hi, im looking for a battery that can run a 160kw nissan leaf motor/inverter

can anyone tell me if the older 8.7kwh gte cells have higher discharge rate than the newer 13kwh?

i understand that it will be pushing these cells very close to their maximum limit
and the packs internal fuses may need to be changed

any other suitable battery modules that i should be looking at? sub 100kg 96s capable of 400a discharge

cheers Ben

this ukranian website evcell.com.ua states

samsung sdi 28ah cell CM0280R0001D max discharge 280a
https://evcell.com.ua/shop/samsung-28ah-104-wh-li-ion/

samsung sdi 37ah cell CS0370RT001A max discharge 370А
https://evcell.com.ua/shop/samsung-37ah-137-wh-li-ion/

not even sure if these are the correct cells, or if the discharge rates are to be trusted, i thought lower capacity would equate to higher power output, maybe this is an incorrect assumption, and the older battery pack is older tech?
