Well, first of all I see David has left the Bluebird building. Congrats on your new ride. David, I set the charger to stop at 13.8 pack voltage, which results in a resting pack voltage of about 13.3. So I am not really charging them to the max. And I cut the charger back on closer to 70% discharged than 80%. I am not very worried about it any more. They just don't seem to care.
Clarke,
For a 1000aHr system, you could plan on about 4k for the batteries, and another 500 for BMS and fru fru. If you have to change your charger inverter then another 2000 for that. The battery cost is easy to estimate, the peripheral stuff will depend on the capabilites of your charger, and your solar charger.
