Actually, the EV1 used the 12 volt version of the Delphi battery. Same physical dimensions as the 8 volt, but more cells. I have a stack of dead ones at my house (the original pack plus spares from my Civic EV) Unfortunately, while I am only planning on sending them to recycling, they are in too poor a condition to consider putting in an EV. Most are down to less than 15 AH of capacity from the original 53 AH, and some are shorting and swelling.
