The DIY 7 cell pack referenced in my original post is $1090. From what I gathered reading threads, 14 cell pack is not really needed. 6, 8v Trojan T-875s are over $900. Seems the couple hundred dollar buy in price + my labor would be worth it?

Lithium Pack Specifications:
Average voltage: 53.2V
Maximum charge voltage: 58.8V
Minimum voltage: 42.0V
Capacity rated: 62Ah/3300Wh
Battery type: Lithium-ion
Size assembled 13.5" x 10" x 8.75"h
Total weight: approx. 60lb.
