur or lithium air.

I am working on my new sub design and am trying to do everything possable to keep the weight down. One of my thoughts is to not use AGM batteries and use lithium. A few questions about lithium batteries. Does anyone have a source for them? Also are they completely filled so you could compensate them? Maybe use the enclosure like Deep Sea Power and Light?
Thanks,
Scott Waters
