I am impatiently waiting for a forthcoming 15Ah custom pack that will fit in a Travel and make it neutral and trim out.
If that works out (and I have seen a pic of a Travel floating in trim...), then I will buy one and probably never use my Tech tube or Dewalt 12 Ah batteries again...
Assuming its price is not based on its weight in gold, of course...

Well... his battery pack has 30 cells and, I think, is a 15 Ah pack. The cells in my Genesis are $5.50 each, in a quantity of 30. So, $165 for that pack, plus a Bluetooth BMS, the other miscellaneous bits, and, of course, you need the spot welder. I'd guess, if you already have the tools, that pack would be roughly $215-ish in materials.
I guess you'd need 40 cells for a 20Ah pack for a BlackTip Tech. So, $220 plus plus. Maybe $270-ish, all in?
