Boat Forum / Building / February 2006Nickel Iron batteries?
Supposedly these are better than lead acid for energy density and discharge capacity. Anyone ever had experience with them?

For what it's worth. I used a NiFe cell for a caving lamp for a while. They were (are?) standard miner's issue.

I've seen them installed in a sailboat for house batteries, but wasn't close to them. I thought the energy density and voltage were lower and they'll take a lot more abuse, electrical and bashing about, than lead acid.
