650 bucks just invested in a final battery for the vehicle. There is some risk because this is a non-traditional set up, with ongoing charging from regenerative braking, and solar at the same time as output to the motor. As usual, going where no one has gone before.
But experience, very long arduous careful selection, and some advice from an expert, it should be okay.
And it should provide a tremendous safety factor and very very long life for this battery setup now.
Lithium ion batteries wear out not so much because of the Cycles, but because of the Heat and strain in two different situations, pushing out the last little bit of energy, and being charged all the way to the top.
This final battery will add dramatic capacity and a fourth, or third, battery running in parallel which dramatically, hugely, reduces those fatigue factors on each individual battery. The best estimate of this procurement is that if this vehicle runs another 10 years and 40,000 miles quite possibly no more batteries will need to be purchased.
