I could be wrong but here's how I see it: First of all it takes five wired in series just to produce 12v @ 20aH and another five wired in series then paralleled with the former to produce 12v @ 40aH. Or wire them all in series to produce 2.4v @ 200aH. Or buy 10 for 10 @ $125 per, and wire them up to get 12v @ 200aH. $1250 for 200ah??? Are you kidding?
Secondly, the money that Battery Hook-Up is asking for the batteries suggests that they are used. The price suggesting that they're used while hype suggests they're new is confusing if not outright deceptive.
Last but not least. LTO batteries are not recommended for home use. Will knows LTO batteries; he has tested LTO batteries; and if you ask him, I don't think he'd recommend them for home use either.
Note: the voltage in my first point is based on the nominal voltage of an LTO battery. If that stat isn't bad enough, a bank of 5 LTO's at their optimal voltage is only 13v and bank of six, 15.6v. Adding their 10c discharge rate to the equation makes LTO batteries best suited for eBikes, eBoards and such. Worst thing that can happen in those situations would be someone's butt catching on fire or their shoes blown off.
