battery theory

	size of NP18-12B: 3in x 7in x 6in (7.62cm x 17.78cm x 15.24cm)
	weight (1of): 8.2kg
	capacity: 12v, 17.2Ah

	6of: 49.2 kg.

	4of: 32.8 kg

	3of: 24.6 kg

	500W 36V motor = 13.8 amps.

	running 6of continuously:
	82.8 amps.

	60min * 17.2Ah / 82.8A = 12.46 minutes.

	cool!  6of 17.2Ah batteries is enough for 12 minutes, continuous
	usage of a 500W motor.

	therefore 3of 17.2Ah batteries is enough for 6 minutes, continuous
	usage of a 500W motor.
