I'm assuming these datasheets are from the new, steel encased batteries - these are slightly heavier, and therefore have a slightly lower energy density than the batteries in my car.
Those LiON batteries look very interesting - there's no doubt that LiON beats the performance of NiZn, hands down, although the management issues involved with it are, from all accounts, formidible. Just for my education, could you state your source for the LiON pack?
