<div dir="ltr"><div>Be prepared to pay a pretty penny for the SWE batteries. Last time I checked they were going to cost more than the submarine. Other option would be "Battle Born" batteries with build in BMS and build your own pressure case if you really need them to go outside the pressure hull. These LiFePo4 batteries also come with a 10yr warranty which is certainly worth looking into.</div><div><br></div><div><a href="https://battlebornbatteries.com/">https://battlebornbatteries.com/</a></div><div><br></div><div><div><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_signature" data-smartmail="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div>Best Regards,<br>David Colombo<br><img src="http://static.squarespace.com/static/533310a9e4b0fba62008a464/t/5339c1f2e4b041bac4e25d1b/1396294132055/?format=500w" width="200" height="110"><br>804 College Ave<br>Santa Rosa, CA. 95404<br>(707) 536-1424<br><a href="http://www.SeaQuestor.com" target="_blank">www.SeaQuestor.com</a><br><br></div></div></div></div><br></div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Tue, Dec 3, 2019 at 2:37 PM Alan via Personal_Submersibles <<a href="mailto:personal_submersibles@psubs.org">personal_submersibles@psubs.org</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div dir="auto"><div></div><div>Hi Beram,</div><div>there is a firm that makes lithium battery packs for underwater use.</div><div><a href="https://www.swe.com/" target="_blank">https://www.swe.com/</a></div><div>What depth do you want them to go down to?
