Volts

SLA Batteries

Most SLA (Sealed Lead Acid) batteries will be 12 volt batteries. If you are running at 24 volts you'll need two batteries, 36 volt requires 3 batteries, and 48 volts requires 4 batteries. It's pretty simple math. Some teams build “battery packs” consisting of multiple batteries, which can make charging and swapping batteries a little easier.

Leaf Cells

Note that Leaf Cells tend to come in packs that are 7.3 volts each, so you'll need to do the math like so:

Desired Voltage Actual Voltage Number of Leaf Cells
2421.93
2429.24
3636.55
4843.86
4851.17
