BSFC...like maybe .3lb/hp/hr. Ain't too good but will run on straight peanut/coolikg oil.
Today I got a sparkling deal on 10, yup TEN NEW Northstar AGM Energy 1 batteries, 170 amp hours, 12 volts, 500+ discharge cycles, long life, etc. These brutes weigh 128lbs each. This is half the EV vehicle costs. One is more powerful than an 8D battery for a semi truck but is half the size, much less finicky. The 1 banger diesel and big frame 150 amp alternator will charge the system quite well. The regulator was designed to charge AGM batteries.
Now if I can get them out of the pickup truck without busting my back, I will be happy.
I'm stuck in Californicate. I hope to outlive the dopers, pesto eaters, and screwballs. I want to be the only kid on the block with lights, freezers, ammo, and tons of barter supplies when the Big One hits. No way I could leave here. Besides, no gaters on my porch.
