This blog includes personal things of interest including electric vehicle conversion. I have documented the conversion of a petrol (gas) powered vehicle to Electric. http://www.austinev.org/evalbum/1149.
The blog now documents the conversion of a BMW E30 to electric.
They seem to cope better than Lead Acid on high discharge. Here are the specs of the 2 models I am interested in.

Hi Malcolm,
I like your blog! I'm doing a similar conversion (planning stages)and have looked at lots of batteries as well. I finally ended up putting a bunch of them in a spread sheet to see which gave me the most Wh/lb and the best Wh/$ (1 hour rate) ratio. So far these are the batteries that have come out on top for me...

Universal Battery UB12350 AGM
TNR 12V33 (AKA PS-12350)
Union MX-12340
Interstate Battery DCM0035
PowerSonic PS-12350 AGM
The UB12350 seems to always come out on top mainly due to cost.
Take care, Bill
Thanks for the tip Bill. I will check them out.
