Why this bank

60Ah of SCiB Support for a 20K RMS Amplifier

A system operating at this level needs more than an amplifier power rating and a large battery label. The 60Ah SCiB bank provides high-current support, but real output still depends on charging capacity, voltage, cable size, fusing, grounding, installation and the system’s operating time.

  • 3Ah Toshiba SCiB cells rated by Evolution Lithium at 40C continuous and 75C burst.
  • 60Ah × 40C = 2,400A calculated design-current capability before installation and charging-system limits are considered.
  • Low cell resistance supports strong transient delivery and rapid recharge between runs.
  • The bank must be mounted away from under-bonnet heat with correctly sized conductors and protection.
