and weight of the cells, container material, vent caps,
intercell connectors, and terminals
2. Planned life of the installation and
expected life of the cell design
3. Frequency and depth of discharge
4. Ambient temperature
5. Maintenance requirements for the various
cell designs
6. Shock characteristics of the cell design.
