I plan on using them teamed up with my 28 round cell battey I made about 6 months. I will have 2 strings of AMP20 cells with 7 strings of round cells to:
Run glow plugs for up to 10 seconds, 100 amps
Crank the diesel, 350 amps
Occasionally use the intake heaters for 30 seconds up to 1 minute, 100 amps
Some times i use the intake heater and glow coils together.
The heaters are on manual controls so the batteries wont have to crank with heating elements on.
I plan on installing a charge limiting resistor on a time delay, mostly to protect the alternator from the full load the lithium batteries tend to put on it after start up.
I have a 12 watt soldering pen on a varrible voltage controler, I usually run it about 6 watts, I can keep the heat down and use heat sinks.
