Nice selection on the Hawkers. That's the same batteries we're putting in
our Fuel Cell hybrid, 2000 Suburban. Except we use 28 of them for a 336V
nominal pack. We're getting the truck this month with the hopes of having
three ballard fuel cells working by june. The drivetrain (my team) is using
2 EV2000 GE AC induction drives/inverters. Each are 100kw peak ~80kw
continuous. It should haul a$$. I've got to go rip the motor out of our
Baker built, EV2000 powered ,C/K pickup and swap in an older style
straight-cut gear motor this morning. Should be fun.
good luck
